Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
BP4 supporting: REVEL 0.099 is below the benign computational threshold.
2
VUS: BP4 alone is insufficient for the generic ACMG/AMP Likely Benign or Benign thresholds.
Final determination:
Under the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 fallback, one supporting benign criterion does not meet the two-supporting-criteria threshold for Likely Benign, so the result 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 | 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_002691.4:c.353C>T in POLD1 is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_002682.2:p.(Ser118Phe). 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 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no validated pathogenic POLD1 substitution producing the same p.Ser118Phe amino-acid change was identified. |
clinvar
|
| PS2 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no documented affected proband with confirmed absence of the variant in both tested biological parents. |
|
| PS3 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no variant-specific validated functional assay, assay controls, or quantitative biological readout was reported for POLD1 p.Ser118Phe. |
|
| PS4 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no variant-specific case-control enrichment, odds ratio, likelihood ratio, or affected-versus-control prevalence data are available. |
|
| PM1 | Not met | Not met: POLD1 S118 is not in a documented hotspot, and no approved critical-domain evidence places residue 118 in a PM1 region. |
oncokb
|
| PM2 | Not met | Not met: aggregate AF is below 0.0001, but ancestry-specific frequencies reach 0.000696185 in gnomAD v2.1 and exceed the PM2 threshold. |

|
| PM3 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no affected-proband biallelic observation or verified pathogenic variant in trans is documented for this POLD1 variant. |
|
| 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_002691.4:c.353C>T in POLD1 is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_002682.2:p.(Ser118Phe). 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. |

|
| PP1 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no informative affected-relative or unaffected-relative genotypes and no segregation meioses are documented. |
|
| PP2 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no gene-specific POLD1 evidence establishes both a dominant missense mechanism and a low benign-missense rate for PP2. |

| BS3 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no variant-specific validated assay demonstrated preserved POLD1 function with appropriate controls or a quantitative benign-effect result. |
|
| BS4 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no tested unaffected relatives with documented non-segregation and reliable phenotype information are reported. |
|
| BP1 | Not assessed | Not assessed: POLD1 is missense here, but predominant truncating-variant disease mechanism has not been established for BP1. |
|
| BP2 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no documented co-occurrence or phase result shows this variant with another pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant. |
|
| BP3 | N/A | BP3 (Richards et al. 2015, PMID:25741868) applies to in-frame insertions/deletions located in a repetitive region without a known function. NM_002691.4:c.353C>T in POLD1 is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_002682.2:p.(Ser118Phe). 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. 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. |

| BP4 | Met | Met at supporting: REVEL 0.099 is below the BP4 supporting threshold of <=0.29 for missense variants. |
revel
|
| BP5 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no alternative molecular diagnosis or evidence that another variant explains the patient's phenotype is documented. |
|
| BP6 | Not met | Not met: ClinVar has zero expert-panel submissions, so its ordinary Likely benign laboratory assertions cannot trigger BP6. |
clinvar

| BP7 | N/A | BP7 (Richards et al. 2015, PMID:25741868) is defined for a synonymous (silent) variant for which splicing prediction algorithms predict no impact to the splice consensus sequence and the nucleotide is not highly conserved. NM_002691.4:c.353C>T in POLD1 is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_002682.2:p.(Ser118Phe). As a result, the encoded protein sequence is altered, so the criterion's silent-variant premise does not hold regardless of any splicing prediction, so BP7'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. |
