Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
PM2 (Supporting): variant essentially absent from population databases — gnomAD v4.1 AF 1.24e-06 (2/1,614,080 alleles, 0 homozygotes); absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD-Canada v1.0.
2
BP4 (Supporting): REVEL 0.287 falls within the ClinGen SVI-calibrated BP4-supporting interval (0.183-0.290), predicting a benign/tolerated effect; SpliceAI max delta 0.00 corroborates no splice impact.
3
Final classification VUS: the single supporting pathogenic-leaning criterion (PM2) and single supporting benign-leaning criterion (BP4) satisfy no generic ACMG/AMP combination rule, so the result defaults to VUS.
Final determination:
Generic ACMG/AMP 2015 fallback combination rule: with applied criteria PM2 (supporting) and BP4 (supporting) only, no pathogenic (e.g., PVS1 + 1 PS, 2 PS, 1 PS + 3 PM), likely pathogenic (e.g., 3 PM, 1 PM + 4 PP, 1 PS + 1 PM), benign (BA1 alone or 2 BS), or likely benign (1 BS + 1 BP or 2 BP) combination is satisfied; all remaining combinations, including 1 supporting + 1 supporting in opposite directions, default to Variant of Uncertain Significance.

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 missense substitution does not belong to the null-variant classes (nonsense, frameshift, splice-consensus, initiation-loss, stop-loss) PVS1 requires. |

|
| PS1 | Not met | Not met: no pathogenic submission for p.(Pro246Leu) exists in ClinVar; the only entry is a single-submitter Uncertain significance record. |

| PS2 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no de novo occurrence with confirmed maternity and paternity has been reported for this variant. |

|
| PS3 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no well-established functional studies of this variant exist; in silico scores (REVEL 0.287, SpliceAI 0.00) cannot satisfy PS3. |

|
| PS4 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no case-control or cohort enrichment data exist for this variant; the sole ClinVar entry supplies no affected-case counts. |

|
| PM1 | Not met | Not met: residue 246 is not a statistically significant cancer hotspot (Cancer Hotspots no_result), and no critical functional domain around it could be established. |

| PM2 | Met | Met (supporting): essentially absent from population databases — gnomAD v4.1 AF 1.24e-06 (2/1,614,080 alleles, 0 homozygotes); absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD-Canada v1.0. |

|
| PM3 | N/A | Not applicable: MET germline disease is autosomal dominant, so the recessive-disorder trans requirement (pathogenic variant in trans) is unmet. |

|
| PM4 | N/A | Not applicable: this missense substitution does not change protein length, so the in-frame indel/stop-loss criterion has nothing to evaluate. |

| PM5 | Not met | Not met: no pathogenic missense variant at a different amino acid at residue 246 is documented (absence-of-evidence determination). |
