EZH2 c.1972A>G, p.Arg658Gly
NM_004456.4:c.1972A>G
Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS)
The EZH2 p.R658G variant is absent from population databases (PM2) and predicted deleterious by multiple computational tools (PP3), but lacks functional, segregation, phenotypic, and case-control data; current evidence is insufficient for pathogenic or benign classification, thus remains a VUS.

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'. The evidence for this variant shows: this is a missense variant, not a null variant. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
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 codon R658. 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 de novo data available. 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 studies have been performed. 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 data available. 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: no specific mutational hotspot or domain evidence without benign variation. 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: the variant is absent from population databases including gnomAD. Therefore, this criterion is applied at Moderate strength because the variant 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 for recessive disorders'. The evidence for this variant shows: no trans data 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: this is not an in-frame indel or stop-loss. 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 change reported at R658. 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 available. 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 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 a low rate of benign missense variation and where missense variants are a common mechanism of disease'. The evidence for this variant shows: insufficient data on missense constraint and disease mechanism. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP3
PP3 (Supporting)
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PP3 is: 'Multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect on the gene or gene product (e.g., conservation, splicing impact)'. The evidence for this variant shows: multiple in silico tools (REVEL 0.85, PolyPhen-2, MetaSVM, MetaLR, PrimateAI) predict deleterious effect. Therefore, this criterion is applied at Supporting strength because computational evidence supports a deleterious effect.
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 history 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, but without accessible evidence'. The evidence for this variant shows: not present in ClinVar or other reputable sources. 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: disease mechanism for EZH2 not established as only LoF. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP2
BP2 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
