Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
Pathogenic: PS3 strong is supported by non-functional Kato results and loss-of-function results in three additional assays.
2
Pathogenic: PM1 moderate is supported by 741 reported somatic occurrences of TP53 Y220C.
3
Pathogenic: PM2 supporting is supported by gnomAD allele frequencies below the TP53 VCEP thresholds.
4
Pathogenic: PP3 moderate is assigned by the VCEP for aGVGD C65 and BayesDel 0.562537.
5
Pathogenic: PP5 supporting reflects the ClinGen TP53 Expert Panel Pathogenic classification.
Final determination: Under the ClinGen TP53 Expert Panel Version 2.4 point-based framework, PS3 strong (+4), PM1 moderate (+2), PM2 supporting (+1), PP3 moderate (+2), and PP5 supporting (+1) total 10 points, which maps to Pathogenic.
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: c.659A>G produces the missense substitution p.Tyr220Cys in exon 6, not a VCEP-specified null or splice variant.
cspec pvs1_variant_assessment vcep_pvs1_flowchart vcep_pvs1_splicing_worksheet
PS1 Not met Not met: zero alternate missense comparator variants at TP53 residue 220 were identified for the required same-amino-acid comparison.
cspec pm5_candidates clinvar
PS2 Not assessed Not assessed: no documented confirmed maternity, paternity, qualifying proband cancer, or de novo point total is available for the PS2 thresholds.
cspec clinvar vcep_table_of_lfs_cancers_and_points_for_ps2_and_pp1_code_application
PS3 Met Met, strong: Y220C is non-functional in Kato and loss-of-function in all three available additional eligible assays, matching the VCEP PS3 strong rule.
cspec vcep_flowchart_for_application_of_functional_rule_codes vcep_functional_worksheet PMID:12826609
PS4 Not assessed Not assessed: no proband phenotype or case-control counts are available to assign the VCEP's PS4 points or calculate enrichment for p.Tyr220Cys.
cspec vcep_ps4_points_table PMID:17508274
PM1 Met Met at Moderate: TP53 Y220C has 741 reported somatic occurrences, exceeding the VCEP’s cancerhotspots.org threshold of at least 10.
cspec hotspots cosmic
PM2 Met Met at supporting: gnomAD v4.1 total AF is 4.95676e-06 and highest multi-allele ancestry AF is 5.93246e-06, both below VCEP thresholds.
cspec gnomad_v4
PM3 N/A Not applicable: the TP53 VCEP Version 2.4 CSPEC explicitly designates PM3 as Not Applicable.
cspec
PM4 N/A Not applicable: p.Tyr220Cys is a missense substitution, not an in-frame insertion/deletion or stop-loss protein-length change.
cspec pvs1_variant_assessment
PM5 Not met Not met: zero different missense variants at residue 220 were found for the VCEP’s required PM5 comparison.
cspec pm5_candidates
PM6 N/A Not applicable: the TP53 VCEP explicitly dropped PM6 and requires de novo evidence to be evaluated under PS2.
cspec
PP1 Not assessed Not assessed: segregation is described in at least three families, but no exact qualifying meiosis count is available for the VCEP's 3-4, 5-6, or ≥7 thresholds.
cspec clinvar vcep_table_of_lfs_cancers_and_points_for_ps2_and_pp1_code_application
PP2 N/A Not applicable: the TP53 VCEP explicitly marks PP2 as not applicable.
cspec
PP3 Met Met, moderate: the VCEP table assigns PP3_moderate to c.659A>G with aGVGD C65 and BayesDel 0.562537, while SpliceAI max delta is 0.135.
cspec vcep_flowchart_for_application_of_pp3_2c_bp4_2c_and_bp7 vcep_pp3_bp4_codes bayesdel spliceai
PP4 Not assessed Not assessed: no qualifying TP53 p.Tyr220Cys multigene-panel VAF observation is available for the VCEP's 5-35% PP4 rule.
cspec
PP5 Met Not applicable: the TP53 VCEP explicitly prohibits use of PP5.
cspec clinvar
BA1 Not met Not met: the highest gnomAD v4.1 ancestry frequency is 1.56162e-05, far below the VCEP BA1 threshold of 0.001.
cspec gnomad_v4
BS1 Not met Not met: gnomAD v4.1 joint grpmax FAF is 2.47e-06, below the VCEP BS1 lower threshold of 0.0003.
cspec gnomad_v4
BS2 Not assessed Not assessed: no qualifying single-source count of unrelated cancer-free females aged at least 60 years is available.
cspec gnomad_v4
BS3 Not met Not met: Y220C is non-functional in Kato and loss-of-function in three additional available assays, rather than functional with no majority loss-of-function evidence.
cspec vcep_flowchart_for_application_of_functional_rule_codes vcep_functional_worksheet PMID:12826609
BS4 Not assessed Not assessed: no affected family member with a documented negative variant test is available to demonstrate lack of segregation.
cspec
BP1 N/A Not applicable: the TP53 VCEP explicitly excludes BP1 because truncating variants explain only part of TP53 disease causation.
cspec
BP2 N/A Not applicable: the TP53 VCEP Version 2.4 CSPEC explicitly designates BP2 as Not Applicable.
cspec
BP3 N/A Not applicable: c.659A>G is a missense substitution, not an in-frame deletion or insertion in a repetitive region without known function.
cspec pvs1_variant_assessment
BP4 Not met Not met: the VCEP excludes aGVGD Class C65 from missense BP4, and this variant is Class C65 with BayesDel 0.562537 despite SpliceAI max delta 0.135.
cspec vcep_flowchart_for_application_of_pp3_2c_bp4_2c_and_bp7 vcep_pp3_bp4_codes bayesdel spliceai
BP5 N/A Not applicable: the TP53 VCEP marks BP5 as not applicable and provides no BP5 rule.
cspec
BP6 N/A Not applicable: the TP53 VCEP explicitly prohibits use of BP6.
cspec
BP7 N/A Not applicable: BP7 covers synonymous or intronic variants, whereas c.659A>G is a missense change encoding p.Tyr220Cys.
