Functional Summary
The TET2 M1333Wfs*30 variant is a truncating mutation that disrupts the C-terminal catalytic domain of the TET2 protein, leading to loss of enzymatic function necessary for generating 5-hydroxymethylcytosine. This disruption is predicted to cause gene inactivation and is considered an oncogenic event, particularly in the context of hematologic malignancies.

VCEP Guidelines
Applied ACMG/AMP Criteria (VCEP Specific)
PVS1
PVS1 (Very Strong)
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PVS1 is: 'Null variant (nonsense, frameshift, canonical ±1 or 2 splice sites, initiation codon, single exon or multi-exon deletion) in a gene where loss of function is a known mechanism of disease.' The evidence for this variant shows a frameshift deletion leading to a premature stop (M1333Wfs*30) in TET2, a gene in which loss of function is a known disease mechanism. Therefore, this criterion is applied at Very Strong strength because the frameshift predicts loss of function.
PS1
PS1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PS1 is: 'Same amino acid change as a known pathogenic variant but different nucleotide change.' The evidence for this variant shows no known pathogenic variant causing the same amino acid change. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PS2
PS2 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PS2 is: 'De novo (both maternity and paternity confirmed) in a patient with the disease and no family history.' There is no data on de novo status for this variant. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PS3
PS3 (Strong)
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PS3 is: 'Well-established in vitro or in vivo functional studies supportive of a damaging effect on the gene or gene product.' The evidence for this variant shows that functional studies of the TET2 M1333Wfs*30 truncating mutation disrupt the C-terminal catalytic domain and result in loss of enzymatic activity. Therefore, this criterion is applied at Strong strength because the functional data support a damaging effect.
PS4
PS4 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PS4 is: 'Prevalence in affected individuals significantly increased compared with controls.' There are no case-control or prevalence data for this variant. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM1
PM1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PM1 is: 'Located in a mutational hot spot or a well-established functional domain without benign variation.' While this variant truncates the catalytic domain, PM1 applies primarily to missense changes in hotspots. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM2
PM2 (Moderate)
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PM2 is: 'Absent from controls (or at extremely low frequency if recessive).' The evidence shows this variant is absent from population databases including gnomAD. Therefore, this criterion is applied at Moderate strength because it is absent from controls.
PM3
PM3 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PM3 is: 'Detected in trans with a pathogenic variant for recessive disorders.' TET2-related disease is autosomal dominant with haploinsufficiency; there is no evidence of trans occurrence. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM4
PM4 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PM4 is: 'Protein length changes due to in-frame deletions/insertions or stop-loss variants.' This is a frameshift with truncation, not an in-frame change. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM5
PM5 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PM5 is: 'Novel missense change at an amino acid residue where a different pathogenic missense change has been seen.' The variant is a frameshift, not a missense change. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM6
PM6 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PM6 is: 'Assumed de novo, but without confirmation of paternity and maternity.' There is no de novo data. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP1
PP1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PP1 is: 'Co-segregation with disease in multiple affected family members in a gene definitively known to cause the disease.' No segregation data are 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 a low rate of benign missense variation and where missense variants are a common mechanism of disease.' This is a frameshift variant, not missense. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP3
PP3 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PP3 is: 'Multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect on the gene/gene product.' Computational predictions including SpliceAI show no significant impact, and in silico predictions do not support pathogenicity. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP4
PP4 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PP4 is: 'Patient’s phenotype or family history is highly specific for a disease with a single genetic etiology.' No specific phenotype data are 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 but without accessible evidence.' This variant is not reported in ClinVar or other reputable sources. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BA1
BA1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BA1 is: 'Allele frequency is greater than expected for the disorder.' The allele frequency is 0%, not exceeding thresholds. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BS1
BS1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BS1 is: 'Allele frequency greater than expected for the disorder.' This variant is absent in controls. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BS2
BS2 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BS2 is: 'Observed in healthy individuals with full penetrance expected at an early age.' No such observations exist. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BS3
BS3 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BS3 is: 'Well-established functional studies show no damaging effect on protein function or splicing.' Functional studies show damaging effect. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BS4
BS4 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BS4 is: 'Lack of segregation in affected members of a family.' No segregation data. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP1
BP1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP1 is: 'Missense variant in a gene where only loss-of-function causes disease.' This is a loss-of-function variant, not missense. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP2
BP2 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP2 is: 'Observed in trans with a pathogenic variant for dominant disorders or in cis with a pathogenic variant.' No such data. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP3
BP3 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP3 is: 'In-frame deletions/insertions in a repetitive region without known function.' This variant is a frameshift, not in-frame. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP4
BP4 (Supporting)
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP4 is: 'Multiple lines of computational evidence suggest no impact on gene or gene product.' Computational predictions including SpliceAI show no significant splicing impact, and in silico tools do not predict damaging effect. Therefore, this criterion is applied at Supporting strength.
BP5
BP5 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP5 is: 'Variant found in a case with an alternate molecular basis for disease.' No evidence. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP6
BP6 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP6 is: 'Reputable source reports variant as benign but without accessible evidence.' Not reported as benign. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP7
BP7 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP7 is: 'Synonymous variant with no predicted impact on splicing.' This is not a synonymous variant. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
