Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
PVS1 (Very Strong): the 13-bp frameshift is predicted to trigger nonsense-mediated decay, and loss of function is an established ARID1A disease mechanism.
2
PM2 (Supporting): the exact 13-bp duplication is absent from gnomAD v2.1, v4.1, and gnomAD-Canada.
3
Overall: Likely Pathogenic under generic ACMG/AMP 2015 combination rules (PVS1 very strong + PM2 supporting).
Final determination:
1 PVS1 (very strong) + 1 supporting-strength criterion (PM2) → Likely Pathogenic per the ClinGen SVI 2020 PM2-downgrade addendum (Post_P 0.988).

Criteria shown when status is available
All criteria require review: For research and educational purposes only.
| Criterion | Status | Rationale | Evidence used |
|---|---|---|---|
| PVS1 | Met | Met (Very Strong): the 13-bp frameshift creates a premature stop at codon 626 predicted to trigger nonsense-mediated decay. |

spliceai
|
| PS1 | N/A | Not applicable: this frameshift produces no altered amino acid to compare against an established pathogenic missense. |
generic_acmg_combination_rules
|
| PS2 | Not assessed | Not assessed: parental genotypes confirming a de novo occurrence are unavailable. |
|
| PS3 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no functional assay evidence specific to this variant was available. |
|
| PS4 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no case-control or affected-cohort data for this exact variant were available. |
|
| PM1 | N/A | Not applicable: hot-spot and critical-domain criteria apply to missense variants, not frameshifts. |
generic_acmg_combination_rules
|
| PM2 | Met | Met (Supporting): the exact 13-bp duplication is absent from gnomAD v2.1, v4.1, and gnomAD-Canada. |
gnomad_v2
gnomad_v4
gnomad_canada
|
| PM3 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no phase data, in-trans pathogenic variant, or affected-proband observations were available. |
|
| PM4 | N/A | Not applicable: PM4 concerns protein length changes, and this frameshift does not alter protein length. |
pvs1_generic_framework
generic_acmg_combination_rules
|
| PM5 | N/A | Not applicable: no missense change exists at this residue to compare against a pathogenic missense at the same position. |
generic_acmg_combination_rules
|
| PM6 | Not assessed | Not assessed: parental testing documenting a presumed de novo occurrence is unavailable. |
|
| PP1 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no segregation data from affected relatives were available. |
|
| PP2 | N/A | Not applicable: PP2 applies to missense variants, so missense-constraint assessment is irrelevant for this frameshift. |
generic_acmg_combination_rules
|
| PP3 | Not met | Not met: SpliceAI max delta 0.108 falls in the gray zone (0.1-0.2), meeting neither PP3 nor BP4. |
spliceai
|
| PP4 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no phenotype evidence indicating an ARID1A-specific presentation was available. |
|
| PP5 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no ClinVar expert-panel pathogenic classification exists for this exact variant. |
clinvar
|
| BA1 | Not met | Not met: the variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1, v4.1, and gnomAD-Canada, so no stand-alone benign frequency threshold is reached. |
gnomad_v2
gnomad_v4
gnomad_canada
|
| BS1 | Not met | Not met: absent from population databases, so no allele frequency above the disease-prevalence threshold is available. |
gnomad_v2
gnomad_v4
gnomad_canada
|
| BS2 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no healthy homozygous individuals or genotype-quality data were available. |

|
| BS3 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no functional assay showing no damaging effect for this variant was available. |
|
| BS4 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no unaffected relatives or non-segregation analysis were available. |
|
| BP1 | N/A | Not applicable: BP1 applies to missense variants, and this frameshift is the disease-causing variant class. |
generic_acmg_combination_rules
|
| BP2 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no phase-resolved allelic observations were available. |
|
| BP3 | N/A | Not applicable: BP3 concerns in-frame changes in repetitive regions, which this frameshift is not. |
pvs1_generic_framework
generic_acmg_combination_rules
|
| BP4 | Not met | Not met: SpliceAI max delta 0.108 exceeds the BP4 threshold of <0.1 and falls in the indeterminate gray zone. |
spliceai
|
| BP5 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no alternative molecular etiology or phenotype information was available. |
|
| BP6 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no ClinVar expert-panel benign classification exists for this exact variant. |
clinvar
|
| BP7 | N/A | Not applicable: BP7 applies to synonymous variants, and this frameshift alters the protein sequence. |
