Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
PM1 (Moderate): Gly295 lies in the exon-6 glycine-rich C-terminal domain, an established mutational hotspot for TARDBP-related ALS/FTLD.
2
PM2 (Moderate): the variant is extremely rare - 2 of 1,613,954 gnomAD v4.1 alleles (AF 1.24e-06), below the 0.1% population threshold.
3
PP2 (Supporting): missense variants in the exon-6 glycine-rich domain are the established dominant disease mechanism for TARDBP.
4
Overall classification: VUS - PM1 and PM2 (moderate) plus PP2 (supporting) satisfy no ACMG/AMP pathogenic or benign combining rule.
Final determination:
Generic ACMG/AMP 2015 fallback: 2 PM + 1 PP does not meet any combination threshold, so classified as VUS.
Criteria assessment

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: this is a missense substitution, not a null variant class expected to trigger nonsense-mediated decay or abolish protein function. |

|
| PS1 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no alternate nucleotide change producing the identical p.Gly295Ser amino acid substitution has been reported. |
|
| PS2 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no parental testing confirms a de novo origin of p.Gly295Ser. |
PMID:19236453
PMID:21651514
|
| PS3 | Not assessed | Not assessed: two functional studies suggest abnormal effects, but neither used a validated assay with pathogenic/benign controls. |
PMID:28335005
PMID:25090004
|
| PS4 | Not assessed | Not assessed: two sporadic ALS observations lack the case-control comparison needed for a statistically significant enrichment analysis. |
PMID:19236453
PMID:21651514
|
| PM1 | Met | Met (Moderate): Gly295 lies in the exon-6 glycine-rich C-terminal domain, an established mutational hotspot for TARDBP-related ALS/FTLD. |
PMID:19236453
PMID:21651514
PMID:20031275
PMID:25090004
|
| PM2 | Met | Met (Moderate): extremely rare in gnomAD v4.1 at 2 of 1,613,954 alleles (AF 1.24e-06), below the 0.1% threshold. |

|
| PM3 | N/A | Not applicable: PM3 requires a recessive mechanism, but TARDBP-related ALS/FTD is autosomal dominant. |
clinvar
PMID:19236453
PMID:21651514
|
| PM4 | N/A | Not applicable: the missense substitution does not alter protein length, which PM4 requires. |

|
| PM5 | Not assessed | Not assessed: p.Gly295Arg, reported at the same residue, is not established as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic. |
|
| PM6 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no evidence establishes that p.Gly295Ser arose de novo. |
PMID:19236453
PMID:21651514
|
| PP1 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no affected relatives carrying the variant were reported, so cosegregation cannot be evaluated. |
PMID:19236453
PMID:21651514
|
| PP2 | Met | Met (Supporting): missense variants in the exon-6 glycine-rich domain are the established dominant disease mechanism for TARDBP. |
