Description

Variant summary: The PAH c.1278T>C (p.Asn426Asn) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide causing a synonymous change and 5/5 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. ESE finder predicts that this variant may alter ESE binding. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. This variant was found in 1666/121610 control chromosomes (104 homozygotes), predominantly in the African cohort at a frequency of 0.14655 (1525/10406). This frequency is about 19 times the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic PAH variant (0.0079057), suggesting this is likely a benign polymorphism found primarily in population(s) of African origin. A publication, Acosta_2001, classifies the variant as a polymorphism, along with multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories classify the variant as "likely benign/benign." Taken together, this variant is classified as benign.
