Functional Studies & Therapeutic Relevance
Functional Summary
The RUNX1 R201Efs*10 variant is a truncating mutation in a tumor suppressor gene, likely resulting in loss of function. Functional evidence indicates that such truncating mutations in RUNX1 inhibit its function, predisposing to hematologic malignancies such as leukemia, lymphomas, and myelodysplastic syndromes.

VCEP Guidelines

Applied ACMG/AMP Criteria (VCEP Specific) VCEP Guidelines
PVS1
PVS1 (Very Strong)
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PVS1 is: "Very Strong Strength: Very Strong Per modified RUNX1 PVS1 decision tree for SNVs and CNVs and table of splicing effects." The evidence for this variant shows: NM_001754.4:c.597del (R201Efs*10) is a frameshift leading to a premature stop codon in RUNX1, a gene where loss of function is a known mechanism of disease. Therefore, this criterion is applied at Very Strong strength because it is a null variant in a LOF‐sensitive gene.
PS1
PS1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PS1 is: "Strong Strength: Same amino acid change as a previously established pathogenic variant regardless of nucleotide change." The evidence for this variant shows: R201Efs*10 is a frameshift, not the same amino acid substitution as any known pathogenic variant. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PS2
PS2 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PS2 (Moderate/Supporting) is based on de novo occurrence with parental confirmation. The evidence for this variant shows: no de novo data are available. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PS3
PS3 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PS3 is: "Not applicable if variant meets PVS1." The evidence for this variant shows: PVS1 has been applied. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PS4
PS4 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PS4 (Supporting) is: "1 proband meeting RUNX1 phenotypic criteria." The evidence for this variant shows: no case-level or proband data reported. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM1
PM1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM1 (Moderate) is: "Variant affecting one of the following amino acid residues within the RHD: ... R201 ..." The evidence for this variant shows: it is a frameshift, not a missense or in-frame indel at position R201. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM2
PM2 (Supporting) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM2 is: "Supporting Strength: Variant must be completely absent from all population databases." The evidence for this variant shows: NM_001754.4:c.597del is absent from gnomAD and other control databases. Therefore, this criterion is applied at Supporting strength.
PM3
PM3 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PM3 is: "For recessive disorders, detected in trans with a pathogenic variant." The evidence for this variant shows: RUNX1 disorders are dominant and no trans configuration data exist. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM4
PM4 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM4 (Moderate) is: "In-frame deletion/insertion impacting key residues." The evidence for this variant shows: it is a frameshift, not an in-frame indel. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM5
PM5 (Supporting) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM5_supporting is: "PM5_supporting is also applied to nonsense/frameshift variants that are downstream of c.98 (in transcript NM_001754.4)." The evidence for this variant shows: c.597del is a frameshift downstream of c.98. Therefore, this criterion is applied at Supporting strength.
PM6
PM6 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM6 (Moderate) is: "Phenotype consistent with gene but not highly specific; de novo assumed cases." The evidence for this variant shows: no de novo cases reported. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP1
PP1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PP1 (Supporting) is: "3 or 4 meioses observed with co-segregation." The evidence for this variant shows: no segregation data available. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP2
PP2 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PP2 is: "Missense variant in a gene with low rate of benign missense variation." The evidence for this variant shows: it is a frameshift, not a missense. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP3
PP3 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PP3 is: "Supporting for missense variants with REVEL ≥0.88 or SpliceAI ≥0.38." The evidence for this variant shows: it is a frameshift and SpliceAI score is 0. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP4
PP4 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PP4 is: "Patient phenotype is highly specific for a gene." The evidence for this variant shows: no phenotype or family history details provided. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP5
PP5 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PP5 is: "Reputable source reports variant as pathogenic." The evidence for this variant shows: no such reports. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BA1
BA1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified

BS1
BS1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for BS1 is: "Minor allele frequency between 0.015% and 0.15%." The evidence for this variant shows: allele frequency is 0%. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
