Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
BS1 (Strong): Ashkenazi Jewish allele frequency 0.5135% in gnomAD v4.1 exceeds the 0.3% BS1 benign threshold.
2
BP4 (Supporting): REVEL score 0.19 is below the <=0.290 benign computational threshold.
3
Final: BS1 (strong) plus BP4 (supporting) with no met pathogenic criterion maps to Likely Benign under generic ACMG/AMP combining rules.
Final determination: Generic ACMG/AMP 2015 fallback: one strong benign criterion (BS1) plus one supporting benign criterion (BP4), with no pathogenic evidence met, combines to Likely Benign.
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: missense substitution p.(Arg218His) does not trigger any null-variant mechanism such as nonsense-mediated decay or truncation.
pvs1_generic_framework generic_acmg_combination_rules
PS1 Not assessed Not assessed: insufficient evidence was available.
PS2 Not assessed Not assessed: no de novo occurrence or parental genotype data were available for the proband.
PMID:25741868
PS3 Not assessed Not assessed: no functional assay data on p.Arg218His polymerase or proofreading activity were available.
PS4 Not assessed Not assessed: no case-control or enrichment data for this exact variant were available.
clinvar
PM1 Not assessed Not assessed: insufficient evidence was available.
PM2 Not met Not met: allele frequency 0.5135% in Ashkenazi Jewish gnomAD v4.1 exceeds the 0.3% BS1 threshold, so the variant is not rare.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 gnomad_canada
PM3 Not assessed Not assessed: no affected individual with this variant in trans with a pathogenic POLD1 variant was observed.
generic_acmg_combination_rules PMID:25741868
PM4 N/A Not applicable: missense substitution causes no protein length change, which PM4 requires.
pvs1_generic_framework generic_acmg_combination_rules
PM5 Not assessed Not assessed: insufficient evidence was available.
PM6 Not assessed Not assessed: no de novo observation or parental testing data were available.
PMID:25741868
PP1 Not assessed Not assessed: no pedigree or co-segregation data were available.
PMID:25741868
PP2 Not assessed Not assessed: insufficient evidence was available.
PP3 Not met Not met: REVEL score 0.19 is far below the >=0.644 PP3 supporting threshold.
revel spliceai
PP4 Not assessed Not assessed: no proband phenotype or phenotype-specific testing context was provided.
clinvar
PP5 Not met Not met: the ClinVar record has no expert-panel pathogenic or likely pathogenic classification.
clinvar
BA1 Not met Not met: highest population allele frequency 0.5216% is well below the 5% BA1 stand-alone threshold.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 gnomad_canada
BS1 Met Met (strong): Ashkenazi Jewish frequency 0.5135% in gnomAD v4.1 exceeds the 0.3% BS1 threshold.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 gnomad_canada
BS2 Not assessed Not assessed: gnomAD v4.1 homozygotes lack phenotype and penetrance data needed for this cancer-predisposition context.
gnomad_v4
BS3 Not assessed Not assessed: no functional assay data demonstrating normal activity for p.Arg218His were available.
BS4 Not assessed Not assessed: no family genotype-phenotype or non-segregation data were available.
PMID:25741868
BP1 Not assessed Not assessed: insufficient evidence was available.
BP2 Not assessed Not assessed: no observation of this variant with a pathogenic POLD1 variant in cis or trans was available.
generic_acmg_combination_rules PMID:25741868
BP3 N/A Not applicable: applies only to in-frame indels in repetitive regions; this is a missense substitution.
pvs1_generic_framework generic_acmg_combination_rules
BP4 Met Met (supporting): REVEL score 0.19 is below the <=0.290 BP4 supporting threshold.
revel spliceai
BP5 Not assessed Not assessed: no evidence that the phenotype is explained by an alternative molecular diagnosis was available.
clinvar
BP6 Not met Not met: the ClinVar record has no expert-panel benign or likely benign classification.
clinvar
BP7 N/A Not applicable: applies only to synonymous variants; this is a missense substitution.
