Criteria Specification Information

Criteria Specifications for this VCEP
Evidence submitted by expert panel
Phenylketonuria VCEP
PAH-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PM2: Extremely low frequency in ExAC (0.00014) and gnomAD (0.0001301); PP3: Deleterious effect predicted in SIFT, PolyPhen2, MutationTaster; PP4_Moderate: Seen in multiple PKU patients. BH4 deficiency excluded in 2 patients. Upgraded per ClinGen Metabolic Workgroup. (PMID:8222245; PMID:11142755); PM3_Strong: R241C seen once in trans with R413P, and once with R243Q, both pathogenic. Upgraded per ClinGen SVI Workgroup. (PMID:11142755); PS3: In vitro PAH R241C mutant was found to have 25% PAH activity of normal. In vivo phenylalanine breath test measured a decreased level in R241C homozygote. (PMID:15319459; PMID:7915167). In summary this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for phenylketonuria in an autosomal recessive manner based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied as specified by the PAH Expert Panel: (PM2, PP3, PP4_Moderate, PM3_Strong, PS3).
