VCEP Guidelines

Applied ACMG/AMP Criteria (VCEP Specific)

Filter Criteria:
PVS1

PVS1 (Not Applied)

According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PVS1 is: 'Null variant in a gene where loss of function (LoF) is a known mechanism of disease (e.g., nonsense, frameshift, canonical ±1 or 2 splice sites, initiation codon, single exon deletion in a LoF gene)'. The evidence for this variant shows: a synonymous (L1177=) change that does not introduce a stop codon or disrupt canonical splice sites. Therefore, this criterion is not applied because the variant is not predicted to cause loss of function.

PS1

PS1 (Not Applied)

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 change in amino acid (L1177=) and no known pathogenic variant at this codon. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

PS2

PS2 (Not Applied)

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'. The evidence for this variant shows: no information on de novo occurrence or parental testing is available. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength because de novo status cannot be evaluated without parental data.

PS3

PS3 (Not Applied)

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: no functional studies have been performed. Therefore, this criterion is not applied because functional data are not available.

PS4

PS4 (Not Applied)

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 affected individual data. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

PM1

PM1 (Not Applied)

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: no localization to a known hotspot or critical domain. 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 for this variant shows: MAF = 0.00683% (14/204,864 alleles) in gnomAD, which is below thresholds for common variation. Therefore, this criterion is applied at Moderate strength because the variant is extremely rare in population databases.

PM3

PM3 (Not Applied)

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 data on compound heterozygosity or trans-phase variants. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

PM4

PM4 (Not Applied)

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: a synonymous change without any length alteration. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

PM5

PM5 (Not Applied)

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: no amino acid change (synonymous). Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

PM6

PM6 (Not Applied)

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 information on de novo occurrence. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength due to lack of de novo data.

PP1

PP1 (Not Applied)

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 family segregation data. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

PP2

PP2 (Not Applied)

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: synonymous change, not missense. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

PP3

PP3 (Not Applied)

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: in silico tools and SpliceAI predict no impact on splicing or function. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

PP4

PP4 (Not Applied)

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 clinical phenotype data provided. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

PP5

PP5 (Not Applied)

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: ClinVar reports this variant as benign. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

BA1

BA1 (Not Applied)

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 is 0.00683%, well below thresholds for BA1. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

BS1

BS1 (Not Applied)

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: frequency is very low and not above expected disease prevalence. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

BS2

BS2 (Not Applied)

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 data on homozygous individuals or confirmed healthy carriers. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

BS3

BS3 (Not Applied)

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 have been conducted. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

BS4

BS4 (Not Applied)

According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BS4 is: 'Lack of segregation in affected family members'. The evidence for this variant shows: no family segregation data. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

BP1

BP1 (Not Applied)

According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP1 is: 'Missense variant in a gene where only loss-of-function causes disease'. The evidence for this variant shows: it is synonymous, not missense. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

BP2

BP2 (Not Applied)

According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP2 is: 'Observed in trans with a pathogenic variant for dominant disorders or in cis with another pathogenic variant'. The evidence for this variant shows: no data on cis/trans phase with other variants. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

BP3

BP3 (Not Applied)

According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP3 is: 'In-frame deletions/insertions in a repetitive region without known function'. The evidence for this variant shows: no indel, just a nucleotide substitution. 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'. The evidence for this variant shows: SpliceAI predicts no splicing impact (score 0.06) and other in silico tools predict no functional effect. Therefore, this criterion is applied at Supporting strength because computational data indicate no deleterious effect.

BP5

BP5 (Not Applied)

According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP5 is: 'Variant found in a case with an alternate molecular basis for disease'. The evidence for this variant shows: no case reports with an alternate molecular diagnosis. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

BP6

BP6 (Supporting)

According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP6 is: 'Reputable source reports variant as benign, but without accessible evidence'. The evidence for this variant shows: ClinVar entry from one clinical laboratory classifies it as Benign. Therefore, this criterion is applied at Supporting strength based on the reputable source.

BP7

BP7 (Supporting)

According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP7 is: 'Synonymous variant with no predicted impact on splicing'. The evidence for this variant shows: a synonymous change and SpliceAI score below significance threshold. Therefore, this criterion is applied at Supporting strength because the variant is silent and not predicted to affect splicing.
