Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
PM2 (Supporting): absent from all population databases — gnomAD v2.1 exomes, v4.1 exomes, and gnomAD-Canada v1.0 genomes (observed AF = 0).
2
PP3 (Moderate): REVEL 0.736 falls within the ClinGen SVI-calibrated moderate band (0.644–0.773).
3
Overall: VUS — the 1 moderate + 1 supporting combination satisfies no Pathogenic, Likely Pathogenic, Benign, or Likely Benign threshold in the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 rules.
Final determination:
Generic ACMG/AMP 2015 combination rules (PMID:25741868): with only PM2 (supporting) and PP3 (moderate) met - 1 moderate + 1 supporting - none of the Pathogenic, Likely Pathogenic, Benign, or Likely Benign combination thresholds is satisfied, 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 | Not applicable: this is a missense substitution (p.Thr138Asn), so no null-variant mechanism such as nonsense-mediated decay applies. |
pvs1_generic_framework
generic_acmg_combination_rules
|
| PS1 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no established pathogenic variant producing the same amino-acid change (p.Thr138Asn) exists; this is the only single-nucleotide change that yields Asn at codon 138. |
clinvar
pm5_candidates
|
| PS2 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no proband, parental, or de novo occurrence data were available to evaluate. |
|
| PS3 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no validated variant-specific functional assay data were available; in silico predictions do not qualify as functional studies. |

|
| PS4 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no case-control or cohort enrichment data exist for this variant. |
clinvar
generic_acmg_combination_rules
|
| PM1 | Not assessed | Not assessed: position 138 is not a known IDH2 hotspot (R140/R172 are), and no protein-domain annotation was available to evaluate the critical-domain arm. |
|
| PM2 | Met | Met (supporting): absent from all population databases — gnomAD v2.1 exomes, v4.1 exomes, and gnomAD-Canada v1.0 genomes (observed AF = 0). |

|
| PM3 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no second pathogenic allele or phase (trans/cis) information was available, and no recessive germline disorder applies. |
clinvar
generic_acmg_combination_rules
|
| PM4 | N/A | Not applicable: missense substitution produces no change in protein length. |
pvs1_generic_framework
generic_acmg_combination_rules
|
| PM5 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no different missense change at residue 138 has been established as pathogenic. |
pm5_candidates
clinvar
|
| PM6 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no de novo occurrence data, confirmed or unconfirmed, were available. |
|
| PP1 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no segregation or pedigree data were available, and IDH2's germline disease association is not established. |
|
| PP2 | Not assessed | Not assessed: missense is a common disease mechanism for IDH2, but no gene-level missense constraint metric was available. |
oncokb
|
| PP3 | Met | Met (moderate): REVEL 0.736 falls within the ClinGen SVI-calibrated PP3 moderate band (0.644–0.773). |

|
| BP4 | Not met | Not met: REVEL 0.736 is far above the ClinGen-calibrated BP4 supporting threshold (≤0.016). |
