Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
PM2 (Supporting): absent from gnomAD v4.1 exomes (AF 0), below the <=1/300,000 VCEP frequency threshold.
2
BP1 (Supporting): the PALB2 VCEP applies BP1 to all missense variants given the low rate of pathogenic missense changes in PALB2.
3
Overall: VUS (Uncertain Significance - Conflicting Evidence), per Rule 31 combining PM2 (Pathogenic.Supporting) with BP1 (Benign.Supporting).
Final determination: Under the ClinGen HBOPC PALB2 VCEP v1.2 combination rules, the presence of at least one pathogenic-supporting criterion (PM2 supporting) together with at least one benign-supporting criterion (BP1 supporting) satisfies Rule31 (Benign.Supporting >=1 AND Pathogenic.Supporting >=1), which maps to Uncertain Significance - Conflicting Evidence (VUS); no higher-evidence pathogenic or benign rule is satisfied.
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: this is a missense substitution (p.(Gly982Val)) with no predicted splice effect (SpliceAI max delta 0.003), so no null-variant consequence exists.
cspec pvs1_variant_assessment pvs1_gene_context pvs1_generic_framework spliceai
PS1 N/A Not applicable: the PALB2 VCEP restricts PS1 to splicing variants, and this missense change (p.(Gly982Val), SpliceAI max delta 0.003) triggers no splicing scenario.
cspec spliceai clinvar
PS2 N/A Not applicable: the PALB2 VCEP disallows PS2 for both AD and AR disease, and no de novo or parental-testing data exist.
cspec
PS3 N/A Not applicable: the PALB2 VCEP defines no PS3 rule, and no functional studies of p.(Gly982Val) are available.
cspec oncokb
PS4 Not met Not met: PS4 requires a case-control study (p <= 0.05, OR >= 3), and no case-control or enrichment data exist for this variant.
cspec
PM1 N/A Not applicable: the PALB2 VCEP disallows PM1 for missense variants, and p.(Gly982Val) is not in a cancer hotspot.
cspec
PM2 Met Met (Supporting): absent from gnomAD v4.1 exomes (AF 0), satisfying the VCEP frequency threshold of <=1/300,000.
cspec gnomad_v4 gnomad_v2 gnomad_canada
PM3 Not assessed Not assessed: no proband, family, or phase data were available to determine whether the variant occurs in trans with a pathogenic PALB2 allele.
cspec clinvar
PM4 N/A Not applicable: PM4 covers in-frame indels or stop-loss variants, and this missense change preserves the reading frame and protein length.
cspec pvs1_variant_assessment spliceai
PM5 N/A Not applicable: the PALB2 VCEP restricts PM5 to truncating variants upstream of p.Tyr1183, not missense changes.
cspec pm5_candidates
PM6 N/A Not applicable: the PALB2 VCEP disallows PM6 for both AD and AR disease, as de novo occurrences are not yet informative.
cspec
PP1 Not assessed Not assessed: no family or segregation data were available to compute the required LOD >= 0.3 or Bayes factor >= 2:1.
cspec clinvar
PP2 N/A Not applicable: the PALB2 VCEP disallows PP2, as missense is not yet confirmed as a disease mechanism for PALB2.
cspec
PP3 Not met Not met: splice-based PP3 requires SpliceAI >= 0.2, and the max delta is 0.003; the VCEP prohibits missense predictors.
cspec spliceai revel bayesdel
PP4 N/A Not applicable: the PALB2 VCEP declares PP4 not applicable, so phenotype specificity is not used as a criterion.
cspec
PP5 N/A Not applicable: the PALB2 VCEP disallows PP5, and the variant is absent from ClinVar so no expert-panel classification exists.
cspec clinvar
BA1 Not met Not met: BA1 requires gnomAD filtering AF > 0.1%, and the variant is absent (AF 0).
cspec gnomad_v4 gnomad_v2 gnomad_canada
BS1 Not met Not met: BS1 requires gnomAD filtering AF > 0.01%, and the variant is absent (AF 0).
cspec gnomad_v4 gnomad_v2 gnomad_canada
BS2 Not met Not met: no observations of this variant in individuals inconsistent with the expected phenotype exist; it is absent from gnomAD and ClinVar.
cspec gnomad_v4 gnomad_v2 gnomad_canada clinvar
BS3 N/A Not applicable: the PALB2 VCEP defines no BS3 rule, and no functional assay evidence exists for this variant.
cspec oncokb
BS4 Not assessed Not assessed: no non-segregation data were available to compute the required LOD <= -0.32 or LR <= 0.48.
cspec clinvar
BP1 Met Met (Supporting): the PALB2 VCEP applies BP1 to all missense variants, including p.(Gly982Val), given the low rate of pathogenic missense changes.
cspec
BP2 N/A Not applicable: the PALB2 VCEP marks BP2 not applicable, so it is not used in this framework.
cspec
BP3 N/A Not applicable: BP3 covers in-frame indels in non-functional repeat regions, and this variant is a missense substitution.
cspec pvs1_variant_assessment spliceai
BP4 N/A Not applicable: the PALB2 VCEP forbids BP4 for missense variants despite SpliceAI max delta 0.003 and REVEL 0.158.
cspec spliceai revel bayesdel
BP5 N/A Not applicable: the PALB2 VCEP declares BP5 not applicable, so an alternate-molecular-basis rule is not used.
cspec
BP6 N/A Not applicable: the PALB2 VCEP disallows BP6, and the variant is absent from ClinVar so no expert-panel benign classification exists.
cspec clinvar
BP7 N/A Not applicable: BP7 applies to synonymous and deep intronic variants, and this is a missense change in exon 9.
