Criteria Specifications for this VCEP
Evidence submitted by expert panel
Phenylketonuria VCEP
The c.591G>C (p.Leu197Phe) variant in PAH has been reported in 3 individuals with classic PKU (BH4 deficiency excluded). (PP4_Moderate; PMID: 18299955). This variant is absent in population databases (PM2). This variant was detected with a pathogenic variant (c.168+1G>A) and twice in the homozygous state (PM3). Multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect (SIFT, PolyPhen2, MutationTaster, REVEL=0.82). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for PAH. PAH-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PP4_Moderate, PM2, PM3, PP3.
