No pathogenic criterion marked as applied in the recorded assessment.
The allele frequency of NM_016507.4:c.2964C>T in population databases exceeds the threshold expected for a pathogenic CDK12 variant. In gnomAD v2.1, the variant has a grpmax filtering allele frequency of 0.798% (African/African American subpopulation AF 0.885%) with 2 homozygous individuals. In gnomAD v4.1, the grpmax FAF is 0.781% (African/African American AF 0.835%) with 4 homozygous individuals. These frequencies are well above the BS1 threshold of >0.3% for a rare Mendelian disorder gene, supporting that this variant is too common in the general population to be pathogenic.
Computational evidence predicts no impact on splicing for this synonymous variant. SpliceAI assigns a maximum delta score of 0.02 (well below the 0.2 threshold), with no predicted donor gain, donor loss, acceptor gain, or acceptor loss. This supports a benign interpretation.
NM_016507.4:c.2964C>T is a synonymous variant (p.Phe988=) with SpliceAI predicting no splice impact (max delta score 0.02). No donor/acceptor gain or loss is predicted. The nucleotide substitution is not at a highly conserved splice consensus position and computational predictions support no effect on splicing. BP7 is met at supporting benign strength.
gene-specific framework lacked a usable explicit final combination framework, so generic ACMG/AMP 2015 final-combination rules were applied as fallback; applied criteria: BS1 strong benign, BP4 supporting benign, BP7 supporting benign; combination = 1 strong benign + 2 supporting benign, which maps to Likely Benign.

NM_016507.4:c.2964C>T (p.Phe988=) is a synonymous variant in CDK12. This variant is present in gnomAD at a grpmax filtering allele frequency of 0.798% (v2.1) and 0.781% (v4.1), with an African/African American subpopulation frequency of 0.885%, meeting BS1 at strong benign strength.
The variant is observed in 2 homozygous individuals in gnomAD v2.1 and 4 homozygous individuals in gnomAD v4.1, further supporting that biallelic presence is tolerated in the general population.
SpliceAI predicts no impact on splicing (max delta score 0.02), consistent with a synonymous variant that does not alter the protein product or disrupt normal mRNA processing, meeting BP7 at supporting benign strength.
Computational splicing predictions show no evidence of splice site disruption, meeting BP4 at supporting benign strength.
ClinVar reports this variant as Likely benign (2 clinical laboratories) and Benign (1 clinical laboratory); however the review status is 1-star (criteria provided, single submitter) and does not independently meet the 3-star expert panel threshold for BP6.
No pathogenic criteria are met. BS1 (strong benign), BP4 (supporting benign), and BP7 (supporting benign) together support a classification of Likely benign per ACMG/AMP 2015 guidelines.
No criteria match.
