Evidence submitted by expert panel
Phenylketonuria VCEP
The c.612T>G (p.Tyr204Ter) variant in PAH is a null variant (nonsense variant) in exon 6 of 13 in a gene where LOF is a known mechanism of disease, leading to premature truncation and NMD (PVS1). It is present at extremely low frequency in ethnically diverse control databases, with gnomAD AF 0.00000398 (<0.002, the PAH-specific cutoff) (PM2). It has been reported as a heterozygous variant in at least four PKU cases, with known pathogenic variants in at least two cases (PM3_Strong): with a Sicilian PKU case with BH4 deficiency excluded (PMID: 8268925) (PP4_Moderate); in a German PKU case (PMID: 10394930); in one Spanish case with the pathogenic (per PAH VCEP) p.R176L variant (PMID: 10234516); and in one family (2 affected siblings) and 2 additional mild PKU patients with the pathogenic (per PAH VCEP) p.R68S variant (PMID: 23514811). It has also been reported Pathogenic by three labs in ClinVar (variation ID 102758). Classification: Pathogenic Supporting criteria: PVS1, PM2; PM3_Strong; PP4_Moderate
