VCEP Guidelines
Applied ACMG/AMP Criteria (VCEP Specific)
PVS1
PVS1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PVS1 is: 'Null variant in a gene where loss of function is a known mechanism of disease.' The evidence for this variant shows: it is a synonymous change (c.2931C>T; F977=) and not a null variant. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength because the variant does not introduce a null effect.
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: there is no known pathogenic variant resulting in F977= or equivalent. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength because no matching pathogenic amino acid change exists.
PS2
PS2 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PS2 is: 'De novo (both maternity and paternity confirmed).' The evidence for this variant shows: no de novo status has been confirmed. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength because de novo occurrence is not documented.
PS3
PS3 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PS3 is: 'Well-established functional studies supportive of a damaging effect on the gene or gene product.' The evidence for this variant shows: there are no functional studies available. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength because functional impact has not been assessed.
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.' The evidence for this variant shows: no case–control or prevalence data. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength because there is no statistical enrichment data.
PM1
PM1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PM1 is: 'Located in a mutational hot spot or well-established functional domain without benign variation.' The evidence for this variant shows: it is a synonymous change outside any described hotspot or functional domain. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength because it does not reside in a recognized hotspot or domain.
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 for this variant shows: it is extremely rare (MAF = 0.00165% in gnomAD). Therefore, this criterion is applied at Moderate strength because it meets the rarity threshold.
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).' The evidence for this variant shows: no trans observation with a known pathogenic variant. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength because no trans data exist.
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.' The evidence for this variant shows: it is synonymous with no protein length change. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength because there is no length-altering event.
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 evidence for this variant shows: it is synonymous, not missense. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength because it does not alter the amino acid sequence.
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.' The evidence for this variant shows: no de novo assumptions. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength because there is no parental confirmation data.
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.' The evidence for this variant shows: no segregation data. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength because family studies are lacking.
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.' The evidence for this variant shows: it is synonymous. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength because it is not a missense change.
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.' The evidence for this variant shows: computational tools (CADD = 0.43, SpliceAI = 0) predict no deleterious effect. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength because in silico evidence is benign.
PP4
PP4 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PP4 is: 'Patient's phenotype or family history highly specific for a disease with a single genetic etiology.' The evidence for this variant shows: no phenotype or clinical data provided. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength because phenotype specificity cannot be assessed.
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.' The evidence for this variant shows: no such report exists. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength because no pathogenic assertions are found.
BA1
BA1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BA1 is: 'Allele frequency is too high for the disorder.' The evidence for this variant shows: MAF = 0.00165%, well below the BA1 threshold. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength because the allele frequency is not excessive.
BS1
BS1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BS1 is: 'Allele frequency is greater than expected for the disorder.' The evidence for this variant shows: its low frequency is within expected range. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength because frequency does not exceed disease expectation.
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.' The evidence for this variant shows: no healthy adult observation data. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength because such evidence is missing.
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.' The evidence for this variant shows: no functional assays performed. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength because no functional data exist.
BS4
BS4 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
