Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
BP4 (Supporting): SpliceAI max delta 0.024, below the 0.1 threshold - the intronic variant is not predicted to disrupt splicing.
2
Overall: VUS - under generic ACMG/AMP 2015 rules, a single supporting benign criterion does not reach Likely Benign.
Final determination: Under the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 fallback, one supporting benign criterion alone does not meet any benign, likely benign, likely pathogenic, or pathogenic combination threshold; therefore the classification is VUS.
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 Not met Not met: this intronic variant lies 17 bases upstream of the exon boundary with no predicted null consequence (SpliceAI max delta 0.024).
pvs1_gene_context pvs1_variant_assessment pvs1_generic_framework spliceai
PS1 N/A Not applicable: PS1 requires a missense change at the protein level, and this intronic variant has no amino-acid consequence (p.?).
PS2 Not assessed Not assessed: no proband phenotype, parental genotypes, or validated de novo status was available to evaluate PS2.
PS3 Not assessed Not assessed: no variant-specific functional assay was available; the SpliceAI result is computational prediction only.
PS4 Not assessed Not assessed: no case-control or cohort-enrichment evidence for this exact variant was available.
PMID:25356965 PMID:35802134
PM1 N/A Not applicable: PM1 evaluates missense variants in critical domains, and this intronic variant has no protein residue.
PM2 Not met Not met: the variant is present in gnomAD v2.1, v4.1, and gnomAD-Canada, so it is not absent from population databases.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 gnomad_canada
PM3 N/A Not applicable: PM3 is a recessive-disorder criterion, and RB1 retinoblastoma is autosomal dominant.
PMID:35802134
PM4 Not met Not met: this intronic single-nucleotide variant produces no protein-length change (p.?), unlike the in-frame indels PM4 targets.
pvs1_variant_assessment spliceai
PM5 N/A Not applicable: PM5 requires a pathogenic missense at the same amino-acid residue, and this intronic variant has none.
PM6 Not assessed Not assessed: no case report or family study established the variant as apparently de novo.
PP1 Not assessed Not assessed: no affected or unaffected relatives with informative segregation were documented.
PP2 N/A Not applicable: PP2 is a missense criterion, and this intronic variant produces no missense substitution.
PP3 Not met Not met: SpliceAI max delta 0.024 falls below the 0.2 PP3 threshold.
spliceai generic_acmg_combination_rules
PP4 Not assessed Not assessed: no proband phenotype indicating high specificity for RB1-related disease was available.
PP5 Not met Not met: ClinVar holds only non-expert single-submitter Uncertain and Likely benign assertions, with no expert-panel submission.
clinvar
BA1 Not met Not met: maximum observed allele frequency is 0.04358% (gnomAD-Canada), far below the 5% BA1 threshold.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 gnomad_canada
BS1 Not assessed Not assessed: no RB1-specific or disease-derived maximum credible allele frequency was available to test against the observed 0.04358%.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 gnomad_canada
BS2 Not assessed Not assessed: no homozygotes are reported, and population records do not confirm carriers are healthy adults.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 gnomad_canada
BS3 Not assessed Not assessed: no variant-specific functional assay demonstrating preserved RB1 function was available.
BS4 Not assessed Not assessed: no confirmed non-carrier relatives were documented for non-segregation evaluation.
BP1 N/A Not applicable: BP1 is a missense criterion, and this intronic variant has no amino-acid substitution to evaluate.
BP2 Not assessed Not assessed: no second RB1 pathogenic variant or phase information was available for the trans/cis evaluation.
PMID:35802134
BP3 Not met Not met: the variant is an intronic SNV, not an in-frame indel in a repetitive region.
pvs1_variant_assessment
BP4 Met Met (supporting): SpliceAI max delta 0.024 is below the 0.1 BP4 threshold, predicting no splice disruption.
spliceai generic_acmg_combination_rules
BP5 Not assessed Not assessed: no affected individual with this variant plus a separate explanatory molecular diagnosis was documented.
BP6 Not met Not met: ClinVar shows no expert-panel submission; the non-expert Likely benign assertion alone cannot trigger BP6.
clinvar
BP7 N/A Not applicable: BP7 covers synonymous coding variants; this intronic variant's splicing evidence was already applied as BP4.
