BP7 (supporting): the synonymous p.(Ala300=) change has SpliceAI max delta 0.004, far below the 0.2 splice-impact cutoff, indicating no effect on splicing.
Final determination:
Under the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 combining rules, a single supporting benign criterion (BP7) with no pathogenic criteria met satisfies neither the Likely Benign (1 strong + 1 supporting, or 2 supporting) nor any Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic combination, giving Variant of Uncertain Significance.

All criteria require review: For research and educational purposes only.
| Criterion | Status | Rationale | Evidence used |
|---|---|---|---|
| PVS1 | N/A | PVS1 (ClinGen SVI PVS1 recommendations, PMC6185798, pvs1_generic_framework) applies only to null variant classes — nonsense, frameshift, canonical ±1/2 splice-consensus, translation-initiation-codon loss, and stop-loss variants — each expected to trigger nonsense-mediated decay or otherwise abolish normal protein function. NM_002528.7:c.900C>T in NTHL1 is a synonymous (silent) substitution predicted to produce NP_002519.2:p.(Ala300=). As a result, no null-variant mechanism (nonsense-mediated decay, truncation, or canonical splice disruption) is triggered by this variant class, so PVS1's structural prerequisite is not met by this variant class. This determination was made deterministically from the variant's consequence class, prior to LLM adjudication, because no structured VCEP criteria-combination framework governs this case (framework_complete=false); the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 fallback applies. |

| PS1 | N/A | PS1 (Richards et al. 2015, PMID:25741868) requires the same amino acid change as a previously established pathogenic variant, evaluated regardless of the underlying nucleotide change. NM_002528.7:c.900C>T in NTHL1 is a synonymous (silent) substitution predicted to produce NP_002519.2:p.(Ala300=). As a result, no altered amino acid exists at this position to compare against any previously established pathogenic missense variant, so PS1's structural prerequisite is not met by this variant class. This determination was made deterministically from the variant's consequence class, prior to LLM adjudication, because no structured VCEP criteria-combination framework governs this case (framework_complete=false); the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 fallback applies. |

| PM1 | N/A | PM1 (Richards et al. 2015, PMID:25741868) applies to a missense variant located in a mutational hot spot and/or a critical, well-established functional domain without benign variation. NM_002528.7:c.900C>T in NTHL1 is a synonymous (silent) substitution predicted to produce NP_002519.2:p.(Ala300=). As a result, no altered residue exists to evaluate for mutational hot-spot or critical-domain membership, so PM1's structural prerequisite is not met by this variant class. This determination was made deterministically from the variant's consequence class, prior to LLM adjudication, because no structured VCEP criteria-combination framework governs this case (framework_complete=false); the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 fallback applies. |

| PM4 | N/A | PM4 (Richards et al. 2015, PMID:25741868) applies to protein length changes: in-frame insertions/deletions in a non-repetitive region, or stop-loss variants that extend the protein past the reference stop codon. NM_002528.7:c.900C>T in NTHL1 is a synonymous (silent) substitution predicted to produce NP_002519.2:p.(Ala300=). As a result, no change in protein length occurs, so there is nothing for this criterion to evaluate, so PM4's structural prerequisite is not met by this variant class. This determination was made deterministically from the variant's consequence class, prior to LLM adjudication, because no structured VCEP criteria-combination framework governs this case (framework_complete=false); the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 fallback applies. |

| PM5 | N/A | PM5 (Richards et al. 2015, PMID:25741868) requires a novel missense change at an amino acid residue where a different missense change has previously been determined to be pathogenic. NM_002528.7:c.900C>T in NTHL1 is a synonymous (silent) substitution predicted to produce NP_002519.2:p.(Ala300=). As a result, no missense change exists at this residue to compare against a different pathogenic missense change at the same position, so PM5's structural prerequisite is not met by this variant class. This determination was made deterministically from the variant's consequence class, prior to LLM adjudication, because no structured VCEP criteria-combination framework governs this case (framework_complete=false); the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 fallback applies. |

| PP2 | N/A | PP2 (Richards et al. 2015, PMID:25741868) applies to a missense variant in a gene with a low rate of benign missense variation, where missense variants are a common mechanism of disease. NM_002528.7:c.900C>T in NTHL1 is a synonymous (silent) substitution predicted to produce NP_002519.2:p.(Ala300=). As a result, the gene's missense-constraint properties are irrelevant because no missense change is present to evaluate, so PP2's structural prerequisite is not met by this variant class. This determination was made deterministically from the variant's consequence class, prior to LLM adjudication, because no structured VCEP criteria-combination framework governs this case (framework_complete=false); the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 fallback applies. |

| BP1 | N/A | BP1 (Richards et al. 2015, PMID:25741868) applies to a missense variant in a gene for which primarily truncating variants are known to cause disease. NM_002528.7:c.900C>T in NTHL1 is a synonymous (silent) substitution predicted to produce NP_002519.2:p.(Ala300=). As a result, the gene's truncating-variant mechanism is irrelevant because no missense change is present to evaluate, so BP1's structural prerequisite is not met by this variant class. This determination was made deterministically from the variant's consequence class, prior to LLM adjudication, because no structured VCEP criteria-combination framework governs this case (framework_complete=false); the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 fallback applies. |

NM_002528.7:c.900C>T in NTHL1 is a synonymous (silent) substitution predicted to produce NP_002519.2:p.(Ala300=). As a result, the variant does not alter protein length within a repeat region, so there is nothing for this criterion to evaluate, so BP3's structural prerequisite is not met by this variant class.
