Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
This variant is essentially absent from population databases, with a single heterozygous observation in gnomAD v4.1 (1/1,613,826 alleles; AF = 6.2×10⁻⁷) and no observations in gnomAD v2.1 or gnomAD-Canada, satisfying PM2 at supporting strength.
2
No pathogenic or benign classifications exist in ClinVar. No functional studies, segregation data, de novo observations, or variant-specific publications are available. In silico predictors are conflicting (REVEL 0.638 suggesting possible deleterious effect; BayesDel 0.209 in benign range; SpliceAI delta 0.01).
3
With only one supporting pathogenic criterion (PM2_supporting) met and no benign criteria met, the variant does not reach the threshold for likely pathogenic, likely benign, or benign classification under generic ACMG/AMP 2015 combination rules. The variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS).
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
BP3 N/A BP3 applies to in-frame insertions/deletions only; this is a missense substitution.
PM3 N/A PM3 applies to recessive disorders requiring a second pathogenic variant in trans; CDK6 is not established as a recessive disease gene and no second variant data is available.
PM4 N/A PM4 applies to protein length changes (stop-loss, in-frame insertions/deletions); this is a missense substitution.
PVS1 N/A PVS1 is reserved for null variants (nonsense, frameshift, canonical ±1,2 splice consensus). NM_001259.8:c.401A>G is a missense variant (p.Asp134Gly) and does not fall into any PVS1 decision tree bucket per the ClinGen SVI PVS1 framework (PMC6185798).

PS1 Not met No pathogenic variant at the same amino acid position (Asp134) with the same amino acid change has been identified in ClinVar or the literature. The variant is absent from ClinVar.
clinvar
PS2 Not met No de novo observation with confirmed maternity and paternity is available for this variant. No publications report de novo occurrence of CDK6 c.401A>G.
PS3 Not met No well-established in vitro or in vivo functional studies demonstrating a damaging effect are available for this variant. OncoKB classifies it as 'Unknown Oncogenic Effect' with no variant-specific functional evidence.
oncokb
PS4 Not met No case-control or cohort data comparing variant prevalence in affected versus unaffected individuals is available. The variant is observed in only 1 of 1,613,826 alleles in gnomAD v4.1 with no disease-specific prevalence data.
gnomad_v4
PS5 Not met No reputable source has reported this variant as pathogenic. The variant is absent from ClinVar; no submitter classification exists.
clinvar
PM1 Not met The variant does not lie in a statistically significant mutational hotspot (CancerHotspots.org). Although residue Asp134 is located within the CDK6 protein kinase domain, there is no domain-specific constraint data demonstrating a critical functional domain with low benign variation sufficient for PM1 application under generic ACMG.
PM2 Met This variant is essentially absent from population databases. It is absent from gnomAD v2.1, absent from gnomAD-Canada v1.0, and present at extremely low frequency in gnomAD v4.1 (1/1,613,826 alleles; AF = 6.2×10⁻⁷), with the sole observation in the Finnish subpopulation (1/64,022; AF = 1.56×10⁻⁵). All frequencies are well below the 0.1% PM2 threshold for non-VCEP assessment.

PM5 N/A No pathogenic missense variant at the same amino acid residue (Asp134) has been identified in ClinVar or the literature. PM5 candidate harvesting returned zero same-residue comparators.
pm5_candidates
PM6 Not met No de novo observation without paternity/maternity confirmation is available for this variant. No publications report de novo occurrence of CDK6 c.401A>G.
PP1 Not met No cosegregation data in affected families is available for this variant.
PP2 Not met While CDK6 has a supported loss-of-function disease mechanism per targeted germline literature review, no missense constraint metric (e.g., missense Z-score, missense pLI) is available to demonstrate a low rate of benign missense variation. HCI prior probability is not available for CDK6.
PP3 Not met Multiple lines of computational evidence do not consistently support a deleterious effect. REVEL score is 0.638 (moderate, above 0.5 threshold), but BayesDel score is 0.209 (benign range, below 0.25 threshold), and SpliceAI predicts no splicing impact (max delta = 0.01). The in silico evidence is conflicting rather than uniformly deleterious.

PP4 Not met No patient phenotype or family history data is available to assess phenotypic specificity for CDK6-related disease.
PP5 Not met No reputable source has reported this variant as pathogenic. The variant is absent from ClinVar.
clinvar
BA1 Not met The variant's allele frequency is far below the BA1 threshold. The highest observed population frequency is 1.56×10⁻⁵ (Finnish subpopulation, gnomAD v4.1), well below the 1% BA1 threshold.
gnomad_v4
BS1 Not met The variant's allele frequency is far below the BS1 threshold. The overall gnomAD v4.1 frequency is 6.2×10⁻⁷ (1/1,613,826 alleles), far below the 0.3% BS1 threshold for disorders with expected low population prevalence.
gnomad_v4
BS2 Not met Only a single heterozygous observation exists in gnomAD v4.1 (1 allele out of 1,613,826). This single observation is insufficient to apply BS2, which requires observation in multiple healthy adults for a disorder expected to be fully penetrant at an early age. No homozygous observations exist.
gnomad_v4
BS3 Not met No well-established in vitro or in vivo functional studies demonstrating no damaging effect are available for this variant.
BS4 Not met No segregation data demonstrating lack of cosegregation with disease is available for this variant.
BP1 Not met While CDK6 loss of function may be associated with disease per targeted germline literature review, there is no established evidence that CDK6-related disease is caused primarily by truncating variants such that missense variants are expected to be benign. The available literature supports a general LoF mechanism but does not specify a truncating-predominant mutational spectrum.
BP2 Not met No data on observations of this variant in trans with a pathogenic variant (for dominant disorders) or in cis with a pathogenic variant is available.
BP4 Not met Multiple lines of computational evidence do not consistently suggest no impact on gene or gene product. REVEL score (0.638) suggests a possible deleterious effect, conflicting with the lower BayesDel score (0.209). Evidence is not uniformly benign.

BP5 Not met No data is available indicating this variant is found in a case with an alternate molecular basis for disease.
BP6 Not met No reputable source has reported this variant as benign. The variant is absent from ClinVar.
clinvar
BP7 N/A BP7 applies to synonymous variants without predicted splice impact. NM_001259.8:c.401A>G is a missense variant (p.Asp134Gly).
