Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
NM_006180.4:c.2061C>A (p.His687Gln) is a missense variant in exon 19 of NTRK2. It is absent from all population databases (gnomAD v2.1, v4.1, gnomAD-Canada), meeting PM2.
2
No functional studies, case reports, segregation data, de novo observations, or ClinVar classifications are available for this variant. No publications specifically mention NM_006180.4:c.2061C>A.
3
Computational predictors are discordant: REVEL score 0.77 supports a deleterious effect, but BayesDel score 0.307 is borderline and does not provide a second concordant predictor to meet PP3. SpliceAI predicts no splicing impact (max delta = 0.00).
4
With only PM2 (moderate) met, the evidence is insufficient to classify this variant as likely pathogenic or pathogenic under the ACMG/AMP 2015 framework (PMID:25741868). 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.
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 | PVS1 is reserved for loss-of-function (null) variants per ClinGen SVI recommendations (PMC6185798). NM_006180.4:c.2061C>A is a missense substitution (p.His687Gln) in exon 19 and does not fall into any null-variant bucket (nonsense, frameshift, canonical ±1,2 splice, initiation codon, or exon deletion). |
pvs1_generic_framework
|
| PS1 | Not met | No evidence of an established pathogenic variant with the same amino acid change (p.His687Gln) arising from a different nucleotide substitution. No ClinVar entries exist for any variant at this residue. |
clinvar
|
| PS2 | Not met | No de novo observations (with maternity and paternity confirmed) have been reported for this variant. No family-based studies or trio data are available. |
|
| PS3 | Not met | No variant-specific functional studies are available. OncoKB classifies this variant as 'Unknown Oncogenic Effect' and reports no reviewed functional evidence. No published functional data for NM_006180.4:c.2061C>A were identified. |
oncokb
|
| PS4 | Not met | No case-control studies or proband enrichment data are available. The variant has not been reported in affected individuals. |

| PS5 | N/A | PS5 is not part of the standard ACMG/AMP 2015 criteria (PMID:25741868). No equivalent evidence tier applies. |
|
| PM1 | Not met | While p.His687 lies within the NTRK2 tyrosine kinase domain (a well-established functional domain), the variant does not reside in a statistically significant mutational hotspot. No domain-level PM1 rule exists for NTRK2 under generic ACMG, and benign variation data for the domain are unavailable. |
|
| PM2 | Met | NM_006180.4:c.2061C>A is absent from all population databases including gnomAD v2.1, gnomAD v4.1, and gnomAD-Canada v1.0, consistent with a rare variant. Allele frequency is well below the 0.1% PM2 threshold. |

|
| PM5 | Not met | No pathogenic missense variants have been identified at the same amino acid residue (p.His687). Automated PM5 candidate harvesting found zero same-residue comparator variants in ClinVar. |

|
| PM6 | Not met | No assumed de novo observations (without maternity/paternity confirmation) have been reported for this variant. |
|
| PP1 | Not met | No cosegregation data in affected families are available for this variant. |
|
| PP2 | Not met | Insufficient evidence to establish that NTRK2 has a low rate of benign missense variation. No HCI prior score is available, and no gene-level constraint data for missense variation were identified. |
|
| PP3 | Not met | REVEL score 0.77 exceeds the 0.5 threshold and supports a deleterious effect, but BayesDel score 0.307 is borderline and does not provide a concordant strong pathogenic prediction. A single in silico predictor does not satisfy the 'multiple lines of computational evidence' requirement for PP3 under generic ACMG/AMP. |

| PP4 | Not met | No patient phenotype data are available. Assessment of phenotypic specificity for a single genetic etiology cannot be performed. |
|
| PP5 | N/A | PP5 is not part of the standard ACMG/AMP 2015 criteria (PMID:25741868). The variant is absent from ClinVar; no reputable source reports it as pathogenic. |

| BS2 | Not met | The variant has not been observed in healthy adults. No observations exist in any population database, precluding assessment of occurrence in healthy individuals despite expected full penetrance at an early age. |

| BS3 | Not met | No well-established functional studies demonstrating no deleterious effect are available. No functional assays have been performed for this variant. |
oncokb
|
| BS4 | Not met | No segregation data in affected families are available. Lack of segregation with disease cannot be demonstrated without pedigree information. |
|
| BP1 | Not met | While loss-of-function variants in NTRK2 have been implicated in germline disease, there is insufficient evidence that NTRK2-associated disease is caused primarily by truncating variants to the exclusion of missense changes. BP1 cannot be applied. |
pvs1_gene_context
|
| BP2 | Not met | Not observed in trans (or cis) with a pathogenic variant. No phasing or co-occurrence data are available. |
|
| BP4 | Not met | REVEL score 0.77 predicts a deleterious effect, which contradicts benign computational predictions. Multiple lines of computational evidence do NOT uniformly suggest no impact on the gene product; BP4 is not supported. |

|
| BP5 | Not met | No observation of this variant in a case with an alternate molecular basis for disease. No case-level data are available. |
|
| BP6 | Not met | No reputable source reports this variant as benign. The variant is absent from ClinVar. |
clinvar
|
| BP7 | N/A | BP7 is reserved for synonymous variants with no predicted splice impact. NM_006180.4:c.2061C>A is a missense variant (p.His687Gln), not a synonymous change. |
|
| BP3 | N/A | BP3 applies to in-frame deletions/insertions in repetitive regions; NM_006180.4:c.2061C>A is a single-nucleotide substitution. |
|
| PM3 | N/A | PM3 requires detection in trans with a pathogenic variant for recessive disorders; no second-variant data are available and inheritance pattern is not established. |
|
| PM4 | N/A | PM4 applies to in-frame deletions/insertions or stop-loss variants that alter protein length; NM_006180.4:c.2061C>A is a single-nucleotide missense substitution. |
