VCEP Guidelines

Applied ACMG/AMP Criteria (VCEP Specific) VCEP Guidelines
PVS1
PVS1 (Very Strong)
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PVS1 is: "Null Variant (nonsense, fs, start codon, splicing +1/2, startgain, single or multi-exon deletion) in a gene where LOF is a known mechanism of disease". The evidence for this variant shows deletion of the +1 splice donor site (c.490_492+1del) predicted to abolish normal splicing. Therefore, this criterion is applied at Very Strong strength because it is a canonical ±1 splice site variant in PTEN, a gene with known LOF mechanism.
PS1
PS1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PS1 is: "Same amino acid change as a previously established pathogenic variant regardless of nucleotide change OR different variant at same nucleotide position as a pathogenic splicing variant, where in silico models predict impact equal to or greater than the known pathogenic variant." The evidence for this variant shows no known pathogenic variant with the same amino acid change. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PS2
PS2 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PS2 is: "De novo (both maternity and paternity confirmed) observation in a patient with the disease and no family history" at Strong strength. There are no de novo data for this variant. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PS3
PS3 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to PTEN pre-processing, the finding for PS3 is: "The variant PTEN 490_492+1del has not been functionally characterized." The evidence for this variant shows no functional studies demonstrating impact. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PS4
PS4 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PS4 is: "The prevalence of the variant in affected individuals is significantly increased compared with the prevalence in controls." There are no case–control or proband data. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM1
PM1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM1 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 it affects c.490_492+1 (codon ~164), not within those residues. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM2
PM2 (Supporting) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM2 is: "Absent in population databases present at <0.00001 allele frequency in gnomAD or another large database." The evidence for this variant shows it is not found in gnomAD (MAF = 0). Therefore, this criterion is applied at Supporting 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 in a recessive disorder." PTEN is autosomal dominant and there are no in trans data. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM4
PM4 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM4 is: "Protein length changes due to in-frame deletions/insertions in a non-repeat region." While there is an in‐frame deletion, the primary predicted effect is splice site loss, which is covered by PVS1. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM5
PM5 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM5 is: "Missense change at an amino acid residue where a different missense change determined to be pathogenic has been seen before." This variant is not a missense. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM6
PM6 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM6 is: "Assumed de novo without paternity/maternity confirmation." There are no de novo or assumption data. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP1
PP1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PP1 is: "Co-segregation with disease in multiple affected family members." 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 low rate of benign missense variation where missense is common mechanism of disease." This is not a missense variant. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP3
PP3 (Supporting)
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PP3 is: "Multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect on the gene or gene product. Splicing variants: Concordance of SpliceAI and VarSeak." The evidence for this variant shows SpliceAI predicts donor loss with a maximum score of 0.99. Therefore, this criterion is applied at Supporting strength because the in silico models concordantly predict splice disruption.
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 phenotype or clinical correlation is 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." There is no ClinVar or other expert assertion. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BA1
BA1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for BA1 is: "gnomAD Filtering allele frequency >0.00056." The variant is absent from gnomAD. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BS1
BS1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for BS1 is: "gnomAD Filtering allele frequency from 0.000043 up to 0.00056." The variant is absent. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BS2
BS2 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for BS2 is: "Observed in the homozygous state in a healthy individual." No homozygous observations are reported. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BS3
BS3 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for BS3 is: "Well-established functional studies show no damaging effect." No functional studies exist. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BS4
BS4 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for BS4 is: "Lack of segregation in affected members of two or more families." No segregation data exist. 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 for which primarily truncating variants cause disease." This is not a missense variant. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP2
BP2 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for BP2 is: "Observed in trans with a pathogenic variant in PTEN." No trans observations. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP3
BP3 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP3 is: "In-frame indel in a repetitive region without a known function." The deletion affects a splice site, not a repeat region. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP4
BP4 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for BP4 is: "Multiple lines of computational evidence suggest no impact." SpliceAI predicts high impact. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
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 alternate molecular basis is reported. 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." No such report exists. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP7
BP7 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for BP7 is: "Silent or intronic variant beyond +7/−21 with no splicing impact predicted." This is a splice donor variant at +1. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
