Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
VUS: BS3 supporting because p.L420M showed retained function in a controlled complementation assay.
2
VUS: one supporting benign criterion is insufficient for the generic Likely Benign combination rule.
3
VUS: no pathogenic or stand-alone benign combination rule is satisfied.
Final determination: Under the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 fallback, one supporting benign criterion does not satisfy Likely Benign, and no pathogenic or benign rule is satisfied, resulting in 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 previously established pathogenic Leu-to-Met comparator was documented for codon 420, and the reviewed assay classified p.L420M as functionally retained.
clinvar PMID:25820570
PS2 Not assessed Not assessed: no documented proband de novo result with confirmed maternity and paternity, disease phenotype, and absent family history.
PMID:25741868
PS3 Not met Not met: p.L420M was functionally retained, with mutation rate less than 1.7-fold above wild type in the MutY-deficient E. coli assay.
PMID:25820570
PS4 Not assessed Not assessed: four reported colorectal-cancer cases lack the controls needed to calculate OR/RR >5.0 and a 95% CI excluding 1.0.
clinvar gnomad_v4 PMID:16774938
PM1 Not assessed Not assessed: Cancer Hotspots found no significant MUTYH L420 hotspot, while no authoritative approved MUTYH domain list or qualifying domain boundary was available.
hotspots cspec
PM2 Not met Not met: gnomAD v4.1 AF is 0.000553215, above the supplied PM2 supporting threshold of 0.0001.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 PMID:25741868
PM3 Not assessed Not assessed: no affected-proband observation or parental/offspring phase evidence demonstrates c.1258C>A in trans with a pathogenic MUTYH variant.
clinvar cspec
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 different missense variant at Leu420 was confirmed as pathogenic, and the documented PM5 search found zero same-residue candidates.
pm5_candidates PMID:25820570
PM6 Not assessed Not assessed: no documented assumed de novo occurrence or parental genotype comparison is available for the proband.
PMID:25741868
PP1 Not assessed Not assessed: no multiple affected relatives with informative genotypes and phenotype concordance are documented for co-segregation.
PMID:25741868
PP2 Not assessed Not assessed: 47 MUTYH missense variants were assayed, but no validated low-benign-missense-rate metric was available to satisfy PP2.
PMID:25820570
PP3 Not met Not met: REVEL 0.45 is below the generic PP3 supporting threshold of 0.644 for this missense variant.
revel
PP4 Not assessed Not assessed: no patient phenotype or family-history details are available to establish a phenotype highly specific for a single genetic etiology.
PP5 Not met Not met: ClinVar has zero exact-variant expert-panel submissions and no qualifying reputable pathogenic report; ordinary laboratory assertions cannot trigger PP5.
clinvar
BA1 Not met Not met: the highest qualifying grpmax FAF is 0.00152537, far below the generic BA1 threshold of 0.05.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 PMID:25741868
BS1 Not met Not met: the highest qualifying grpmax FAF is 0.00152537, below the generic BS1 threshold of 0.01 and without a gene-specific calculation exceeding it.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4
BS2 Not assessed Not assessed: gnomAD reports up to two homozygotes, but does not establish healthy-adult status or full early-age penetrance required for BS2.
gnomad_v2 gnomad_v4 cspec PMID:25741868
BS3 Met Met at supporting strength: p.L420M was functionally retained, with a mutation rate less than 1.7-fold above wild type in a controlled complementation assay.
PMID:25820570
BS4 Not assessed Not assessed: no affected relatives without the variant, pedigree, or phenotype-verified non-segregation data are documented.
PMID:25741868
BP1 Not assessed Not assessed: the available study evaluated 47 MUTYH missense variants but did not establish that disease is caused primarily by truncating variants.
PMID:25820570
BP2 Not assessed Not assessed: no family or proband data establish c.1258C>A in trans with a pathogenic dominant allele or in cis with any pathogenic allele.
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: REVEL 0.45 exceeds the generic BP4 supporting threshold of 0.29 and is therefore indeterminate for this missense variant.
revel
BP5 Not assessed Not assessed: no qualifying case-level alternate molecular diagnosis or alternate pathogenic variant is documented for a carrier of this variant.
BP6 Not met Not met: ClinVar has no exact-variant expert-panel benign assertion, and its ordinary benign or likely-benign submissions are excluded from BP6.
clinvar
BP7 N/A Not applicable: BP7 requires a synonymous variant, and this is a missense variant.
