Phenylketonuria VCEP

The c.508C>G (p.His170Asp) variant in PAH has been reported in 1 patient with hyperphenylalaninemia, and 1 patient with benign persistent hyperphenylalaninemia. (PP4; PMID: 11385716). This variant has an extremely low allele frequency (0.00018) in gnomAD (PM2; http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant has 43% enzyme activity (PS3; PMID: 17935162). This variant was detected in trans with R261X, c.60+5G>T, c.1315+1G>A (Pathogenic in ClinVar) (PM3_Strong; PMID: 11385716; PMID: 24941924). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that the c.829T>G variant may impact the protein (PP3). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for PAH. PAH-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PS3, PM3_Strong

PS3

43% residual enzyme activity PMID: 17935162

43% residual enzyme activity PubMed:17935162

PP3
