Criteria Specification Information

Criteria Specifications for this VCEP
Evidence submitted by expert panel
Phenylketonuria VCEP
The c.755G>C (p.Arg252Pro) variant in PAH has been reported in multiple individuals with PKU (BH4 deficiency excluded, PMID: 21307867). This variant is absent in population databases. This variant was detected in trans with pathogenic variant p.Arg243Gln (PMID: 29316886). Computational evidence supports a deleterious effect. Other missense variants at the p.Arg252 amino acid are pathogenic (p.Arg252Gln/Trp/Gly). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for PAH. PAH-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PP4_Moderate, PM2, PM3, PM5, PP3.
Met criteria codes
PM5
p.Arg252Gln/Trp/Gly pathogenic
PM3
Detected in trans with p.Arg243Gln (P 10 submitters) variable sites in patient genes were aligned with the corresponding sites from the respective parents. PMID: 29316886

PM2
Absent from controls in ExAC, gnomAD, 1000 Genomes, or ESP
PP4_Moderate
PMID 21307867: 5 alleles of p.Arg252Pro in a cohort of Japanese PKU patients. Serum phenylalanine level higher than 0.18mM. analysis of dihydropteridine reductase activity in red blood cells, biopterin loading test and/or pteridine analysis in urine.

PP3
Predicted deleterious in SIFT, PolyPhen2, MutationTaster. REVEL=0.966
