ClinGen PAH Variant Curation Expert Panel RCV000150088 SCV000852149 pathogenic Phenylketonuria 2018-07-28 reviewed by expert panel curation The c.508C>G (p.His170Asp) variant in PAH has been reported in 1 patient with hyperphenylalaninemia, and 1 patient with benign persistent hyperphenylalaninemia. (PP4; PMID: 11385716). This variant has an extremely low allele frequency (0.00018) in gnomAD (PM2; http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant has 43% enzyme activity (PS3; PMID: 17935162). This variant was detected in trans with R261X, c.60+5G>T, c.1315+1G>A (Pathogenic in ClinVar) (PM3_Strong; PMID: 11385716; PMID: 24941924). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that the c.829T>G variant may impact the protein (PP3). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for PAH. PAH-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PS3, PM3_Strong

GeneDx RCV000078524 SCV000239056 pathogenic not provided 2018-09-24 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The H170D missense variants in the PAH gene has been reported as a pathogenic variant in the PAH Consortium database. The H170D has been reported previously in association with both mild phenylketonuria (PKU) and with hyperphenylalaninemia (Yang et al., 2001; Vela-Amieva et al., 2015). Functional analysis found that H170D is associated with significant residual enzyme activity and is classified as a BH4-responsive variant (Zurfluh et al. 2008).
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000150088 SCV000629195 pathogenic Phenylketonuria 2025-02-03 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces histidine, which is basic and polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 170 of the PAH protein (p.His170Asp). This variant is present in population databases (rs199475655, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with benign persistent hyperphenylalaninemia and hyperphenylalaninemia (PMID: 11385716, 12971421). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 92744). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects PAH function (PMID: 15557004, 17935162). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
