Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
The GATA2 c.856G>C (p.Ala286Pro) variant has been reported in ClinVar as a variant of uncertain significance with three clinical laboratory submissions.
2
This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and is present only once in gnomAD v4.1 (AF 6.19681e-07; 1/1613734 alleles), which supports rarity in population databases.
3
Computational evidence does not strongly support either a damaging or benign effect: SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact (max delta score 0.00), REVEL is 0.352, and BayesDel is -0.0703764.
Final determination: Generic ACMG/AMP 2015 fallback rules do not meet benign, likely benign, likely pathogenic, or pathogenic combination thresholds, so the variant is classified as Variant of Uncertain Significance.
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 N/A GATA2 loss of function is an established disease mechanism, but this variant is a missense substitution rather than a nonsense, frameshift, or canonical ±1/2 splice variant, so the generic PVS1 framework does not apply.
pvs1_gene_context pvs1_variant_assessment
PS1 Not assessed No alternate nucleotide change producing the same p.Ala286Pro amino acid substitution was identified from the available evidence, so PS1 was not applied.
PS2 Not assessed No confirmed de novo occurrence with parental relationship confirmation was identified for this variant, so PS2 was not applied.
PS3 Not assessed No well-established functional study showing a damaging effect for p.Ala286Pro was identified in the available evidence, so PS3 was not applied.
oncokb
PS4 Not assessed The available evidence does not provide a case-control enrichment analysis or sufficient independent affected-case count for this variant, so PS4 was not applied.
clinvar
PM1 Not met Available hotspot review did not identify codon 286 as a statistically significant hotspot, so there is insufficient evidence that this variant lies in a well-established critical region without benign variation.
hotspots
PM2 Met This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and present only once in gnomAD v4.1 (AF 6.19681e-07; 1/1613734 alleles; highest subpopulation AF 8.47469e-07), which is far below the 0.1% rarity threshold and supports rarity in population databases.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4
PM3 N/A PM3 is intended for recessive disorders with pathogenic variants observed in trans, and the available evidence does not support use of a recessive framework for this GATA2 assessment.
pvs1_gene_context
PM4 N/A This variant is a missense substitution and does not cause a protein length change or in-frame insertion/deletion, so PM4 does not apply.
PM5 N/A The available PM5 review could not safely confirm that classic same-residue PM5 logic should be used for this case, and no validated same-residue pathogenic comparator was established, so PM5 was not applied.
pm5_candidates
PM6 Not assessed No assumed de novo occurrence without full parental confirmation was identified for this variant, so PM6 was not applied.
PP1 Not assessed No segregation data were identified for this variant, so PP1 was not applied.
PP2 Not assessed Available evidence does not establish a gene-level missense-specific constraint or a validated missense-prone mechanism at this residue sufficient to apply PP2.
PP3 Not met Computational evidence is not strong enough to support a damaging prediction. SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact (max delta score 0.00), REVEL is 0.352, and BayesDel is -0.0703764, so the available in silico results do not meet a strong deleterious threshold for PP3.
spliceai revel bayesdel
PP4 Not assessed No patient phenotype, laboratory phenotype, or disease-specific clinical presentation data were provided for this variant, so PP4 was not applied.
PP5 Not assessed Although this variant is present in ClinVar, the available record does not provide an independent reputable-source assertion that can be used here for PP5.
clinvar
BA1 Not met The observed population frequency is far below the 1% benign stand-alone threshold. In gnomAD v4.1 the total AF is 6.19681e-07, so BA1 is not met.
gnomad_v4
BS1 Not met The observed population frequency is far below the 0.3% threshold typically used for BS1. In gnomAD v4.1 the total AF is 6.19681e-07, so BS1 is not met.
gnomad_v4
BS2 Not assessed No evidence was identified showing this variant in well-phenotyped healthy adult individuals at a level sufficient for BS2.
gnomad_v4
BS3 Not assessed No well-established functional study showing normal protein function for p.Ala286Pro was identified, so BS3 was not applied.
oncokb
BS4 Not assessed No non-segregation data were identified for this variant, so BS4 was not applied.
BP1 Not assessed Available evidence is insufficient to conclude that missense variation in GATA2 is consistently less likely to be disease-causing than truncating variation, so BP1 was not applied.
pvs1_gene_context
BP2 Not assessed No phase data or second-variant data were identified for this case, so BP2 was not applied.
BP3 N/A This variant is not an in-frame insertion/deletion in a repetitive region, so BP3 does not apply.
BP4 Not met Computational evidence does not provide sufficiently strong benign support. SpliceAI predicts no significant splice effect, but REVEL at 0.352 and BayesDel at -0.0703764 do not establish a clearly benign missense profile, so BP4 was not applied.
spliceai revel bayesdel
BP5 Not assessed No alternate molecular diagnosis or independent cause for the phenotype was provided, so BP5 was not applied.
BP6 Not assessed The available evidence does not provide an independent reputable-source benign classification that can be used here for BP6.
clinvar
BP7 N/A This is a missense variant rather than a synonymous or intronic variant without predicted splice impact, so BP7 does not apply.
