Description

In a study of phenylketonuria (PKU; 261600) in U.S. blacks living in Maryland, Hofman et al. (1991) found that 40% of mutant PAH alleles had 1 of 2 previously undescribed haplotypes. Both of these could be derived from known haplotypes by a single event. One of these haplotypes was characterized by a new MspI restriction site, located in intron 8, which was present in 5 of 16 black mutant alleles but was not found in 60 U.S. black controls, 20 U.S. Caucasian controls, or 20 Caucasian mutant PAH alleles. Sequence analysis of DNA from a single individual, homozygous for the MspI-associated haplotype, showed homozygosity for a C-to-T transition at nucleotide 896 in exon 7, resulting in the conversion of leucine-255 to serine (L255S).

Description

This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 255 of the PAH protein (p.Leu255Ser). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hyperphenylalaninemia (PMID: 2014802, 29317692). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 600). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt PAH protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects PAH function (PMID: 21953985). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
