Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
PM2 (Supporting): absent from gnomAD v2.1, v4.1, and Canada (AF 0), below the <0.1% threshold.
2
BP4 (Supporting): SpliceAI max delta 0.00 and BayesDel −0.186 predict no impact on the gene product.
3
VUS: PM2 + BP4 (one supporting each) satisfies no Pathogenic, Likely Pathogenic, Benign, or Likely Benign rule in the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 combination table.
Final determination: Generic ACMG/AMP 2015 fallback combination rule: with only 1 pathogenic supporting (PM2) and 1 benign supporting (BP4) criterion applied, no Pathogenic, Likely Pathogenic, Benign, or Likely Benign combination threshold is met, 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 Not applicable: missense substitution, not a null variant class, so no nonsense-mediated decay or truncation mechanism is triggered.
pvs1_generic_framework generic_acmg_combination_rules
PS1 Not met Not met: no established pathogenic variant produces the same p.Lys965Asn change; the only ClinVar entry is a 1-star VUS.
clinvar pm5_candidates PMID:25394175
PS2 Not assessed Not assessed: no de novo occurrence or parental testing for this variant is recorded in any source.
clinvar PMID:25394175 generic_acmg_combination_rules
PS3 Not assessed Not assessed: no functional studies exist; OncoKB reports no variant-specific evidence and COSMIC lacks the variant.
PS4 Not assessed Not assessed: no case-control or case-series data exist for this variant in any retrieved source.
clinvar
PM1 Not met Not met: residue 965 shows no statistically significant cancer hotspot and no curated critical-domain annotation.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4
PM2 Met Met (supporting): absent from gnomAD v2.1, v4.1, and Canada (AF 0), below the <0.1% threshold.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 gnomad_canada
PM3 N/A Not applicable: RET cancer syndromes are autosomal dominant, so the recessive in-trans requirement does not apply.
clinvar generic_acmg_combination_rules
PM4 N/A Not applicable: missense substitution with no protein length change, so there is nothing to evaluate.
pvs1_generic_framework generic_acmg_combination_rules
PM5 Not met Not met: no pathogenic alternate missense at residue 965; the screen found zero same-residue candidates.
pm5_candidates clinvar PMID:25394175
PM6 Not assessed Not assessed: no de novo occurrence or parental genotypes are reported for this variant.
clinvar PMID:25394175 generic_acmg_combination_rules
PP1 Not assessed Not assessed: no co-segregation data — no affected relatives, pedigree, or segregation counts available.
clinvar PMID:25394175 generic_acmg_combination_rules
PP2 Not assessed Not assessed: missense is a known RET disease mechanism, but no gene-level benign-missense-rate data was available.
oncokb
PP3 Not met Not met: no in silico tool predicts damage — SpliceAI 0.00, BayesDel −0.186, REVEL 0.529 intermediate.
spliceai revel bayesdel generic_acmg_combination_rules
PP4 Not assessed Not assessed: no proband phenotype or family history information was available for this variant.
clinvar
PP5 Not met Not met: no ClinVar expert-panel pathogenic assertion; the sole submission is a non-expert 1-star VUS.
clinvar
BA1 Not met Not met: absent from gnomAD (AF 0), far below the >1% general-population threshold.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 gnomad_canada
BS1 Not met Not met: allele frequency 0 does not exceed the expected frequency for this rare dominant disorder.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 gnomad_canada
BS2 Not met Not met: no observations in healthy controls — variant absent from gnomAD with no homozygous carriers.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 gnomad_canada clinvar
BS3 Not assessed Not assessed: no functional studies demonstrating a lack of damaging effect exist for this variant.
BS4 Not assessed Not assessed: no family segregation data — no affected relatives tested or pedigree provided.
clinvar PMID:25394175 generic_acmg_combination_rules
BP1 Not met Not met: activating missense variants are an established RET disease mechanism, so missense cannot be assumed benign.
oncokb pvs1_gene_context
BP2 Not assessed Not assessed: no in-trans or in-cis observation with a pathogenic variant is documented for this variant.
clinvar generic_acmg_combination_rules
BP3 N/A Not applicable: missense substitution, not an in-frame indel in a repetitive region.
pvs1_generic_framework generic_acmg_combination_rules
BP4 Met Met (supporting): SpliceAI max delta 0.00 and BayesDel −0.186 both predict no impact (REVEL 0.529 indeterminate).
spliceai bayesdel revel pvs1_variant_assessment generic_acmg_combination_rules
BP5 Not assessed Not assessed: no reported case of this variant with an alternate molecular basis for disease.
clinvar
BP6 Not met Not met: no ClinVar expert-panel benign assertion; the sole submission is a non-expert 1-star VUS.
clinvar
BP7 N/A Not applicable: missense substitution, not a synonymous variant, so the silent-variant premise fails.
