Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
PM2 (Supporting): variant seen once in 1,609,556 gnomAD v4.1 alleles (AF 6.2e-07), far below the 0.1% rarity threshold.
2
BP4 (Supporting): SpliceAI max delta 0.007, well below the <0.1 threshold, indicating no predicted splicing impact.
3
Combination of one supporting pathogenic (PM2) and one supporting benign (BP4) criterion maps to VUS under generic ACMG/AMP 2015 rules.
Final determination:
Generic ACMG/AMP 2015 fallback rules do not meet benign, likely benign, likely pathogenic, or pathogenic combination thresholds, so the variant is classified as Variant of Uncertain Significance.
Criteria assessment
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: a 3' UTR substitution that leaves the stop codon and reading frame intact, with no predicted splicing effect (SpliceAI max delta 0.007). |
pvs1_variant_assessment
pvs1_gene_context
spliceai
|
| PS1 | N/A | Not applicable: this variant produces no amino acid change (p.?), and PS1 requires an established pathogenic change at the same position. |
|
| PS2 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no de novo observation or parental testing results were available to establish the variant arose spontaneously. |
|
| PS3 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no validated functional assay data (e.g., splicing reporter or mRNA stability studies) were available for this variant. |
|
| PS4 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no affected case series or case-control enrichment data were available. |
|
| PM1 | N/A | Not applicable: the variant lies in the 3' UTR, not in a protein domain or mutational hotspot. |
|
| PM2 | Met | Met (supporting): absent from gnomAD v2.1 and seen once in 1,609,556 gnomAD v4.1 alleles (AF ~6.2e-07), far below the 0.1% rarity threshold. |
gnomad_v4
gnomad_v2
gnomad_canada
|
| PM3 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no data showed the variant in trans with a pathogenic allele, so recessive-disease phase could not be evaluated. |
|
| PM4 | N/A | Not applicable: the 3' UTR substitution does not alter the stop codon or protein length (p.?). |
pvs1_variant_assessment
|
| PM5 | N/A | Not applicable: no amino acid substitution occurs, so there is no residue change to compare with known pathogenic missense variants. |
|
| PM6 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no unconfirmed de novo observation or parental genotypes were documented. |
|
| PP1 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no familial segregation or co-segregation data were available. |
|
| PP2 | N/A | Not applicable: PP2 concerns missense variants, and this is a 3' UTR substitution with no amino acid change. |
|
| PP3 | Not met | Not met: SpliceAI predicts no splicing impact (max delta 0.007) versus the >0.2 threshold required for PP3. |

generic_acmg_combination_rules
|
| PP4 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no proband phenotype or phenotype-specific testing context was supplied. |
|
| PP5 | Not met | Not met: no ClinVar expert-panel pathogenic assertion exists for this exact variant. |
clinvar
|
| BA1 | Not met | Not met: allele frequency 6.2e-07 (1/1,609,556) is far below the population frequency expected for a benign variant. |

|
| BS1 | Not met | Not met: the observed allele frequency (6.2e-07) shows no excess incompatible with disease causality. |

|
| BS2 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no evidence showed the single gnomAD carrier is a phenotyped healthy adult. |
gnomad_v4
|
| BS3 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no functional assay data demonstrating normal activity were available. |
|
| BS4 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no tested unaffected relatives or non-segregation data were documented. |
|
| BP1 | N/A | Not applicable: BP1 addresses missense variants, and this variant causes no amino acid change. |
|
| BP2 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no family observations, second pathogenic variant, or phase information were available. |
|
| BP3 | N/A | Not applicable: BP3 concerns in-frame indels in repetitive regions, and this is a single-nucleotide 3' UTR substitution. |
pvs1_variant_assessment
|
| BP4 | Met | Met (supporting): SpliceAI max delta 0.007, well below the <0.1 threshold, indicating no predicted splicing impact. |

|
| BP5 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no alternate molecular diagnosis or phenotype data were available to establish another cause. |
|
| BP6 | Not met | Not met: no ClinVar expert-panel benign or likely benign assertion exists for this exact variant. |

|
| BP7 | N/A | Not applicable: BP7 addresses synonymous coding variants, and this is a 3' UTR substitution. |
