Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
NM_003073.4:c.787A>G (p.Ile263Val) is a missense variant in exon 6 of SMARCB1.
2
The variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and present at extremely low frequency in gnomAD v4.1 (9.29e-06, 15 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes), meeting PM2 at supporting level.
3
Multiple in silico predictors suggest no significant impact: SpliceAI max delta 0.01, REVEL 0.326, BayesDel -0.137856, meeting BP4 at supporting_benign level.
4
This variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance by two clinical laboratories.
5
No functional studies, segregation data, de novo observations, or case-control data are available for this variant.
6
With one supporting pathogenic criterion (PM2) and one supporting benign criterion (BP4), the evidence is balanced and insufficient to reach a likely pathogenic or likely benign classification.
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 shown when status is available
All criteria require review: For research and educational purposes only.
| Criterion | Status | Rationale | Evidence used |
|---|---|---|---|
| PVS1 | N/A | NM_003073.4:c.787A>G is a missense variant (p.Ile263Val) and does not fall into the default generic PVS1 null-variant buckets of nonsense, frameshift, or canonical ±1,2 splice consensus variants. |

pvs1_variant_assessment
|
| PS1 | Not assessed | No evidence of a different nucleotide change at codon 263 producing the same amino acid substitution (p.Ile263Val) that has been previously classified as pathogenic. |
|
| PS2 | Not assessed | No de novo observation data available for this variant. |
|
| PS3 | Not assessed | No variant-specific functional studies identified. OncoKB did not identify variant-specific reviewed functional evidence. In silico predictions alone do not constitute functional assay evidence for PS3. |
oncokb
|
| PS4 | Not assessed | No case-control data or variant-specific case counts available. The two ClinVar submissions are from clinical testing laboratories without publicly available case-level phenotype data. The cited PMIDs (25394175, 28492532) are methodological/guideline papers, not case reports for this variant. |
clinvar
|
| PS5 | Not met | No reputable source has classified this variant as pathogenic. ClinVar classification is Uncertain significance from two clinical laboratories. The two associated PMIDs do not classify this variant as pathogenic. |
clinvar
|
| PM1 | Not assessed | The variant does not lie in a statistically significant hotspot per the Cancer Hotspots assessment. No domain-specific functional data was recovered for residue 263 to establish a critical functional domain. |
|
| PM2 | Met | The variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and present at extremely low frequency in gnomAD v4.1 (allele frequency = 9.29e-06, 15/1,613,888 alleles, 0 homozygotes; grpmax FAF = 6.88e-06). This is well below the 0.1% PM2 threshold for generic ACMG/AMP. Absent from gnomAD-Canada. |

| PM5 | N/A | Unable to confirm classic same-residue PM5 semantics; no comparator candidate variants identified at residue 263 with a different pathogenic missense change. |

|
| PM6 | Not assessed | No de novo observation data available for this variant. |
|
| PP1 | Not assessed | No segregation data available for this variant. |
|
| PP2 | Not assessed | No gene-level constraint metrics (e.g., Missense Z-score, gnomAD constraint) were retrieved to establish a low rate of benign missense variation in SMARCB1. |
|
| PP3 | Not met | Multiple lines of computational evidence do not support a deleterious effect. REVEL score 0.326 is below the typical pathogenic threshold of 0.5. BayesDel score -0.137856 is negative, predicting a benign effect. SpliceAI max delta score 0.01 predicts no splicing impact. |

| PP4 | Not assessed | No patient-specific phenotypic data available for this variant. |
|
| PP5 | Not met | No reputable source has classified this variant as pathogenic. ClinVar classification is Uncertain significance. The two associated PMIDs (25394175 and 28492532) are methodological papers that do not specifically address or classify this variant. |

|
| BA1 | N/A | The variant allele frequency in gnomAD v4.1 is 9.29e-06 (0.00093%), far below the 1% BA1 threshold. |
gnomad_v4
|
| BS1 | Not met | The variant allele frequency in gnomAD v4.1 is 0.00093% (9.29e-06), far below the 0.3% BS1 threshold for generic ACMG/AMP. |
gnomad_v4
|
| BS2 | Not assessed | While the variant is observed in gnomAD v4.1 in 15 heterozygous individuals, gnomAD does not provide individual-level phenotype confirmation of healthy adult status. For a disorder with variable expressivity and age-dependent penetrance, observation at very low frequency in a population database does not independently satisfy BS2 without confirmed asymptomatic carrier data. |
gnomad_v4
|
| BS3 | Not assessed | No variant-specific functional assays demonstrating no damaging effect are available. In silico scores (REVEL 0.326, BayesDel -0.137856) are suggestive but do not constitute functional assay evidence for BS3. |
|
| BS4 | Not assessed | No family segregation data available for this variant. |
|
| BP1 | Not assessed | While loss-of-function is an established disease mechanism for SMARCB1, missense variants are also documented as disease-causing in SMARCB1-related disorders (e.g., Coffin-Siris syndrome, schwannomatosis). The gene is not limited to a truncating-only disease mechanism, and BP1 cannot be applied without confirming that this specific missense change is not in a domain where missense variants are pathogenic. |
|
| BP2 | Not assessed | No data on observation in trans with a pathogenic variant in SMARCB1. |
|
| BP4 | Met | Multiple lines of computational evidence suggest no significant impact on the gene product. SpliceAI max delta score is 0.01 (no predicted splicing impact). REVEL score is 0.326 (below pathogenic threshold of 0.5). BayesDel score is -0.137856 (negative, predicting a benign effect). Three independent in silico predictors concur on no deleterious effect. |

| BP7 | N/A | This is a missense variant (c.787A>G, p.Ile263Val), not a synonymous variant. BP7 applies only to synonymous variants with no predicted splice impact. |
