Functional Impact & Domains
Functional Domain
The TET2 N789Tfs*13 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, supporting a damaging effect and classifying it as an oncogenic event in hematologic malignancies.

VCEP Guidelines
Applied ACMG/AMP Criteria (VCEP Specific)
PVS1 (Very Strong)
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 frameshift insertion c.2365_2366insC resulting in N789Tfs*13, a predicted truncating LoF mutation in TET2, a gene where LoF is an established disease mechanism. Therefore, this criterion is applied at Very Strong strength because the variant generates a null effect in a LoF gene.
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 a novel frameshift change not matching any known pathogenic amino acid substitution. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
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." There is no evidence of confirmed de novo occurrence provided. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PS3 (Strong)
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 that functional studies demonstrate disruption of the C-terminal catalytic domain of TET2, leading to loss of enzymatic activity required for 5-hydroxymethylcytosine generation. Therefore, this criterion is applied at Strong strength because in vitro/in vivo data support a damaging effect.
PS4 (Not Applied)
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 reported. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
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." Although TET2 has functional domains, PM1 is intended for specific non-LoF hotspot missense domains; this variant is frameshift. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
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 the variant is not observed in gnomAD or other population databases. Therefore, this criterion is applied at Moderate strength because it is absent from population controls.
PM3 (Not Applied)
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PM3 is: "Detected in trans with a pathogenic variant (for recessive disorders)." TET2‐related disease is not recessive and no trans variant data are provided. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
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." This variant is a frameshift leading to early termination, not an in-frame change. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
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." This variant is not a missense substitution. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM6 (Not Applied)
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PM6 is: "Assumed de novo, but without confirmation of paternity and maternity." No de novo data are provided. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP1 (Not Applied)
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PP1 is: "Co-segregation with disease in multiple affected family members." Family segregation data are not provided. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
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." This is a frameshift variant, not missense. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
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." Computational predictions for splicing show minimal impact and do not address truncating effect. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
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." No specific phenotype data are provided. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP5 (Not Applied)
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PP5 is: "Reputable source reports variant as pathogenic, but without accessible evidence." The variant is not reported in ClinVar or other databases. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BA1 (Not Applied)
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BA1 is: "Allele frequency is too high for the disorder." The variant is absent from population databases. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BS1 (Not Applied)
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BS1 is: "Allele frequency is greater than expected for the disorder." The variant is not observed in population databases. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
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." There is no evidence of observation in healthy individuals. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
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." Functional data demonstrate damaging effect. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BS4 (Not Applied)
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BS4 is: "Lack of segregation in affected family members." No segregation data are available. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP1 (Not Applied)
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP1 is: "Missense variant in a gene where only LoF causes disease." This variant is a LoF frameshift. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
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 a pathogenic variant." No such observations are reported. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP3 (Not Applied)
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP3 is: "In-frame deletions/insertions in a repetitive region without known function." This is a frameshift insertion, not in-frame. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP4 (Not Applied)
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP4 is: "Multiple lines of computational evidence suggest no impact." Computational evidence here is limited and irrelevant for a truncating variant. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
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." No such alternate molecular basis is reported. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP6 (Not Applied)
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP6 is: "Reputable source reports variant as benign, but without accessible evidence." No benign reports are available. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP7 (Not Applied)
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.
