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 (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: NM_002168.2:c.430G>C results in a missense change (G144R), not a null effect. Therefore, this criterion is not applied because the variant is not a predicted loss-of-function.
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: no previously established pathogenic variant at glycine 144. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PS2
PS2 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
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 data on de novo occurrence. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
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: no functional characterization is available. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
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 cohort data. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
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: glycine 144 is not a known hotspot or critical functional domain in IDH2. 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: G144R is absent from population databases including gnomAD (MAF=0%). Therefore, this criterion is applied at Moderate strength because the variant is not observed in large control cohorts.
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: IDH2-related diseases are dominant/gain-of-function and no trans data are available. 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 or stop-loss variants'. The evidence for this variant shows: G144R is a missense substitution, not an in-frame indel. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
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: no other pathogenic missense variants reported at codon 144. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
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 data. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
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.
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: IDH2 has gain-of-function missense hotspots and variable benign missense variation; data are insufficient to apply. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
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 predictions are mixed (high REVEL 0.71 but low CADD 4.03 and SpliceAI 0.01). Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
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 family data. 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, but without accessible evidence'. The evidence for this variant shows: ClinVar has no entry. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BA1
BA1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BA1 is: 'Allele frequency is too high for the disorder (based on population data)'. The evidence for this variant shows: MAF=0%, below any threshold. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
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: absent from controls, not greater than expected. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BS2
BS2 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BS2 is: 'Observed in a healthy adult individual with full penetrance expected at an early age'. The evidence for this variant shows: no observations in healthy individuals. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
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 studies available. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BS4
BS4 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BS4 is: 'Lack of segregation in affected family members'. The evidence for this variant shows: no segregation data. 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 where only LoF causes disease'. The evidence for this variant shows: IDH2 disease mechanism is gain-of-function, not LoF. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP2
BP2 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
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'. The evidence for this variant shows: no phase data with other variants. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP3
BP3 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
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: G144R is a missense change, not an in-frame indel. 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'. The evidence for this variant shows: SpliceAI predicts no splicing impact (max score 0.01), CADD score is low (4.03), and overall in silico predictions are mixed leaning benign. Therefore, this criterion is applied at Supporting strength because computational data do not support a deleterious effect.
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'. The evidence for this variant shows: no case report with alternate etiology. 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, but without accessible evidence'. The evidence for this variant shows: no such reports. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP7
BP7 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP7 is: 'Synonymous variant with no predicted impact on splicing'. The evidence for this variant shows: it is missense, not synonymous. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
