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 or multi-exon deletion) in a gene where loss of function is a known mechanism of disease.' The evidence for this variant shows: NM_024642.5:c.136_138delinsAGA results in an in-frame delins causing a single amino acid substitution (G46R), not a null variant. Therefore, this criterion is not applied because the variant does not meet the definition of 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: no previously established pathogenic variant at amino acid position 46. Therefore, this criterion is not applied because there is no matching pathogenic amino acid change.
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 parental testing or de novo data available. Therefore, this criterion is not applied 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 studies have been performed. Therefore, this criterion is not applied due to absence of functional evidence.
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 prevalence data. Therefore, this criterion is not applied due to lack of case prevalence information.
PM1
PM1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PM1 is: 'Located in a mutational hot spot and/or critical and well-established functional domain without benign variation.' The evidence for this variant shows: no data indicating G46 lies within a known mutational hotspot or critical domain. 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) in population databases.' The evidence for this variant shows: not found in gnomAD or other population databases (MAF = 0%). 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 configuration data with any pathogenic variant. 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: net protein length is unchanged, it is a missense substitution (G46R). 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 before.' The evidence for this variant shows: no other pathogenic missense variants reported at amino acid 46. 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 or parental 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 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 where missense is a common mechanism of disease.' The evidence for this variant shows: insufficient data that GALNT12 has a low rate of benign missense variation or that missense is a known common mechanism. 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 or gene product.' The evidence for this variant shows: in silico tools (PolyPhen benign, SpliceAI 0.01) predict no damaging effect. 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 clinical data 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: no reputable source reports it as pathogenic. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BA1
BA1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified

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 family 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 loss of function causes disease.' The evidence for this variant shows: disease mechanism for GALNT12 is not established as exclusively loss of function. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
BP2
BP2 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP2 is: 'Observed in cis with a pathogenic variant for a dominant disorder or in trans for a recessive disorder.' The evidence for this variant shows: no data on phase with other variants. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
