Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
No criterion was met: under the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 combination rules (no ClinGen VCEP exists for GALNT12), zero applied criteria yield a classification of VUS.
Final determination: Generic ACMG/AMP 2015 fallback: with no criteria applied in either direction, no Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic/Benign/Likely Benign combination threshold is met, so the variant defaults to 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: this is a missense change (p.Arg154Trp), not a null variant, so no nonsense-mediated decay or truncation mechanism applies.
pvs1_generic_framework generic_acmg_combination_rules
PS1 Not assessed Not assessed: no evidence of a different nucleotide change at this codon producing the identical p.Arg154Trp change with an established pathogenic classification.
PS2 Not assessed Not assessed: no confirmed de novo occurrence of p.Arg154Trp is documented in the proband or family.
PS3 Not assessed Not assessed: no functional assay data for this variant (e.g., glycosyltransferase activity) was available.
PS4 Not assessed Not assessed: no case-control enrichment data, odds ratio, or significance was available for this variant.
PM1 Not assessed Not assessed: no established germline mutational hotspot or critical domain map is defined for GALNT12.
PM2 Not met Not met: the variant is present in gnomAD v4.1 (45/1,612,678 alleles, AF 2.8e-05), not absent from population databases.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 gnomad_canada generic_acmg_combination_rules
PM3 Not assessed Not assessed: no affected-proband observations or a pathogenic variant documented in trans with p.Arg154Trp were available.
PMID:25741868
PM4 N/A Not applicable: this is a missense change, so no alteration in protein length occurs.
pvs1_generic_framework generic_acmg_combination_rules
PM5 Not assessed Not assessed: no other missense change at Arg154 with an established pathogenic classification was available.
PM6 Not assessed Not assessed: no suspected de novo occurrence of p.Arg154Trp without parental confirmation is documented.
PP1 Not assessed Not assessed: no affected or unaffected relatives were tested, so cosegregation with disease cannot be evaluated.
PP2 Not assessed Not assessed: no gene-level missense constraint metric (e.g., gnomAD missense Z-score) for GALNT12 was available.
PP3 Not met Not met: REVEL score 0.607 falls in the gray zone [0.25-0.75], below the >0.75 PP3 threshold.
revel generic_acmg_combination_rules
PP4 Not assessed Not assessed: no patient-level phenotype documentation matching a GALNT12-associated disorder was available.
clinvar
PP5 Not assessed Not assessed: no ClinVar expert-panel pathogenic classification exists for this exact variant; all four submissions are uncertain significance.
clinvar
BA1 Not met Not met: highest observed population frequency is 8.0e-05 (gnomAD v4.1 African/African American), far below the >5% BA1 threshold.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 gnomad_canada generic_acmg_combination_rules
BS1 Not met Not met: maximum observed allele frequency is 2.8e-05 (gnomAD v4.1), not higher than expected for a rare Mendelian disease allele.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 gnomad_canada generic_acmg_combination_rules
BS2 Not assessed Not assessed: no homozygous carriers or healthy adult genotype observations were reported.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 gnomad_canada
BS3 Not assessed Not assessed: no functional assay data showing wild-type-like activity for this variant was available.
BS4 Not assessed Not assessed: no informative affected relatives lacking the variant were documented.
BP1 Not assessed Not assessed: no gene-specific evidence establishes that missense changes are not a recognized disease mechanism in GALNT12.
BP2 Not assessed Not assessed: no co-occurrence of this variant with a pathogenic variant (in trans or cis) was documented.
PMID:25741868
BP3 N/A Not applicable: this is a missense change, not an in-frame indel in a repetitive region.
pvs1_generic_framework generic_acmg_combination_rules
BP4 Not met Not met: REVEL score 0.607 is above the <0.25 BP4 threshold.
revel generic_acmg_combination_rules
BP5 Not assessed Not assessed: no alternative molecular diagnosis explaining the patient's presentation was documented.
BP6 Not assessed Not assessed: no ClinVar expert-panel benign classification exists for this exact variant.
clinvar
BP7 N/A Not applicable: this is a missense change, not a synonymous variant.
