Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
NM_000314.8:c.348del predicts PTEN p.(Asp116GlufsTer18), a frameshift expected to truncate the protein early in exon 5.
2
The PTEN PVS1 decision tree assigns PVS1 to frameshift variants in NM_000314.8 when the stop/disruption occurs at or 5' to p.D375 (c.1121); this variant truncates at p.Asp116fs, which is well upstream of that threshold and is consistent with loss of function.
3
The variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD v4.1, and the PTEN specification applies PM2 at Supporting strength for variants with allele frequency below 0.00001, with a subpopulation threshold below 0.00002 when multiple alleles are present.
4
No PTEN-specific final classification framework was retrieved, so the generic ACMG/AMP combination rules were used as fallback; with PVS1 and PM2_Supporting alone, this evidence set does not reach a defined pathogenic or likely pathogenic combination under those rules, and the variant is therefore classified as a variant of uncertain significance pending human review.

Criteria shown when status is available
All criteria require review: For research and educational purposes only.
| Criterion | Status | Rationale | Evidence used |
|---|---|---|---|
| PVS1 | Met | NM_000314.8:c.348del is a frameshift variant predicted to cause p.(Asp116GlufsTer18). The PTEN-specific PVS1 decision tree assigns PVS1 to frameshift variants in biologically relevant transcript NM_000314.8 when the stop/disruption is at or 5' to p.D375 (c.1121); p.Asp116fs is well upstream of this threshold and is predicted to undergo NMD. |

cspec
|
| PS1 | N/A | PS1 is specified for the same amino acid substitution as a known pathogenic variant or equivalent splicing effect. This variant is a frameshift, not a single amino acid substitution. |
cspec
|
| PS2 | Not assessed | No de novo case data with confirmed maternity and paternity were provided. |
cspec
|
| PS3 | N/A | No RNA or splicing assay evidence was provided for this deletion, and the PTEN functional dataset indexed for PS3/BS3 is a missense phosphatase assay that does not apply to this frameshift variant. |
cspec
vcep_m_m_c_2
|
| PS4 | Not assessed | No germline proband counts or PTEN phenotype specificity scoring data were provided to compare case prevalence with controls under the PTEN specification. |
cspec
|
| PM1 | Not met | The PTEN PM1 specification is limited to catalytic motif residues 90-94, 123-130, and 166-168. This variant affects codon 116, which is outside those defined PM1 residues, and no statistically significant hotspot evidence was provided. |
cspec
|
| PM2 | Met | The variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD v4.1. Under the PTEN specification, PM2 is applied at Supporting strength when allele frequency is <0.00001 (0.001%) and, if multiple alleles are present in a subpopulation, the subpopulation frequency is <0.00002 (0.002%); absence from both datasets satisfies this rule. |

| PM3 | N/A | PM3 is not applicable for the PTEN VCEP. |
cspec
|
| PM4 | N/A | PM4 is specified for in-frame insertions/deletions affecting defined motifs or for stop-loss variants. This variant is a frameshift loss-of-function variant, so PM4 does not apply. |
cspec
|
| PM5 | N/A | PM5 is a missense criterion and does not apply to this frameshift variant. |
cspec
|
| PM6 | Not assessed | No assumed de novo observations in affected individuals without family history were provided. |
cspec
|
| PP1 | Not assessed | No segregation data were provided to count informative meioses. |
cspec
|
| PP2 | N/A | PP2 is a missense criterion and does not apply to this frameshift variant. |
cspec
|
| PP3 | N/A | PTEN PP3 is specified for missense variants using REVEL or for splicing variants with concordant splice predictors. This exonic frameshift deletion is not a missense variant, is not a splice-region variant, and no concordant splicing framework beyond SpliceAI was provided. |
cspec
spliceai
|
| PP4 | N/A | PP4 is not applicable for the PTEN VCEP because phenotype specificity has been incorporated into PS4. |
cspec
|
| BA1 | Not met | The variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and v4.1, so it does not exceed the PTEN BA1 filtering allele frequency threshold of >0.00056 (0.056%). |
cspec
gnomad_v2
gnomad_v4
|
| BS1 | Not met | The variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and v4.1, so it does not fall within the PTEN BS1 frequency ranges of 0.000043-0.00056 for Strong or 0.0000043-0.000043 for Supporting evidence. |

| BS2 | Not met | No observation of this variant in the homozygous state in a healthy or PTEN-hamartoma-tumor-syndrome-unaffected individual was provided. |
cspec
|
| BS3 | N/A | No functional study showing no damaging effect was provided for this frameshift variant, and the indexed PTEN functional assay file is a missense phosphatase dataset that does not apply here. |

| BP3 | N/A | BP3 is not applicable for the PTEN VCEP. |
cspec
|
| BP4 | N/A | PTEN BP4 is specified for synonymous or intronic variants with benign splicing predictions, or missense variants with REVEL <0.5. This variant is an exonic frameshift deletion, so BP4 does not apply. |
cspec

| BP5 | Not assessed | No evidence was provided for at least two cases with an alternate highly penetrant molecular diagnosis and a nonoverlapping phenotype. |
cspec

| BP6 | N/A | BP6 is not for use in this VCEP. |
cspec
|
| BP7 | N/A | BP7 is limited to synonymous or deep intronic variants without predicted splice impact and does not apply to this frameshift deletion. |
