Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
PS3 Moderate: p.Asn308Asp shows increased phosphatase activity and prolonged ERK2 activation in two approved assay types.
2
PS4 Moderate: the variant occurred in multiple unrelated Noonan syndrome patients and was absent from more than 200 controls in one report.
3
PP3 Supporting: REVEL 0.838 exceeds the PTPN11 VCEP missense threshold of 0.7.
4
PP5 Supporting: recorded in the adjudicated criteria, but it does not satisfy an additional VCEP combination rule.
Final determination:
No pathogenic or benign combination rule in the ClinGen RASopathy Expert Panel PTPN11 Version 2.3 framework is satisfied by PS3 moderate, PS4 moderate, PP3 supporting, and PP5 supporting; therefore the call is VUS.
Criteria assessment
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: the VCEP explicitly excludes PVS1 for the RASopathy spectrum, and c.922A>G is a missense p.Asn308Asp substitution. |
cspec
pvs1_variant_assessment
|
| PS1 | Not met | Not met: zero alternate-nucleotide variants producing the same pathogenic p.Asn308Asp amino-acid change were identified. |
pm5_candidates
|
| PS2 | Not assessed | Not assessed: available reports do not verify parental testing or provide auditable de novo evidence sufficient to assign the VCEP's 1-, 2-, or 4-point PS2 levels. |
cspec
PMID:11704759
|
| PS3 | Met | Met at Moderate: p.N308D shows increased phosphatase activity and prolonged ERK2 activation in two different VCEP-approved assay types. |

PMID:14974085
PMID:15834506
|
| PS4 | Met | Met at Moderate: the variant occurred in multiple unrelated Noonan syndrome patients and was absent from more than 200 controls, satisfying the VCEP rare-variant pathway. |

PMID:11992261
PMID:12634870

|
| PM1 | Not met | Not met: residue 308 is outside every VCEP-approved directly interacting N-SH2/PTP PM1 region, whose highest listed endpoint is 284. |
cspec
|
| PM2 | Not met | Not met: the variant is present in gnomAD v2.1 at 3/251440 alleles and gnomAD v4.1 at 12/1612192 alleles, contrary to the VCEP absence requirement. |
cspec

gnomad_v4
|
| PM3 | N/A | Not applicable: the PTPN11 VCEP explicitly designates PM3 as not applicable. |
cspec
|
| PM4 | N/A | Not applicable: PM4 requires an in-frame indel or stop-loss protein length change, whereas c.922A>G produces missense p.Asn308Asp. |
cspec
pvs1_variant_assessment
|
| PM5 | Not met | Not met: zero different likely pathogenic residue changes at codon 308 were identified, below the VCEP minimum of one for Moderate PM5. |
pm5_candidates
|
| PM6 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no verified de novo occurrence without confirmed parental testing is available to assign the VCEP's 0.5-, 1-, or 2-point PM6 levels. |
cspec
|
| PP1 | Not assessed | Not assessed: cosegregation is reported, but the number of informative meioses needed for the VCEP's 3-, 5-, or 7-meiosis thresholds is not documented. |
cspec
PMID:11992261
|
| PP2 | Not assessed | Not assessed: the VCEP requires a PTPN11 missense z score >3.09, but no missense z score is available. |
cspec
|
| PP3 | Met | Met: REVEL 0.838 meets the PTPN11 VCEP PP3 missense threshold of ≥0.7. |
cspec
revel
|
| PP4 | N/A | Not applicable: the PTPN11 VCEP explicitly marks PP4 as not applicable and directs phenotype evidence to PS4. |
cspec
|
| PP5 | Met | Not applicable: the PTPN11 VCEP prohibits use of PP5, regardless of published pathogenic classifications. |
cspec

|
| BS2 | Not assessed | Not assessed: gnomAD shows zero homozygotes, but the VCEP provides only point assignments and no available evidence establishes the required BS2 observation. |

|
| BS3 | N/A | Not applicable: the PTPN11 VCEP Version 2.3 explicitly marks BS3 as not applicable. |
cspec

|
| BS4 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no informative non-segregating meiosis or unaffected tested relative carrying the variant is documented for the VCEP's one-meiosis BS4 rule. |

PMID:11992261
|
| BP1 | N/A | Not applicable: BP1 is restricted to specified truncating variants, whereas this variant is the missense change p.Asn308Asp. |
cspec
|
| BP2 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no documented cis/trans second pathogenic variant or BP2 point assignment is available for this variant. |
cspec
PMID:11704759

| BP3 | N/A | Not applicable: BP3 is limited to in-frame indels in benign repetitive regions, while c.922A>G is a missense p.Asn308Asp substitution. |

revel
|
| BP5 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no alternative causative variant or BP5 point value is documented, so the VCEP's ≥ (-1), ≥ (-2), or ≥ (-4) thresholds cannot be tested. |
