Functional Summary
The PTEN Y177Ffs*6 variant is a truncating mutation that results in the loss of PTEN phosphatase function, leading to an inability to negatively regulate PI3K/AKT pathway activity. Functional studies have demonstrated that such truncating mutations in PTEN are oncogenic, increasing genome fragility due to the failure of PTEN to associate with chromosomal centromeres. This evidence supports a damaging effect of the variant.

VCEP Guidelines
Applied ACMG/AMP Criteria (VCEP Specific) VCEP Guidelines
PVS1
PVS1 (Very Strong)
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PVS1 at Very Strong strength is: "Use PTEN PVS1 decision tree". The evidence for this variant shows: NM_000314.8:c.530del is a frameshift resulting in a premature stop codon, representing a null variant in PTEN, where loss of function is a known mechanism of disease. Therefore, this criterion is applied at Very Strong strength because it meets the VCEP-defined truncating variant rule.
PS1
PS1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PS1 at Strong strength is: "Same amino acid change as a previously established pathogenic variant regardless of nucleotide change...". The evidence for this variant shows: NM_000314.8:c.530del is a frameshift variant, not a missense change matching a known pathogenic amino acid change. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PS2
PS2 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PS2 at Very Strong strength is: "Two proven OR four assumed OR one proven + two assumed de novo observations..." and at Strong strength: "De novo (both maternity and paternity confirmed) observation...". The evidence for this variant shows: No de novo occurrence data are provided. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PS3
PS3 (Strong)
According to PTEN Pre-processing, the finding for PS3 at Strong strength 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: Functional studies demonstrate that Y177Ffs*6 abolishes PTEN phosphatase activity and leads to oncogenic effects. Therefore, this criterion is applied at Strong strength because the variant has well-established damaging functional evidence.
PS4
PS4 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PS4 at Strong strength is: "Probands with specificity score 4-15.5 or increased prevalence in cases vs controls". The evidence for this variant shows: No case-control or specificity score data are available. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM1
PM1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM1 at Moderate strength is: "Located in a mutational hot spot and/or critical and well-established functional domain (residues 90-94, 123-130, 166-168)". The evidence for this variant shows: Position 177 is outside the specified hotspot domains. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM2
PM2 (Supporting) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM2 at Supporting strength is: "Absent in population Databases present at <0.00001 (0.001%) allele frequency in gnomAD or another large sequenced population.". The evidence for this variant shows: It is not found in gnomAD (MAF=0). Therefore, this criterion is applied at Supporting strength because the variant is absent from population controls.
PM3
PM3 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PM3 is: "For autosomal recessive disorders, detected in trans with a pathogenic variant.". The evidence for this variant shows: No data on phase or cis/trans occurrence with another PTEN variant. 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 in a non-repeat region or stop-loss variants.". The evidence for this variant shows: NM_000314.8:c.530del is a frameshift, not an in-frame indel or stop-loss. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM5
PM5 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM5 at Moderate strength is: "Missense change at an amino acid residue where a different missense change determined to be pathogenic has been seen.". The evidence for this variant shows: NM_000314.8:c.530del is a frameshift variant, not a missense change. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM6
PM6 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM6 at Very Strong strength is: "Two proven OR four assumed OR one proven + two assumed de novo observations without confirmation of paternity.". The evidence for this variant shows: No presumed de novo data are available. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP1
PP1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PP1 at Supporting strength is: "Co-segregation with disease in multiple affected family members, with 3-4 meioses observed.". The evidence for this variant shows: No segregation data provided. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP2
PP2 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PP2 at Supporting strength is: "Missense variant in a gene that has a low rate of benign missense variation and where missense is a common mechanism of disease.". The evidence for this variant shows: NM_000314.8:c.530del is a frameshift, not a missense variant. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP3
PP3 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PP3 at Supporting strength is: "Multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect on the gene or gene product.".
