Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
The DNMT3A c.1475-19C>T (p.?) variant has been reported in ClinVar with a Likely benign classification from a single clinical laboratory.
2
This variant is present at very low overall frequency in population databases, with gnomAD v2.1 AF 0.00081% (2/247888 alleles) and gnomAD v4.1 AF 0.00043% (7/1611438 alleles); the highest observed frequency is 0.04936% in the Middle Eastern population in gnomAD v4.1, which is below the default BS1 threshold of 0.3% and below the BA1 threshold of 1.0%.
3
SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact for this variant, with a maximum delta score of 0.00, which supports a benign computational interpretation rather than evidence for abnormal splicing.
Final determination:
Generic ACMG/AMP 2015 fallback rules identified both pathogenic and benign evidence, so the overall classification remains Variant of Uncertain Significance because the evidence is conflicting.
Criteria assessment
ACMG/AMP criteria review
Criteria shown when status is available
All criteria require review: For research and educational purposes only.
| Criterion | Status | Rationale | Evidence used |
|---|---|---|---|
| PVS1 | Not met | Although germline loss of function is an established DNMT3A disease mechanism, this intronic variant is c.1475-19C>T, outside the canonical +/-1,2 splice consensus, and the generic PVS1 assessment does not place it in a default null-variant bucket. Available evidence does not support applying PVS1 at this stage. |

|
| PS1 | N/A | PS1 applies to variants that produce the same amino acid change as a known pathogenic variant. This intronic variant has no established amino acid substitution, so PS1 is not applicable. |
|
| PS2 | Not assessed | No confirmed de novo occurrence with verified maternity and paternity was identified for this variant. |
|
| PS3 | Not assessed | No well-established functional or RNA study showing a damaging effect for this variant was identified. |
|
| PS4 | Not assessed | No case-control enrichment data or multiple independent affected-case observations were identified for this variant. |

|
| PM1 | Not assessed | No evidence was identified that this intronic position lies in a mutational hot spot or other well-established critical functional region without benign variation. |
|
| PM2 | Met | This variant is present at very low frequency in population databases, with gnomAD v2.1 AF 0.00081% (2/247888 alleles) and gnomAD v4.1 AF 0.00043% (7/1611438 alleles). The highest observed population frequency is 0.04936% in gnomAD v4.1 Middle Eastern samples, which remains below the default PM2 threshold of 0.1%. |

|
| PM3 | N/A | PM3 applies to recessive disorders with a variant observed in trans with a pathogenic variant. That evidence was not identified, and this criterion is not applicable here. |
|
| PM4 | N/A | PM4 applies to protein length changes such as in-frame insertions or deletions and stop-loss variants. This intronic variant does not meet that criterion type. |
|
| PM5 | N/A | PM5 applies to a novel missense change at an amino acid residue where a different pathogenic missense change is established. This intronic variant is not a missense variant, so PM5 is not applicable. |
|
| PM6 | Not assessed | No assumed or incompletely confirmed de novo observation was identified for this variant. |
|
| PP1 | Not assessed | No segregation data were identified for this variant. |
|
| PP2 | N/A | PP2 is a missense-specific criterion and is not applicable to this intronic variant. |
|
| PP3 | Not met | Available computational evidence does not support a damaging splicing effect. SpliceAI shows a maximum delta score of 0.00, and no REVEL or BayesDel score was available or relevant for this intronic noncoding change. |

|
| PP4 | Not assessed | No phenotype information was identified that would allow assessment of a highly specific DNMT3A-related clinical presentation for this variant. |
|
| PP5 | N/A | A pathogenic assertion from another source without accessible primary evidence was not used for this criterion. PP5 was not applied. |
|
| BA1 | Not met | Population frequency does not reach the benign stand-alone threshold. The highest observed frequency is 0.04936% in gnomAD v4.1 Middle Eastern samples, which is below the default BA1 threshold of 1.0%. |
gnomad_v4
|
| BS1 | Not met | Population frequency does not exceed the benign strong threshold. The highest observed frequency is 0.04936% in gnomAD v4.1 Middle Eastern samples, which is below the default BS1 threshold of 0.3%. |
gnomad_v4
|
| BS2 | Not assessed | The available population data do not establish observation in clearly unaffected individuals at a level sufficient for BS2. |

|
| BS3 | Not assessed | No well-established functional or RNA study showing normal splicing or normal function for this variant was identified. |
|
| BS4 | Not assessed | No non-segregation data were identified for this variant. |
|
| BP1 | N/A | BP1 is a missense-specific criterion and is not applicable to this intronic variant. |
|
| BP2 | Not assessed | No data were identified showing this variant in trans with a pathogenic variant for a dominant disorder or in cis with a pathogenic variant in a way that supports BP2. |
|
| BP3 | N/A | BP3 applies to in-frame variants in repetitive regions without known function and is not applicable to this intronic single-nucleotide variant. |
|
| BP4 | Not assessed | Benign computational evidence for this intronic variant is captured under BP7 rather than counted separately here. |
spliceai
|
| BP5 | Not assessed | No evidence was identified for an alternate molecular cause that would explain a reported phenotype independently of this variant. |
|
| BP6 | N/A | A benign assertion from another source without accessible primary evidence was not used as stand-alone evidence for this criterion. BP6 was not applied. |
|
| BP7 | Met | This intronic variant is outside the canonical splice consensus at c.1475-19, and SpliceAI predicts no significant splice effect with a maximum delta score of 0.00. This supports BP7 for a noncoding intronic change without computational evidence for abnormal splicing. |
