Phenylketonuria VCEP

The c.694C>G (p.Gln232Glu) variant in PAH has not been reported in the literature in individuals with PKU. It has been co-expressed with p.E178G and showed 55.0% enzyme activity. PMID: 26803807. BioPKU reports a 42% enzyme activity for this variant (PS3; PMID: 12501224). This variant is absent in population databases (PM2). Computational evidence is conflicting. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for PAH. PAH-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PS3, PM2.

PM2

Absent from ExAC, gnomAD, 1000G, ESP

PS3

BioPKU: 42% enzyme activity. The co-expression of p.[E178G];[Q232E] showed 55.0% enzyme activity. PMID: 26803807

A dual eukaryotic vector system with two distinct PAH proteins N-terminally fused to different epitope tags was used to investigate the co-expression of PAH alleles reported in patients with inconsistent phenotypes. PAH variant proteins were transiently co-transfected in COS-7 cells. PAH activity was measured by liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS-MS), and protein expression was measured by Western blot. The co-expression of p.[E178G];[Q232E] showed 55.0% enzyme activity. PubMed:26803807

PP3

Conflicting predictions
