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 (nonsense, frameshift, canonical ±1 or 2 splice sites, initiation codon, single exon or multi-exon deletion) in a gene where loss of function is a known mechanism of disease.' The evidence for this variant shows: it is a synonymous change (p.Ser1343=) that does not introduce a premature stop codon or disrupt canonical splice sites. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength because the variant is not a null variant.
PS1
PS1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PS1 is: 'Same amino acid change as a previously established pathogenic variant regardless of nucleotide change.' The evidence for this variant shows: it is synonymous and does not change the amino acid. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength because there is no amino acid change matching a known pathogenic variant.
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 are available. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength due to lack of de novo confirmation.
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 has been performed. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength because functional data are missing.
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 affected individual data. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength due to absence of case prevalence data.
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: location in CUX1 has no known mutational hot spot or critical domain. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength because no such domain evidence exists.
PM2
PM2 (Moderate)
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PM2 is: 'Absent from controls (or at extremely low frequency if recessive) in population databases.' The evidence for this variant shows: MAF=0.013% in gnomAD (18/138,438 alleles, no homozygotes). Therefore, this criterion is applied at Moderate strength because the variant is extremely rare.
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 information on trans configuration. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength due to missing trans data.
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: it is synonymous with no protein length change. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength.
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: it is not a missense change. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength.
PM6
PM6 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PM6 is: 'Assumed de novo, without confirmation of paternity and maternity.' The evidence for this variant shows: no information on de novo status. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength.
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 at Not Applied strength due to lack of family data.
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 where missense variants are a common mechanism of disease.' The evidence for this variant shows: it is synonymous, not missense. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength.
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.' The evidence for this variant shows: in silico predictors (CADD=1.13, SpliceAI=0) indicate no impact. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength because computational evidence does not support 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 data provided. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength.
PP5
PP5 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PP5 is: 'Reputable source reports variant as pathogenic without accessible evidence.' The evidence for this variant shows: no such report exists. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength.
BA1
BA1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BA1 is: 'Allele frequency is too high for disorder (stand-alone benign evidence).' The evidence for this variant shows: MAF=0.013%, which is well below BA1 threshold. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength.
BS1
BS1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BS1 is: 'Allele frequency is greater than expected for disorder.' The evidence for this variant shows: MAF=0.013% is not greater than expected. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength.
BS2
BS2 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BS2 is: 'Observed in healthy adult individuals for dominant/X-linked/mitochondrial disorders with full penetrance expected at an early age.' The evidence for this variant shows: no healthy control observations with phenotype data. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength.
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 performed. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength.
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 analysis. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength.
BP1
BP1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP1 is: 'Missense variant in a gene where only loss-of-function causes disease.' The evidence for this variant shows: it is synonymous, not missense. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength.
BP2
BP2 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP2 is: 'Observed in trans with a pathogenic variant for a dominant disorder or in cis with a pathogenic variant.' The evidence for this variant shows: no phase data available. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength.

BP4
BP4 (Supporting)
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP4 is: 'Multiple lines of computational evidence suggest no impact on gene or gene product.' The evidence for this variant shows: CADD=1.13 and SpliceAI=0 predict no impact on protein function or splicing. Therefore, this criterion is applied at Supporting strength because computational tools consistently indicate benign 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 alternate molecular basis reported. Therefore, this criterion is not applied at Not Applied strength.
BP6
BP6 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
