Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
NM_005475.2:c.835-15C>T is an intronic SH2B3 variant located 15 bases upstream of exon 3. It is not a canonical splice site variant and SpliceAI predicts no splicing impact (max delta 0.03).
2
The variant is extremely rare in population databases: gnomAD v2.1 AF=7.97e-06 (2/251,006 alleles, 0 homozygotes) and gnomAD v4.1 AF=1.80e-05 (29/1,612,940 alleles, 0 homozygotes), meeting PM2 at supporting level.
3
No ClinVar entry, no publications mentioning this variant, and no functional data are available. The variant remains a Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS) with one supporting pathogenic criterion (PM2) and one supporting benign criterion (BP4: SpliceAI predicts no splice impact).
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 | Intronic variant (c.835-15C>T) does not fall into any ClinGen SVI PVS1 null-variant bucket: not a nonsense, frameshift, or canonical ±1,2 splice consensus variant. PVS1 is not applicable per PMC6185798. |
pvs1_generic_framework
|
| PS1 | N/A | Intronic variant does not alter an amino acid; PS1 (same amino acid change as an established pathogenic variant) is not applicable. |
|
| PS2 | Not assessed | No de novo data available for this variant in any source. |
|
| PS3 | Not assessed | No well-established functional study data available. In silico tools (REVEL, BayesDel) do not score intronic positions. No functional assay publications identified for this variant. |
|
| PS4 | Not assessed | No case-control or cohort data available. Variant is absent from ClinVar and no publications report this variant in affected individuals. |
|
| PS5 | Not assessed | Variant is absent from ClinVar; no reputable source has independently classified this variant as pathogenic. |
clinvar
|
| PM1 | N/A | Intronic variant does not reside in a known protein functional domain or mutational hot spot. PM1 is applicable to coding-region variants affecting critical residues or domains. |
|
| PM2 | Met | Extremely low frequency in population databases, meeting PM2 threshold of <0.1%: gnomAD v2.1 AF=7.97e-06 (0.00080%, 2/251,006 alleles, 0 homozygotes), gnomAD v4.1 AF=1.80e-05 (0.00180%, 29/1,612,940 alleles, 0 homozygotes). Absent from gnomAD-Canada v1.0. |

|
| PM5 | N/A | Intronic variant does not produce an amino acid change; PM5 (same position, different pathogenic missense) is not applicable. |
|
| PM6 | Not assessed | No de novo data available for this variant; PM6 cannot be assessed without confirmed maternity/paternity and de novo observation. |
|
| PP1 | Not assessed | No cosegregation data available for this variant. |
|
| PP2 | N/A | PP2 applies specifically to missense variants in genes with a low rate of benign missense variation. This is an intronic substitution, not a missense variant. |
|
| PP3 | Not met | Multiple lines of computational evidence do not support a deleterious effect. SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact (max delta=0.03, well below clinically meaningful thresholds for donor gain/loss and acceptor gain/loss). No other in silico predictors (REVEL, BayesDel) available for this intronic position. |
spliceai
|
| PP4 | Not assessed | No patient phenotype or family history data available for this variant. |
|
| PP5 | Not assessed | Variant is absent from ClinVar; no reputable source has independently classified this variant. |

| BS2 | Not met | No homozygotes observed in gnomAD (v2.1: 0 homozygotes among 251,006 alleles; v4.1: 0 homozygotes among 1,612,940 alleles). No evidence of healthy adult homozygosity or compound heterozygosity with a pathogenic variant. |

| BS3 | Not assessed | No well-established functional study data available demonstrating no deleterious effect for this variant. |
|
| BS4 | Not assessed | No nonsegregation data available for this variant. |
|
| BP1 | N/A | BP1 applies specifically to missense variants in genes where truncating variants are the predominant disease mechanism. This is an intronic substitution. |
|
| BP2 | Not assessed | No data on observation in trans with a pathogenic variant in SH2B3. |
|
| BP4 | Met | SpliceAI predicts no splicing alteration (max delta score = 0.03), well below clinically significant thresholds. For an intronic variant, splicing is the primary functional concern and SpliceAI is the most definitive computational predictor available. The very low delta score supports no impact on splicing. |
spliceai
|
| BP5 | Not assessed | No data on observation of this variant in a case with an alternate molecular basis for disease. |
|
| BP6 | Not assessed | Variant is absent from ClinVar; no reputable source has reported this variant as benign. |
clinvar
|
| BP7 | N/A | BP7 applies specifically to synonymous variants with no predicted splice impact. This is an intronic substitution, not a synonymous coding variant. |
|
| BP3 | N/A | BP3 applies to in-frame indels in repetitive regions; this is a substitution. |
|
| PM3 | N/A | PM3 (in trans with pathogenic variant in recessive disorder) not applicable — SH2B3-associated phenotypes show autosomal dominant or de novo inheritance patterns, and no trans-phase data available. |
|
| PM4 | N/A | PM4 applies to protein-length-altering variants (in-frame deletions/insertions, stop-loss); this is an intronic substitution. |
