Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
NM_001127208.2:c.5666C>T (p.Pro1889Leu) is a missense variant in exon 11 of TET2.
2
This variant is extremely rare in population databases: absent from gnomAD v2.1 (0/155,736 alleles) and present at an allele frequency of 6.45×10⁻⁷ in gnomAD v4.1 (1/1,551,522 alleles), well below the 0.1% threshold for PM2 (supporting).
3
Multiple in silico predictors suggest the variant is benign: REVEL score 0.398, BayesDel score -0.091, and SpliceAI predicts no splice impact (max delta = 0.00), meeting BP4 (supporting benign).
4
The variant is absent from ClinVar and has no published functional data. No papers were identified that mention NM_001127208.2:c.5666C>T specifically.
5
The variant has been observed in COSMIC (COSV54425537, n=4) as a somatic finding in cancer but lacks germline functional characterization.
6
PVS1 is not applicable (missense variant, not a null variant). PS1, PM5, and BP7 are not applicable due to lack of same-residue comparators or variant type mismatch.
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 | This is a missense variant (p.Pro1889Leu). It does not fall into the ClinGen SVI PVS1 null-variant buckets (nonsense, frameshift, or canonical ±1,2 splice consensus). Generic PVS1 framework assessment is not applicable. |

|
| PS1 | Not met | No previously established pathogenic variant at the same amino acid position (Pro1889) has been identified in ClinVar. The variant is absent from ClinVar entirely. |
clinvar
|
| PS2 | Not assessed | No de novo data (with confirmed paternity and maternity) are available for this variant. |
|
| PS3 | Not met | No well-established in vitro or in vivo functional studies have been identified for this variant. In silico predictors are inconsistent: REVEL score is 0.398 (below 0.5 pathogenicity threshold) and BayesDel score is -0.091 (benign-leaning). OncoKB classifies this variant as having unknown oncogenic effect with no variant-specific curated functional evidence. |

|
| PS4 | Not assessed | No case-control data comparing variant prevalence in affected individuals versus controls are available. |
|
| PS5 | Not assessed | No data are available regarding an alternate molecular basis for disease in a patient carrying this variant. |
|
| PM1 | Not met | This variant does not lie in a statistically significant mutational hotspot. The variant (Pro1889Leu) is located in the C-terminal region of TET2 but has not been identified within a recognized functional domain where pathogenic missense variants cluster without benign variation. |
|
| PM2 | Met | This variant is extremely rare in population databases. It is absent from gnomAD v2.1 (0/155,736 alleles) and gnomAD-Canada (0 alleles). In gnomAD v4.1, it is observed at an allele frequency of 6.45×10⁻⁷ (1/1,551,522 alleles), well below the 0.1% PM2 threshold. |

| PM5 | N/A | No same-residue (Pro1889) comparator variants classified as pathogenic were identified in ClinVar. PM5 candidate harvesting returned zero candidates. |

|
| PM6 | Not assessed | No de novo data (without paternity/maternity confirmation) are available for this variant. |
|
| PP1 | Not assessed | No cosegregation data in affected family members are available. |
|
| PP2 | Not met | TET2 is not recognized as a gene with a low rate of benign missense variation. TET2 is frequently mutated in hematologic malignancies and population databases, and the established germline disease mechanism involves loss-of-function variants (including both truncating and missense). PP2 is not applicable in this context. |

|
| PP3 | Not met | Multiple lines of computational evidence do not support a deleterious effect. REVEL score is 0.398 (below the 0.5 pathogenic threshold), BayesDel score is -0.091 (benign-leaning), and SpliceAI predicts no splice impact (max delta = 0.00). No HCI prior score is available for TET2. |

| PP4 | Not assessed | No patient phenotype or family history data are available to assess specificity for TET2-related disease. |
|
| PP5 | Not met | No reputable source (ClinVar, published literature) has reported this variant as pathogenic. The variant is absent from ClinVar, and OncoKB classifies it as having unknown oncogenic effect. |

| BA1 | Not met | This variant has an allele frequency of 6.45×10⁻⁷ (0.00006%) in gnomAD v4.1, far below the 1% BA1 threshold. It does not meet the stand-alone benign population frequency criterion. |

| BS1 | Not met | This variant has an allele frequency of 6.45×10⁻⁷ in gnomAD v4.1, far below the 0.3% BS1 threshold. The variant is too rare to meet BS1. |

| BS2 | Not assessed | No data are available regarding observation of this variant in healthy adults at an age when fully penetrant disease would be expected. |
|
| BS3 | Not met | No well-established in vitro or in vivo functional studies demonstrating no damaging effect on protein function or splicing have been identified for this variant. Computational predictions alone (BayesDel -0.091, REVEL 0.398) are insufficient to meet BS3. |

|
| BS4 | Not assessed | No segregation data in affected family members are available to assess lack of cosegregation with disease. |
|
| BP1 | Not met | While TET2 germline disease is associated with loss-of-function variants, the published literature describes both truncating and missense germline variants (PMID:36066697, PMID:40031954). There is insufficient evidence that TET2 disease is primarily caused by truncating variants to the exclusion of missense variants. BP1 cannot be applied. |
|
| BP2 | Not assessed | No data are available regarding observation of this variant in trans with a known pathogenic variant for a fully penetrant dominant disorder. |
|
| BP4 | Met | Multiple lines of computational evidence suggest this variant has no significant impact on the gene product. REVEL score is 0.398 (below the pathogenic threshold), BayesDel score is -0.091 (benign-leaning), and SpliceAI predicts no splice alteration (max delta = 0.00). Three independent in silico tools converge on a neutral or benign prediction. |

| BP7 | N/A | This is a missense variant (c.5666C>T, p.Pro1889Leu), not a synonymous or intronic variant. BP7 applies only to synonymous variants with no predicted splice impact. |
