Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
VUS: PM2 supporting is met because the gnomAD v4.1 allele frequency is 6.25e-7 with one allele and zero homozygotes.
2
VUS: PM2 alone does not satisfy a generic ACMG/AMP pathogenic, likely pathogenic, benign, or likely benign combination rule.
Final determination: Because only one supporting pathogenic criterion, PM2, is applied, no generic ACMG/AMP 2015 pathogenic, likely pathogenic, benign, or likely benign combination rule is satisfied; therefore the call 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 Not applicable: PVS1 requires a null variant (nonsense, frameshift, canonical splice, start-loss or stop-loss), and this is a missense variant.
pvs1_generic_framework generic_acmg_combination_rules
PS1 Not assessed Not assessed: no established pathogenic variant producing the same p.Asn145Ser amino-acid change was identified in the available evidence.
clinvar spliceai
PS2 Not assessed Not assessed: parental genotypes, confirmed maternity and paternity, disease status, and family history are not documented.
PS3 Not assessed Not assessed: no variant-specific validated functional assay or reproducible damaging result was identified for SDHB c.434A>G (p.Asn145Ser).
PS4 Not assessed Not assessed: no variant-specific affected/control counts, odds ratio or relative risk, and 95% confidence interval are available for comparison with >5.0 and 1.0.
PMID:20065170 PMID:20301715 PMID:20664475 PMID:26324357
PM1 Not assessed Not assessed: residue 145 has no supplied authoritative domain or qualifying hotspot evidence establishing a critical region without benign variation.
cspec hotspots cosmic
PM2 Met Met at supporting strength: gnomAD v4.1 AF is 6.25e-7, below the <=0.0001 PM2 threshold, with one allele and zero homozygotes.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4
PM3 N/A Not applicable: SDHB hereditary pheochromocytoma-paraganglioma is autosomal dominant, whereas PM3 is restricted to recessive disorders.
cspec PMID:20664475
PM4 N/A Not applicable: PM4 requires a protein-length change, and this is a missense variant.
pvs1_generic_framework generic_acmg_combination_rules
PM5 Not assessed Not assessed: no confirmed pathogenic alternate missense change at SDHB residue Asn145 was identified in the supplied evidence.
pm5_candidates clinvar
PM6 Not assessed Not assessed: no evidence supports an assumed de novo occurrence or provides parental testing for this variant.
PP1 Not assessed Not assessed: no affected family members, variant genotypes, or informative meioses are documented for co-segregation analysis.
PP2 Not assessed Not assessed: one rare gnomAD observation (AF 6.24608e-07) does not establish gene-wide benign-missense constraint or a common missense disease mechanism.
gnomad_v4 PMID:20664475
PP3 Not met Not met: missense REVEL score 0.584 is below the generic PP3 supporting threshold of 0.644.
revel
PP4 Not assessed Not assessed: the case lacks a documented patient phenotype or family history that is highly specific for a single-gene disease.
PMID:20664475
PP5 Not met Not met: exact-variant ClinVar records contain two laboratory uncertain-significance submissions and zero expert-panel pathogenic classifications.
clinvar
BA1 Not assessed Not assessed: gnomAD v4.1 reports AF 6.25e-7, but the required grpmax FAF for the stand-alone 5% BA1 threshold is unavailable.
gnomad_v4
BS1 Not assessed Not assessed: AF is 6.25e-7, but grpmax FAF and the prevalence, penetrance, and allelic-heterogeneity inputs needed for a BS1 threshold are unavailable.
gnomad_v4
BS2 Not assessed Not assessed: gnomAD reports zero homozygotes, but no individual-level healthy-adult observation or phenotype data are available for BS2.
gnomad_v4
BS3 Not assessed Not assessed: no variant-specific validated functional assay or reproducible benign functional result was identified for SDHB c.434A>G (p.Asn145Ser).
BS4 Not assessed Not assessed: no affected, variant-negative relatives or family phenotype data are available to demonstrate lack of segregation.
BP1 Not assessed Not assessed: SDHB loss-of-function disease context is present, but no supplied evidence shows that disease is caused primarily by truncating variants.
PMID:20664475
BP2 Not assessed Not assessed: no parental or offspring testing documents this variant in cis or trans with a pathogenic variant.
clinvar cspec
BP3 N/A Not applicable: BP3 requires an in-frame indel in a repeat region, and this is a missense variant.
pvs1_generic_framework generic_acmg_combination_rules
BP4 Not met Not met: missense REVEL score 0.584 is above the generic BP4 supporting threshold of 0.29.
revel
BP5 Not assessed Not assessed: no case evidence documents an alternate molecular basis for disease in a carrier of this variant.
BP6 Not met Not met: exact-variant ClinVar records contain two laboratory uncertain-significance submissions and no expert-panel benign classification.
clinvar
BP7 N/A Not applicable: BP7 requires a synonymous variant, and this is a missense variant.
