Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
The KLLN c.-694T>G (NP_001119521.1:p.?) variant has not been reported in ClinVar.
2
This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and is present at very low frequency in gnomAD v4.1 (2/185458 alleles; AF 0.00108%; highest observed population AF 0.00787% in Finnish), supporting rarity and meeting PM2 at supporting strength while remaining far below benign frequency thresholds.
3
SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact for this variant (max delta score 0.08), but no validated computational evidence was identified to determine whether this upstream change has a damaging or benign regulatory effect.
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.
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 | N/A | KLLN loss of function is an established disease mechanism, but this upstream c.-694T>G change is not a nonsense, frameshift, or canonical +/-1,2 splice variant, so the generic PVS1 framework does not apply. |
pvs1_gene_context
pvs1_variant_assessment
pvs1_generic_framework
|
| PS1 | N/A | This is a noncoding upstream variant with no defined amino acid substitution, so same-amino-acid-change logic does not apply. |
|
| PS2 | Not assessed | No confirmed de novo occurrence was identified for this variant. |
|
| PS3 | Not assessed | No well-established functional study was identified for this exact variant, so a damaging functional effect cannot be concluded. |
|
| PS4 | Not assessed | No case-control enrichment or affected-individual count data were identified for this variant. |
clinvar
gnomad_v4
|
| PM1 | Not assessed | Available evidence does not identify c.-694 as part of a well-established mutational hotspot or a critical functional region without benign variation. |
|
| PM2 | Met | This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and is present at very low frequency in gnomAD v4.1 (2/185458 alleles; AF 0.00108%; highest observed population AF 0.00787% in Finnish), which is below the 0.1% rarity threshold used here and supports rarity. |
gnomad_v2
gnomad_v4
|
| PM3 | N/A | No recessive disease framework or biallelic KLLN disease evidence was identified for this variant, so PM3 is not applicable. |
|
| PM4 | N/A | This variant does not change protein length and is not an in-frame insertion or deletion. |
|
| PM5 | N/A | This is not a missense variant, and same-residue missense comparator logic does not apply. |
pm5_candidates
|
| PM6 | Not assessed | No assumed de novo report was identified for this variant. |
|
| PP1 | Not assessed | No segregation data were identified for this variant. |
|
| PP2 | N/A | This criterion is intended for selected missense variants and does not apply to an upstream noncoding substitution. |
|
| PP3 | Not met | SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact for this variant (max delta score 0.08), and no REVEL, BayesDel, or other validated computational evidence was identified to support a damaging effect on this upstream regulatory change. |
spliceai
|
| PP4 | Not assessed | No phenotype or family history information was provided to assess whether the clinical presentation is highly specific for a KLLN-related disorder. |
|
| PP5 | N/A | No reputable-source pathogenic assertion was identified, and this criterion is not used here without primary supporting evidence. |
clinvar
|
| BA1 | Not met | The observed population frequency is well below the benign stand-alone threshold of 1%: gnomAD v4.1 shows AF 0.00108% overall and 0.00787% in the highest observed population. |
gnomad_v4
|
| BS1 | Not met | The population frequency is below the benign strong threshold of 0.3%: gnomAD v4.1 shows AF 0.00108% overall and 0.00787% in the highest observed population. |
gnomad_v4
|
| BS2 | Not assessed | This variant has only two alleles in gnomAD v4.1 and no homozygotes, which does not provide enough evidence that it is observed in healthy adults at a rate expected to argue against pathogenicity. |
gnomad_v4
|
| BS3 | Not assessed | No well-established functional study was identified showing normal function for this exact variant. |
|
| BS4 | Not assessed | No nonsegregation data were identified for this variant. |
|
| BP1 | N/A | This criterion applies to selected missense variants and does not apply to an upstream noncoding substitution. |
|
| BP2 | Not assessed | No co-occurrence or phase data were identified for this variant. |
|
| BP3 | N/A | This variant is not an in-frame deletion or insertion in a repetitive region. |
|
| BP4 | Not met | SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact (max delta score 0.08), but this isolated splicing result does not establish that an upstream regulatory variant is benign, so benign computational evidence is insufficient. |
spliceai
|
| BP5 | Not assessed | No alternate molecular explanation for the phenotype was provided, so this criterion cannot be assessed. |
|
| BP6 | N/A | No reputable-source benign assertion was identified, and this criterion is not used here without primary supporting evidence. |
clinvar
|
| BP7 | N/A | This variant is not a synonymous or intronic change, so BP7 does not apply. |
