Description
This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 396 of the PAH protein (p.Lys396Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs776178623, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with phenylketonuria (PMID: 21147011, 23357515). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 962987). 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 not expected to disrupt PAH protein function. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
