Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
PVS1 (Very Strong): frameshift p.(Glu1420AspfsTer12) introduces a premature stop 12 residues downstream, predicted to trigger nonsense-mediated decay.
2
PM2 (Supporting): the deletion is absent from gnomAD v2.1, v4.1, and gnomAD-Canada.
3
BP4 (Supporting): SpliceAI max delta 0.014 indicates no splice impact, but a single benign-supporting criterion does not override the pathogenic combination.
4
PVS1 (Very Strong) + PM2 (Supporting) = Likely Pathogenic under generic ACMG/AMP 2015 rules.

Criterion Status Rationale Evidence used
PVS1 Met Met (Very Strong): the single-nucleotide deletion creates frameshift p.(Glu1420AspfsTer12), with a premature stop 12 residues downstream predicted to trigger nonsense-mediated decay.

PS1 N/A Not applicable: as a frameshift, the variant produces no altered amino acid to compare against a previously pathogenic change.
generic_acmg_combination_rules
PS2 Not assessed Not assessed: no parental testing or confirmed de novo occurrence was available.
PS3 Not assessed Not assessed: no validated functional assay performed on this exact variant was available.
PS4 Not assessed Not assessed: no case-control or variant-enrichment data were identified.
PMID:23417712 PMID:24509477 PMID:25728682
PM1 N/A Not applicable: as a frameshift, the variant has no altered residue to evaluate for hotspot or critical-domain membership.
generic_acmg_combination_rules
PM2 Met Met (Supporting): the deletion is absent from gnomAD v2.1, v4.1, and gnomAD-Canada.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 gnomad_canada
PM3 Not assessed Not assessed: no proband carrying a second pathogenic SETD2 variant in trans was observed.
PM4 N/A Not applicable: the criterion evaluates protein length changes, and frameshifts do 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 known pathogenic missense.
generic_acmg_combination_rules
PM6 Not assessed Not assessed: no de novo occurrence without confirmed parentage was reported.
PP1 Not assessed Not assessed: no family pedigree or segregation data were provided.
PP2 N/A Not applicable: the criterion addresses missense variants, and this variant is a frameshift.
generic_acmg_combination_rules
PP3 Not met Not met: SpliceAI max delta 0.014 is far below thresholds supporting a deleterious splice effect.
spliceai
PP4 Not assessed Not assessed: no proband phenotype or diagnosis information was available.
pvs1_gene_context
PP5 Not met Not met: the variant is absent from ClinVar, so no expert-panel pathogenic assertion exists.
clinvar
BA1 Not met Not met: the variant is absent from gnomAD, providing no allele frequency that could satisfy BA1.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 gnomad_canada
BS1 Not met Not met: the variant is absent from gnomAD, with no frequency exceeding a benign-population threshold.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 gnomad_canada
BS2 Not assessed Not assessed: absence from population sources provides no adult or homozygous observations.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 gnomad_canada
BS3 Not assessed Not assessed: no functional assay data for this exact variant were available.
BS4 Not assessed Not assessed: no non-segregation observations, unaffected carriers, or affected non-carriers were available.
BP1 N/A Not applicable: the criterion addresses missense variants, and this variant is a frameshift.
generic_acmg_combination_rules
BP2 Not assessed Not assessed: no cis/trans co-occurrence or inheritance data were available.
BP3 N/A Not applicable: the criterion addresses in-frame changes in repetitive regions, not frameshifts.
pvs1_generic_framework generic_acmg_combination_rules
BP4 Met Met (Supporting): SpliceAI max delta 0.014 is well below the ~0.2 threshold for a splice-altering effect.
spliceai
BP5 Not assessed Not assessed: no individual-level phenotype or alternative causal diagnosis was provided.
BP6 Not met Not met: the variant is absent from ClinVar, so no expert-panel benign assertion exists.
clinvar
BP7 N/A Not applicable: the criterion applies to synonymous variants; this frameshift alters the protein sequence.
