Phenylketonuria VCEP

The c.812A>G (p.His271Arg) variant in the PAH gene has been reported in PKU patients in Henan, and France. Dihydropteridine reductase activity, urinary biopterin and neopterin ratio, and tetrahydrobiopterin loading were collected for the Chinese patient. (PMID: 21462123, 26666653, 26503515). This variant was detected with R408W (PMID: 26666653). A deleterious effect is predicted in SIFT, Polyphen-2, MutationTaster, and REVEL=0.969. It has an extremely low frequency in ExAC and gnomAD (MAF=0.00006). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for PAH. PAH-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PM2, PM3, PP4_Moderate, PP3.

PP3

Deleterious effect predicted in SIFT, polyphen2, MutationTaster. REVEL=0.969

PM3

Detected with R408W, PMID: 26666653

Patient genotype: [His271Arg]; [Arg408Trp]. PubMed:26666653

PM2

Extremely low frequency in ExAC and gnomAD (MAF=0.00006)

PP4_Moderate

H271R was detected in PKU patients in Henan, and a classic PKU patient in France. dihydropteridine reductase activity, urinary biopterin and neopterin ratio, and tetrahydrobiopterin loading, were collected for the Chinese patient. PMID: 21462123, 26666653, 26503515

Patients with phenylketonuria (PKU) in Henan province. H271R was detected. PubMed:21462123

p.H21R was detected on 1 allele from Northern China. Plasma phenylalanine (Phe) levels, dihydropteridine reductase activity, urinary biopterin and neopterin ratio, and tetrahydrobiopterin loading, were collected. PubMed:26503515

A total of 364 hyperphenylalaninemic patients, including 42 siblings, were investigated. They represented mixed origin people from 20 French Centers for Inborn Errors of Metabolism. According to their blood Phenylalanine concentration at time of diagnosis, these patients were assigned to one of the three phenotype categories. His271Arg was detected in 1 patient with classic PKU (Phe > 1200 μmol/L). PubMed:26666653
