Criteria Specification Information

Evidence submitted by expert panel

Phenylketonuria VCEP

The c.350delC variant in PAH has been previously reported in at least 2 Arab-Israeli probands with classic PKU (PMID: 18299955; PMID: 18294361); BH4 deficiency was not excluded (PP4). The variant is a frameshift variant occurring in exon 3 of 13 in the canonical transcript of PAH, a gene fulfilling the most recent criteria for LOF being a known disease mechanism (PVS1; see PVS1: Recommendations for Interpreting the Loss of Function PVS1 ACMG/AMP Variant Criteria). It is absent from control databases including ethnically matched individuals, including gnomAD/ExAC, 1000 Genomes, and the Greater Middle East Variome (PM2).

Met criteria codes

• PP4: Found in at least two probands with classic PKU (PMID: 18294361); also reported in 1 proband with classic PKU (PMID: 18299955); however, the publications are by the same author and published in the same year, and use patients from the same medical center (without any additional patient IDs, etc.), so difficult to tell whether it is 3 different probands or 1 overlaps between the 2 publications. Thus conservatively counting as 2 probands with classic PKU.
• PM2: Absent from 1000G, ExAC/gnomAD, ESP, and the Greater Middle East Variome.
• PVS1: Frameshift variant predicted to lead to premature protein truncation in exon 3 of 13 in the canonical transcript of PAH, a gene fulfilling the most recent criteria for LOF being a known disease mechanism (see PVS1: Recommendations for Interpreting the Loss of Function PVS1 ACMG/AMP Variant Criteria).

Not Met criteria codes

• BA1: Absent from 1000G, ExAC/gnomAD, ESP, and the Greater Middle East Variome.
• BS1: Absent from 1000G, ExAC/gnomAD, ESP, and the Greater Middle East Variome.
• BS2: No code specific comments provided, please refer to the summary above or general recommendations provided in the guideline
• PS3: No in-vitro assays performed for this variant.
