ACMG classification

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 5 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.066831686 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 3.7, offset of -38, new splice context is: agtagccttttggattgtAGctg. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 3-49421573-C-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr3-49421573-C-G is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 56230.Status of the report is no_assertion_criteria_provided, 0 stars.
