Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
PVS1 (Very Strong): frameshift p.(His259ArgfsTer5) truncates upstream of the PTEN NMD cutoff at c.1121, predicting nonsense-mediated decay.
2
PM2 (Supporting): variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and v4.1, below the 0.001% allele-frequency threshold.
3
Combined, PVS1 plus PM2 matches ClinGen PTEN VCEP Rule 20, supporting a classification of Likely Pathogenic.
Final determination: PTEN VCEP v3.2 Rule20: PVS1 (Very Strong) plus one Supporting-level criterion (PM2_Supporting) combine to Likely Pathogenic.

Criterion Status Rationale Evidence used
PVS1 Met Met (Very Strong): frameshift p.(His259ArgfsTer5) truncates well before the PTEN VCEP NMD cutoff at c.1121, predicting nonsense-mediated decay.
cspec vcep_pvs1_decisiontree_pten pvs1_gene_context pvs1_variant_assessment
PS1 N/A Not applicable: PS1 applies only to missense variants, and this is a 7-bp frameshift deletion with no single amino-acid change.
cspec
PS2 Not assessed Not assessed: no parental test results or parentage confirmation were available to establish a confirmed de novo occurrence.
cspec
PS3 Not assessed Not assessed: VCEP functional-evidence rules cover only missense (Mighell assay) or splice variants, and no variant-specific functional study of this frameshift was available.
PS4 Not assessed Not assessed: no affected-case observations or case-control enrichment data for this exact variant were available.
cspec
PM1 N/A Not applicable: PM1 covers missense or in-frame indels in catalytic motifs (residues 90-94, 123-130, 166-168); this frameshift falls outside them.
cspec
PM2 Met Met (Supporting): absent from gnomAD v2.1 and v4.1, below the PTEN 0.001% allele-frequency threshold.
cspec gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 gnomad_canada
PM3 N/A Not applicable: the PTEN Expert Panel designates PM3 not applicable because PTEN hamartoma tumor syndrome is autosomal dominant.
cspec
PM4 N/A Not applicable: PM4 requires an in-frame length change or stop-loss; this deletion shifts the reading frame (p.His259ArgfsTer5).
cspec pvs1_variant_assessment
PM5 N/A Not applicable: PM5 compares missense substitutions at the same residue; this frameshift produces no single amino-acid change.
cspec
PM6 Not assessed Not assessed: no parental testing or family-history data were available to document a presumed de novo occurrence.
cspec
PP1 Not assessed Not assessed: no pedigree or affected-relative genotype data were available to evaluate co-segregation.
cspec
PP2 N/A Not applicable: PP2 applies to missense variants, and this is a frameshift deletion.
cspec
PP3 N/A Not applicable: VCEP PP3 covers only missense (REVEL) and splice variants; this frameshift is neither, and SpliceAI max delta is 0.037.
cspec spliceai
PP4 N/A Not applicable: the PTEN Expert Panel folds phenotype specificity into PS4, so PP4 is not used.
cspec
PP5 Not met Not met: the exact variant is absent from ClinVar, so no expert-panel pathogenic assertion exists to support PP5.
clinvar
BA1 Not met Not met: absent from gnomAD v2.1 and v4.1, far below the PTEN BA1 threshold of >0.056% allele frequency.
cspec gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4
BS1 Not met Not met: absent from gnomAD v2.1 and v4.1, below the PTEN BS1 frequency ranges.
cspec gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4
BS2 Not assessed Not assessed: no homozygous observations were available to evaluate presence in healthy individuals.
cspec gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 gnomad_canada
BS3 Not assessed Not assessed: VCEP BS3 rules (Mighell missense assay, splice assays) do not cover frameshifts, and no variant-specific benign functional study was available.
BS4 Not assessed Not assessed: no variant-negative affected relatives were documented, so non-segregation could not be evaluated.
cspec
BP1 N/A Not applicable: the PTEN VCEP marks BP1 not applicable, and this is a frameshift, not a missense variant.
cspec
BP2 Not assessed Not assessed: no second pathogenic PTEN variant or phase data were available to evaluate.
cspec
BP3 N/A Not applicable: the PTEN VCEP marks BP3 not applicable, and this is a frameshift, not an in-frame indel.
cspec
BP4 N/A Not applicable: VCEP BP4 covers only missense and splice variants; this frameshift deletion is neither.
cspec spliceai
BP5 Not assessed Not assessed: no data documented an alternate molecular diagnosis explaining the phenotype.
cspec
BP6 Not met Not met: the exact variant is absent from ClinVar, so no expert-panel benign assertion exists to support BP6.
clinvar
BP7 N/A Not applicable: BP7 applies only to synonymous or deep-intronic variants, and this is a coding frameshift deletion.
