About LRRK2

LRRK2 encodes a protein involved in cell signaling and cellular maintenance, with enzyme domains that help regulate protein activity and interactions. Changes in this gene are associated with Parkinson disease, a progressive disorder affecting movement and other nervous-system functions. No established role in cancer is indicated.

LYFE Sciences is an AI system, and it can make mistakes. Criteria may be applied incorrectly, sources may be misread, and a confident-looking classification can still be wrong. Double-check every criterion and its underlying evidence before relying on any call.

Met Not met Not assessed Not applicable

The available evidence supports familial co-segregation (PP1 at supporting strength) and does not support a de novo interpretation (PS2 or PM6).

The documented affected-relative pattern is consistent with segregation, so BS4 is not met.

PS4 is met from verified exact-variant case-control enrichment in PMID:19308469; PMID:15925109 independently shows enrichment but its exact confidence interval includes 1.

PP4 is not met because the Parkinson disease phenotype is not highly specific for a single genetic etiology.

PP5 and BP6 are not met because the exact-variant ClinVar record has no expert-panel assertion and only clinical-laboratory Pathogenic submissions.

BP5 is not assessed because no qualifying alternate molecular basis is documented for a case carrying the exact variant.

The variant is missense, so PP3/BP4 are adjudicated through the REVEL path only. REVEL 0.705 supports PP3 at supporting strength and is outside the BP4 supporting range; no other computational criterion is evaluated by this group.

Population evidence supports PM2 at supporting strength only; BA1 and BS1 are not met because the required gnomAD filtering FAF is far below their thresholds.

BS2 is not applicable because the associated LRRK2 Parkinson disease is late-onset and the ACMG/AMP definition requires full penetrance at an early age.

PS3 StrongACMG_2015Met, strong: R1441G reduced GTP hydrolysis and disrupted Ser910/Ser935 phosphorylation and 14-3-3 binding in two variant-specific functional studies. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

PS3 is met at strong strength. Two independent functional studies directly evaluated LRRK2 p.Arg1441Gly (c.4321C>G). In a purified LRRK2 GTPase-domain assay, R1441G showed significantly reduced GTP hydrolysis relative to wild type, while GTP binding was similar to wild type, using GTP hydrolysis, GTP-sepharose pull-down, and GTPγS-binding assays. In a separate full-length LRRK2 cellular study, R1441G showed markedly reduced Ser910/Ser935 phosphorylation and reduced 14-3-3 binding, with altered cytoplasmic localization assessed by confocal microscopy. These assays include wild-type comparison and directly measure biologically relevant LRRK2 biochemical and regulatory functions; together they provide well-established evidence of a damaging effect. The studies are research assays rather than explicitly validated clinical diagnostic laboratory assays, but the concordant, variant-specific results support the standard PS3 strong application under generic ACMG/AMP.

Rule
Well-established in vitro or in vivo functional studies supportive of a damaging effect on the gene or gene product.
Evidence considered
  • PMID:17623048, Results paragraph and Fig. 5: purified FLAG-tagged LRRK2 GTPase-domain constructs containing R1441G showed significantly reduced GTP hydrolysis versus wild type; GTP binding was similar to wild type in GTP-sepharose pull-down and GTPγS-labeling assays.
  • PMID:17623048, experimental context: LRRK2 amino acids 1321–1516 were expressed in HEK-293T cells, affinity-purified, and tested with GTP hydrolysis, GTP-sepharose pull-down, and GTPγS-binding assays.
  • PMID:20642453, Results: full-length LRRK2 R1441G was among the PD-associated mutants with markedly reduced Ser910/Ser935 phosphorylation and reduced 14-3-3 binding; most such mutants accumulated in cytoplasmic pools.
  • PMID:20642453, experimental context: FLAG-tagged full-length LRRK2 proteins were expressed in HEK-293 cells, immunoprecipitated, and assessed by quantitative immunoblotting, 14-3-3 binding assays, and confocal microscopy in inducible GFP-LRRK2 cell lines.

Reasoning

PS4 is met. The exact LRRK2 c.4321C>G (p.Arg1441Gly) variant was verified in two variant-specific case-control reports. In PMID:15925109, it occurred in 5/182 late-onset Parkinson disease cases and 0/100 matched controls; the calculated OR is infinite, with an exact two-sided 95% CI of approximately 0.51 to infinity, so this individual study's CI includes 1. In PMID:19308469, it occurred in 29/29 unrelated Parkinson disease carriers and 0/85 mutation-negative controls; the calculated OR is infinite, with an exact two-sided 95% CI of approximately 319.45 to infinity, which excludes 1 and exceeds the ACMG/AMP OR >5.0 requirement. The latter study therefore provides qualifying case-control enrichment; the two studies are reported separately and are not treated as independent pooled evidence.

Rule
The prevalence of the variant in affected individuals is significantly increased compared to the prevalence in controls. ... Relative risk (RR) or odds ratio (OR), as obtained from case-control studies, is >5.0 and the confidence interval around the estimate of RR or OR does not include 1.0.
Evidence considered
  • PMID:15925109, abstract/Results/Table 1: exact 4321C>G (R1441G) in 5 (2.7%) of 182 late-onset Parkinson disease patients and absent from 100 age-, sex-, and ethnicity-matched controls; calculated OR = infinity, exact two-sided 95% CI approximately 0.51 to infinity.
  • PMID:19308469, Results: 29 unrelated Parkinson disease patients carrying R1441G versus 85 mutation-negative controls; calculated OR = infinity, exact two-sided 95% CI approximately 319.45 to infinity, excluding 1.

PM1 ModerateACMG_2015Met: residue 1441 lies within the ROC GTPase domain (amino acids 1321-1516) and recurrent pathogenic R1441 substitutions define a disease-associated hotspot. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

LRRK2 p.Arg1441Gly lies within the established Rab-like GTPase/ROC domain: the functional study used the LRRK2 GTPase domain spanning amino acids 1321-1516, which contains residue 1441. The same residue is a recurrent disease-associated hotspot with pathogenic R1441C, R1441G, and R1441H substitutions, and the supplied evidence identifies no benign interpretation for this residue or domain. The LRRK2 VCEP is listed without released criteria and vcep_materials.json contains no domain table, so this is assessed under generic ACMG/AMP and requires human confirmation of the domain-wide benign-variation exclusion.

Rule
Located in a mutational hot spot and/or critical and well-established functional domain (e.g. active site of an enzyme) without benign variation.
Evidence considered
  • Li et al. 2007 studied the LRRK2 GTPase domain at amino acids 1321-1516 and included residue R1441; the R1441C/R1441G mutants showed significantly reduced GTP hydrolysis.
  • Nichols et al. 2010 describes R1441C, R1441G, and R1441H as common well-characterized pathogenic mutations, supporting recurrence at the same residue.
  • The ClinGen LRRK2 specification is listed on CSPEC but has no released criteria, and vcep_materials.json has no LRRK2 domain_tables entry; therefore no VCEP-specific region restriction supersedes the generic domain rule.
Still missing
  • A comprehensive domain-wide benign-variation assessment is not available in the supplied evidence.

PM2 SupportingACMGMet at supporting strength: gnomAD v4.1 grpmax FAF is 5.54e-06, below the generic PM2 supporting threshold of 0.0001. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

PM2 at supporting strength is met. No LRRK2-specific population rule is released, so the generic all-comers gnomAD data apply. gnomAD v4.1 detects the variant at 5/1,612,956 alleles with total AF = 3.0998985713187463e-06, grpmax FAF = 5.54e-06, and zero homozygotes; gnomAD v2.1 independently reports 1/251,116 alleles and zero homozygotes. The qualifying frequency is below the generic PM2 supporting threshold of <=0.0001, although the variant is not completely absent from controls.

Rule
PM2: Absent from controls (or at extremely low frequency if recessive) in Exome Sequencing Project, 1000 Genomes or Exome Aggregation Consortium. ... PM2 (supporting): <= 0.0001 — SVI recommendation to downgrade PM2 to Supporting (ClinGen SVI 2020) (PMID:25741868)
Evidence considered
  • Generic rules govern because the listed LRRK2 CSPEC has no released criteria; no non-cancer or exome-only VCEP source is specified for PM2.
  • gnomAD v4.1 reports 5/1,612,956 total alleles, total AF = 3.0998985713187463e-06, grpmax FAF = 5.54e-06, and homozygotes = 0.
  • gnomAD v2.1 reports 1/251,116 exome alleles, AF = 3.9822233549435324e-06, and homozygotes = 0.
  • The generic PM2 supporting threshold is <=0.0001; both datasets are below this threshold. Because the variant is observed at very low frequency rather than absent, the evidence supports PM2 only at supporting strength.

PM5 ModerateACMG_2015Met: pathogenic p.Arg1441Cys and p.Arg1441His are established at the same residue as the queried p.Arg1441Gly. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The novel missense change p.Arg1441Gly occurs at residue 1441, where different missense substitutions p.Arg1441Cys and p.Arg1441His have been established as pathogenic in the supplied literature. The review article explicitly lists R1441C, R1441G, and R1441H among known pathogenic LRRK2 mutations, and the functional study directly evaluates R1441C/G disease-associated mutants.

Rule
Novel missense change at an amino acid residue where a different missense change determined to be pathogenic has been seen before.
Evidence considered
  • The Parkinson disease recommendations state that R1441C, R1441G, and other listed LRRK2 mutations are known pathogenic based on cosegregation in Parkinson disease families.
  • Nichols et al. 2010 directly quotes the common well-characterized pathogenic mutations R1441C, R1441G, and R1441H.
  • Lewis et al. 2007 reports reduced GTP hydrolysis for LRRK2 GTPase-domain constructs carrying R1441C or R1441G, corroborating the disease-associated same-residue substitutions.

Reasoning

The exact LRRK2 p.R1441G variant, corresponding to NM_198578.4:c.4321C>G, was observed in the proband, her affected mother, and an affected first cousin in a Japanese Parkinson disease family; a healthy brother lacked the variant. This is direct co-segregation with disease in multiple affected relatives in LRRK2, a gene reported in the case evidence as causing autosomal-dominant Parkinson disease. The available evidence supports PP1 at supporting strength; no generic ACMG/AMP numerical threshold was supplied for escalation to a stronger level.

Rule
Co-segregation with disease in multiple affected family members in a gene definitively known to cause the disease. ... May be used as stronger evidence with increasing segregation data.
Evidence considered
  • Identification of a Japanese family with LRRK2 p.R1441G-related Parkinson's disease, Results section 3.1, reports: the proband (II:5), her mother (I:6), and first cousin (II:2) carried heterozygous p.R1441G and had parkinsonism, whereas a healthy brother lacked the variant.

PP3 SupportingACMGMet at supporting: missense REVEL score 0.705 meets the PP3 threshold of >=0.644 but is below the moderate threshold of >=0.773. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The variant is a missense substitution, NP_940980.4:p.(Arg1441Gly), so the governing generic rule selects the REVEL path only; SpliceAI and BayesDel are not used for PP3/BP4 in this situation. The REVEL score is 0.705, which meets the generic PP3 supporting threshold of >= 0.644 but does not meet the moderate threshold of >= 0.773. Therefore PP3 is met at supporting strength. The REVEL value is from the local REVEL predictor lookup, and the threshold is the ClinGen SVI REVEL calibration of Pejaver et al. 2022 (PMID:36413997).

Rule
Missense variant -> REVEL only. Its SpliceAI score says nothing about whether the amino-acid substitution is tolerated, so 'no predicted splice impact' is never BP4 support for a missense variant. ... PP3 (supporting): >= 0.644 — ClinGen SVI REVEL calibration (Pejaver et al. 2022, Am J Hum Genet) (PMID:36413997)
Evidence considered
  • Local REVEL predictor lookup for NM_198578.4:c.4321C>G / NP_940980.4:p.(Arg1441Gly): REVEL = 0.705.

  • Because this is a missense variant, the applicable computational path is REVEL only; the available SpliceAI score and BayesDel score are not counted for PP3.

PS1 ACMG_2015Not met: available reports establish p.Arg1441Gly itself, but no different-nucleotide variant producing the same amino-acid change was identified. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The queried variant is LRRK2 p.Arg1441Gly (c.4321C>G). The supplied evidence establishes this exact protein change as pathogenic, but PS1 requires a previously established pathogenic variant producing the same amino-acid change through a different nucleotide change. No such alternate-nucleotide p.Arg1441Gly variant was identified; reports of p.Arg1441Gly itself do not satisfy PS1.

Rule
Same amino acid change as a previously established pathogenic variant regardless of nucleotide change.
Evidence considered
  • ClinVar identifies the queried variant as NM_198578.4:c.4321C>G (p.Arg1441Gly) and Pathogenic, but this is the same nucleotide change rather than an alternate nucleotide change.
  • Mata et al. 2005 reports LRRK2 4321C>G (R1441G); the paper does not provide a different nucleotide change encoding the same p.Arg1441Gly substitution.
  • Kumamoto et al. 2014 reports heterozygous LRRK2 4321C>G (p.R1441G); again, this is the queried nucleotide change.

PP4 ACMG_2015Not met: LRRK2-associated Parkinson disease is clinically indistinguishable from sporadic typical Parkinson disease, so the phenotype is not highly specific for one genetic etiology. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

PP4 is not met. The relevant clinical review describes LRRK2-associated Parkinson disease as clinically indistinguishable from sporadic typical Parkinson disease with respect to age at onset and symptomatology. Parkinson disease is therefore not a highly specific phenotype for a single genetic etiology in this case, even though the variant is associated with Parkinson disease.

Rule
Patient’s phenotype or family history is highly specific for a disease with a single genetic etiology.
Evidence considered
  • PMID:23279440, clinical review: LRRK2-associated Parkinson disease is described as clinically indistinguishable from sporadic typical Parkinson disease with respect to age at onset and symptomatology; the same review reports R1441G as a Basque founder mutation and a pathogenic mutation based on cosegregation, but those facts do not establish PP4 phenotype specificity.
Sources
PP5 ACMG_2015Not met: ClinVar has no exact-variant expert-panel classification; its Pathogenic label comes from clinical laboratories and cannot trigger PP5. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

PP5 is not met. ClinVar contains an exact-variant Pathogenic classification from clinical laboratories, but the record documents zero expert-panel submissions and no exact-variant ClinVar expert-panel classification. Ordinary laboratory submissions and aggregate ClinVar labels do not satisfy the required PP5 source condition.

Rule
Reputable source recently reports variant as pathogenic, but the evidence is not available to the laboratory to perform an independent evaluation.
Evidence considered
  • ClinVar variation 1936 exact match for NM_198578.4:c.4321C>G (p.Arg1441Gly): Pathogenic classification from six clinical laboratories, review status 'criteria provided, multiple submitters, no conflicts,' and expert_panel_submissions = 0.

BA1 ACMGNot met: gnomAD v4.1 grpmax FAF is 5.54e-06, far below the generic BA1 threshold of 0.05. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

BA1 is not met. No governing LRRK2-specific population rule is released, so the generic all-comers gnomAD data apply. The required filtering allele-frequency measure is gnomAD v4.1 grpmax FAF = 5.54e-06, far below the generic BA1 threshold of >=0.05. The gnomAD v4.1 popmax point estimate of 3.34213e-05 is not used for BA1, and the variant is reported as Pathogenic by six clinical laboratories in ClinVar, so there is no frequency-based stand-alone benign call.

Rule
BA1: Allele frequency is above 5% in Exome Sequencing Project, 1000 Genomes or Exome Aggregation Consortium. ... BA1 (stand-alone): >= 0.05 — ACMG/AMP 2015 stand-alone benign allele frequency (PMID:25741868)
Evidence considered

Reasoning

BS1 is not met. The required filtering allele-frequency measure is gnomAD v4.1 grpmax FAF = 5.54e-06, below the generic BS1 default threshold of >=0.01 by more than three orders of magnitude. The observed gnomAD v4.1 popmax point estimate of 3.34213e-05 is not used. The variant is a known Northern Spanish founder allele associated with late-onset Parkinson disease, but its frequency is not elevated in the qualifying population data, so no maximum-credible-frequency exception or ancestry-specific BS1 call is needed.

Rule
BS1: Allele frequency is greater than expected for the disorder. ... BS1 (strong): >= 0.01 — Generic SVI default; per-gene derivation preferred (Whiffin et al. 2017) (PMID:28518168)

Reasoning

The available family evidence does not show lack of segregation in affected members. Instead, the exact p.R1441G variant was present in the proband, her affected mother, and an affected first cousin, while the reported healthy brother lacked the variant. Thus, the documented family pattern is concordant with segregation rather than non-segregation.

Rule
Lack of segregation in affected members of a family.

BP1 ACMG_2015Not met: LRRK2 disease is established through recurrent pathogenic missense substitutions, not primarily truncating variants. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

BP1 applies to a gene in which primarily truncating variants are known to cause disease. The supplied LRRK2 evidence instead documents multiple recurrent pathogenic missense substitutions, including R1441C, R1441G, R1441H, G2019S, and others, and describes missense variants as established causes of autosomal-dominant Parkinson disease. Therefore the gene-level premise for BP1 is not satisfied.

Rule
Missense variant in a gene for which primarily truncating variants are known to cause disease.

BP4 ACMGNot met: missense REVEL score 0.705 exceeds the BP4 supporting cutoff of <=0.29 and is therefore indeterminate for benign computational evidence. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The variant is a missense substitution, NP_940980.4:p.(Arg1441Gly), so the governing generic rule selects the REVEL path only; the SpliceAI score cannot be substituted for an indeterminate REVEL result. REVEL is 0.705, which is above the BP4 supporting cutoff of <= 0.29 and lies in the gray zone between the deleterious PP3 supporting cutoff of >= 0.644 and the benign BP4 supporting cutoff. Therefore BP4 is not met. BayesDel is not used because no generic ACMG-strength calibration is established for it.

Rule
Missense variant -> REVEL only. An indeterminate result on the applicable path means PP3/BP4 are simply not met. It does not license reaching across to the other path's score - a missense variant whose REVEL sits in the gray zone gets no BP4, however clean its SpliceAI delta. ...

BP6 ACMG_2015Not met: no exact-variant benign expert-panel report exists, while ClinVar records Pathogenic clinical-laboratory submissions and zero expert-panel submissions. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

BP6 is not met. The exact-variant ClinVar record has no benign or likely benign expert-panel classification; instead, it reports a Pathogenic classification from clinical laboratories and zero expert-panel submissions. No exact-variant reputable benign source meeting the required source condition was identified.

Rule
Reputable source recently reports variant as benign, but the evidence is not available to the laboratory to perform an independent evaluation.
Evidence considered
  • ClinVar variation 1936 exact match for NM_198578.4:c.4321C>G (p.Arg1441Gly): Pathogenic classification from six clinical laboratories, no benign classification, and expert_panel_submissions = 0.

PS2 ACMG_2015Not assessed: no documented de novo observation with confirmation of both maternity and paternity is available for this patient. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

No case-specific evidence documents that the variant arose de novo in the proband. In particular, there is no documented confirmation of both maternity and paternity, and no evidence establishes absence of a family history for this patient. The available family report describes an inherited familial occurrence rather than a de novo event.

Rule
De novo (both maternity and paternity confirmed) in a patient with the disease and no family history.
Evidence considered
  • No case-specific parental testing or de novo observation was identified in the available evidence.
  • PMID:24973808 reports an inherited familial occurrence in which the proband, her mother, and a first cousin carried p.R1441G; this is not de novo evidence for the present proband.
Still missing
  • Case-specific parental genotypes and confirmed maternity and paternity are not documented.
  • The proband's family history is not documented as negative.
Sources
PM6 ACMG_2015Not assessed: no assumed de novo observation without parental confirmation is documented for this patient. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

No case-specific evidence supports an assumed de novo event. The available family report instead documents transmission of p.R1441G from an affected mother to the proband and does not provide a de novo parental-testing scenario for this patient.

Rule
Assumed de novo, but without confirmation of paternity and maternity.
Evidence considered
  • No case-specific assumed de novo observation was identified in the available evidence.
  • PMID:24973808 describes familial transmission from an affected mother to the proband, which does not support PM6 for the present proband.
Still missing
  • No case-specific evidence identifies the variant as de novo based on phenotype and absent parental variant testing.
  • Parental testing and family-history data for the present proband are not documented.

PP2 ACMG_2015Not assessed: missense disease mechanism is supported, but no gene-wide measure establishes a low rate of benign LRRK2 missense variation. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The supplied evidence documents multiple pathogenic LRRK2 missense substitutions and a missense disease mechanism, but it does not provide the required gene-level evidence that LRRK2 has a low rate of benign missense variation. A target-variant population frequency is insufficient to establish the gene-wide benign missense rate, so PP2 cannot be assessed under the stated rule.

Rule
Missense variant in a gene that has a low rate of benign missense variation and where missense variants are a common mechanism of disease.
Evidence considered
  • The literature identifies several pathogenic LRRK2 missense substitutions, supporting a missense disease mechanism.
  • gnomAD v4.1 reports the queried variant at total allele frequency 3.0999e-06, but this single-variant frequency does not establish the gene-wide rate of benign missense variation required for PP2.
Still missing
  • Gene-level benign missense variation rate.

BS3 ACMG_2015Not assessed: available R1441G functional studies report reduced GTP hydrolysis and disrupted 14-3-3 regulation, with no normal-function result supporting BS3. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

No well-established functional study in the reviewed evidence demonstrates that LRRK2 p.Arg1441Gly has no damaging effect on protein function or splicing. The available variant-specific studies report damaging biochemical and regulatory effects rather than normal function, and therefore do not support BS3. Because absence of benign functional evidence is not itself evidence against the criterion, BS3 is not assessed.

Rule
Well-established in vitro or in vivo functional studies show no damaging effect on protein function or splicing.
Evidence considered
  • PMID:17623048: the variant-specific assay reported reduced GTP hydrolysis rather than preserved function.
  • PMID:20642453: the variant-specific assays reported reduced Ser910/Ser935 phosphorylation, reduced 14-3-3 binding, and altered cytoplasmic localization rather than preserved function.
Still missing
  • No well-established variant-specific assay demonstrating preserved LRRK2 protein function or normal splicing was identified.

BP2 ACMG_2015Not assessed: no documented pathogenic second allele or cis/trans phase is available for NM_198578.4:c.4321C>G. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The available evidence does not document a second pathogenic variant in the same individual, nor does it establish cis or trans phase for NM_198578.4:c.4321C>G (p.Arg1441Gly). PMID:24973808 reports the queried variant as heterozygous in an affected proband and affected relatives, but does not report a second pathogenic allele or cis/trans relationship; this is insufficient to assess BP2.

Rule
Observed in trans with a pathogenic variant for a fully penetrant dominant gene/disorder or observed in cis with a pathogenic variant in any inheritance pattern.
Evidence considered
  • Identification of a Japanese family with LRRK2 p.R1441G-related Parkinson's disease, Results section 3.1 Genetic findings, paragraph 2: the queried variant was heterozygous in proband II:5 and affected relatives I:6 and II:2; the reported family analysis does not establish a second pathogenic allele or cis/trans phase relevant to BP2.
Still missing
  • A report of a second pathogenic variant and validated cis/trans phase in the same individual is needed to assess BP2.

BP5 ACMG_2015Not assessed: no qualifying case is documented with both this exact variant and an alternate molecular basis for the disease. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

BP5 was not assessed because the available evidence does not establish whether this variant was found in a case with an alternate molecular basis for disease. The reviewed literature documents Parkinson disease cases carrying LRRK2 R1441G, including a family study, but it does not provide a qualifying alternate molecular diagnosis for a case carrying this exact variant.

Rule
Variant found in a case with an alternate molecular basis for disease.
Evidence considered
  • PMID:15925109 and PMID:19308469 document Parkinson disease cases carrying R1441G but do not document an alternate molecular basis for disease in those cases.
  • PMID:24973808 reports familial co-segregation of p.R1441G with parkinsonism and does not establish an alternate molecular diagnosis.

PVS1 N/ANot applicable: PVS1 requires a null variant (nonsense, frameshift, canonical splice, start-loss or stop-loss), and this is a missense variant. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

PVS1 (ClinGen SVI PVS1 recommendations, PMC6185798, pvs1_generic_framework) applies only to null variant classes — nonsense, frameshift, canonical ±1/2 splice-consensus, translation-initiation-codon loss, and stop-loss variants — each expected to trigger nonsense-mediated decay or otherwise abolish normal protein function. NM_198578.4:c.4321C>G in LRRK2 is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_940980.4:p.(Arg1441Gly). As a result, no null-variant mechanism (nonsense-mediated decay, truncation, or canonical splice disruption) is triggered by this variant class, so PVS1's structural prerequisite is not met by this variant class. No VCEP criteria specification covers PVS1 for LRRK2, so the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 definition applies. This determination was made deterministically from the variant's consequence class, prior to LLM adjudication.

PM3 N/ANot applicable: LRRK2-associated Parkinson disease is autosomal dominant, whereas PM3 applies only to recessive disorders. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

PM3 is not applicable because the relevant LRRK2-associated Parkinson disease context is autosomal dominant, not recessive. The governing PM3 definition is limited to recessive disorders and therefore does not apply regardless of whether an in-trans pathogenic variant was tested.

Rule
For recessive disorders, detected in trans with a pathogenic variant
Evidence considered
  • ClinVar variation 1936 lists the associated condition as Autosomal dominant Parkinson disease 8; no recessive disease context is documented for this interpretation.

PM4 N/ANot applicable: PM4 requires a protein-length change, and this is a missense variant. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

PM4 (Richards et al. 2015, PMID:25741868) applies to protein length changes: in-frame insertions/deletions in a non-repetitive region, or stop-loss variants that extend the protein past the reference stop codon. NM_198578.4:c.4321C>G in LRRK2 is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_940980.4:p.(Arg1441Gly). As a result, no change in protein length occurs, so there is nothing for this criterion to evaluate, so PM4's structural prerequisite is not met by this variant class. No VCEP criteria specification covers PM4 for LRRK2, so the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 definition applies. This determination was made deterministically from the variant's consequence class, prior to LLM adjudication.

BS2 N/ANot applicable: LRRK2-associated Parkinson disease is late-onset, whereas BS2 requires full penetrance expected at an early age. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

BS2 is not applicable under the governing definition because LRRK2-associated Parkinson disease is a late-onset disorder, not a disorder for which full penetrance is expected at an early age. The available case-specific literature describes the exact variant in late-onset Parkinson disease; gnomAD reports zero homozygotes but does not establish an eligible healthy adult carrier observation, and absence of homozygotes cannot satisfy BS2 for this autosomal-dominant late-onset condition.

Rule
BS2: Observed in a healthy adult individual for a recessive (homozygous), dominant (heterozygous), or X-linked (hemizygous) disorder, with full penetrance expected at an early age.
Evidence considered
  • PMID:15925109 describes the exact LRRK2 4321C>G variant in sporadic, late-onset Parkinson disease patients, including 5 of 182 late-onset cases and no matched controls.
  • gnomAD v4.1 reports 0 homozygotes among 1,612,956 alleles, and gnomAD v2.1 reports 0 homozygotes among 251,116 alleles; these aggregate counts do not document an eligible healthy adult carrier with the age and penetrance conditions required by BS2.

BP3 N/ANot applicable: BP3 requires an in-frame indel in a repeat region, and this is a missense variant. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

BP3 (Richards et al. 2015, PMID:25741868) applies to in-frame insertions/deletions located in a repetitive region without a known function. NM_198578.4:c.4321C>G in LRRK2 is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_940980.4:p.(Arg1441Gly). As a result, the variant does not alter protein length within a repeat region, so there is nothing for this criterion to evaluate, so BP3's structural prerequisite is not met by this variant class. No VCEP criteria specification covers BP3 for LRRK2, so the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 definition applies.

BP7 N/ANot applicable: BP7 requires a synonymous variant, and this is a missense variant. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

BP7 (Richards et al. 2015, PMID:25741868) is defined for a synonymous (silent) variant for which splicing prediction algorithms predict no impact to the splice consensus sequence and the nucleotide is not highly conserved. NM_198578.4:c.4321C>G in LRRK2 is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_940980.4:p.(Arg1441Gly). As a result, the encoded protein sequence is altered, so the criterion's silent-variant premise does not hold regardless of any splicing prediction, so BP7's structural prerequisite is not met by this variant class. No VCEP criteria specification covers BP7 for LRRK2, so the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 definition applies. This determination was made deterministically from the variant's consequence class, prior to LLM adjudication.

How the predictions were used

PP3 SupportingACMGMet at supporting: missense REVEL score 0.705 meets the PP3 threshold of >=0.644 but is below the moderate threshold of >=0.773. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The variant is a missense substitution, NP_940980.4:p.(Arg1441Gly), so the governing generic rule selects the REVEL path only; SpliceAI and BayesDel are not used for PP3/BP4 in this situation. The REVEL score is 0.705, which meets the generic PP3 supporting threshold of >= 0.644 but does not meet the moderate threshold of >= 0.773. Therefore PP3 is met at supporting strength. The REVEL value is from the local REVEL predictor lookup, and the threshold is the ClinGen SVI REVEL calibration of Pejaver et al. 2022 (PMID:36413997).

Rule
Missense variant -> REVEL only. Its SpliceAI score says nothing about whether the amino-acid substitution is tolerated, so 'no predicted splice impact' is never BP4 support for a missense variant. ... PP3 (supporting): >= 0.644 — ClinGen SVI REVEL calibration (Pejaver et al. 2022, Am J Hum Genet) (PMID:36413997)

BP4 ACMGNot met: missense REVEL score 0.705 exceeds the BP4 supporting cutoff of <=0.29 and is therefore indeterminate for benign computational evidence. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The variant is a missense substitution, NP_940980.4:p.(Arg1441Gly), so the governing generic rule selects the REVEL path only; the SpliceAI score cannot be substituted for an indeterminate REVEL result. REVEL is 0.705, which is above the BP4 supporting cutoff of <= 0.29 and lies in the gray zone between the deleterious PP3 supporting cutoff of >= 0.644 and the benign BP4 supporting cutoff. Therefore BP4 is not met. BayesDel is not used because no generic ACMG-strength calibration is established for it.

Rule
Missense variant -> REVEL only. An indeterminate result on the applicable path means PP3/BP4 are simply not met. It does not license reaching across to the other path's score - a missense variant whose REVEL sits in the gray zone gets no BP4, however clean its SpliceAI delta. ... BP4 (supporting): <= 0.29 — ClinGen SVI REVEL calibration (Pejaver et al. 2022, Am J Hum Genet) (PMID:36413997)
