Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
Benign: BS1 (strong) is met because the gnomAD v2.1 genome allele frequency is 0.0126578.
2
Benign: BS2 (strong) is met because gnomAD reports 27 v2.1 and 86 v4.1 homozygotes.
3
Benign: BP4 (supporting) is met because SpliceAI maximum delta is 0.002.
Final determination: Generic ACMG/AMP 2015 fallback rules classify a variant as Benign when at least two strong benign criteria are met; BS1 strong and BS2 strong satisfy this rule.
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: NM_002691.4:c.2251-23A>G is intronic at −23 and is neither a nonsense, frameshift, nor canonical ±1/2 splice variant.
pvs1_generic_framework pvs1_variant_assessment spliceai
PS1 N/A Not applicable: the intronic variant has protein consequence p.?, so no amino-acid change exists for same-codon comparison.
PS2 Not assessed Not assessed: no proband genotype, parental testing, confirmed parentage, or documented de novo event is available for this variant.
PS3 Not assessed Not assessed: no validated RNA, protein, or minigene assay is documented; SpliceAI maximum delta 0.002 is computational, not functional evidence.
spliceai PMID:25741868
PS4 Not assessed Not assessed: no affected-case series, control comparison, or case-control enrichment metric is available for this exact intronic POLD1 variant.
PM1 N/A Not applicable: the intronic variant has no protein residue to compare with a critical functional domain, and no POLD1-specific domain table is available.
PM2 Not met Not met: gnomAD v4.1 overall allele frequency is 0.00231565, exceeding the generic PM2 cutoff of 0.0001.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 PMID:25741868
PM3 Not assessed Not assessed: no affected proband, second pathogenic allele, or phase result documents this variant in trans for a recessive disorder.
PM4 N/A Not applicable: the variant has no predicted protein-length change, with protein consequence NP_002682.2:p.?.
pvs1_variant_assessment PMID:25741868
PM5 N/A Not applicable: protein consequence p.? provides no defined residue for comparison with pathogenic missense variants at the same position.
PM6 Not assessed Not assessed: no clinical report supports a presumed de novo occurrence without parental testing for this variant.
PP1 Not assessed Not assessed: no affected relatives, unaffected tested carriers, informative meioses, or genotype-phenotype segregation data are documented.
PP2 N/A Not applicable: PP2 concerns missense variation, whereas this variant is intronic and has protein consequence p.?.
PP3 Not met Not met: SpliceAI maximum delta 0.002 is below the >=0.2 PP3 supporting threshold.
spliceai
PP4 Not assessed Not assessed: no patient phenotype or disease-specific clinical features are provided to evaluate specificity for a POLD1-associated disorder.
PP5 Not met Not met: ClinVar variation 676636 has zero expert-panel submissions and only exact-variant laboratory classifications of Benign or Likely benign.
clinvar
BA1 Not met Not met: the highest observed allele frequency is 0.0471935 in gnomAD v2.1 AFR_XX, below the generic BA1 threshold of 0.05.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 PMID:25741868
BS1 Met Met at strong: gnomAD v2.1 genome allele frequency is 0.0126578, exceeding the generic BS1 threshold of 0.01.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 PMID:25741868
BS2 Met Met at strong: gnomAD v4.1 reports 86 homozygotes, although the all-comers population dataset does not directly verify healthy-adult status.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 PMID:25741868
BS3 Not assessed Not assessed: no validated benign-function assay is documented; SpliceAI maximum delta 0.002 cannot establish normal POLD1 function.
spliceai PMID:25741868
BS4 Not assessed Not assessed: no informative affected non-carrier or unaffected carrier is documented in a family tested for this variant.
BP1 N/A Not applicable: BP1 concerns missense variants, but this intronic variant has no defined amino-acid consequence and is reported as p.?.
BP2 Not assessed Not assessed: no phase-resolved observation establishes this variant in trans or cis with a pathogenic allele under the generic BP2 rule.
BP3 N/A Not applicable: this is a single-nucleotide intronic substitution, not an in-frame deletion or insertion in a repetitive region.
pvs1_variant_assessment PMID:25741868
BP4 Met Met at supporting strength: SpliceAI maximum delta 0.002 meets the <=0.1 BP4 supporting threshold.
spliceai
BP5 Not assessed Not assessed: no patient phenotype or pathogenic variant in another gene is documented to provide an alternative explanation.
BP6 Not met Not met: ClinVar variation 676636 has zero expert-panel submissions, so its exact-variant Benign and Likely benign laboratory labels do not qualify for BP6.
clinvar
BP7 N/A Not applicable: the variant is intronic, whereas BP7 applies only to synonymous variants.
