Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
BP4 (moderate, benign): REVEL 0.018 falls below the <=0.183 moderate benign cutoff for this missense variant, indicating a non-damaging protein effect.
Final determination:
Generic ACMG/AMP 2015: one benign criterion at supporting/moderate strength (BP4) with no pathogenic criteria met satisfies no Benign, Likely Benign, Likely Pathogenic, or Pathogenic combination, giving Variant of Uncertain Significance.

| Criterion | Status | Rationale | Evidence used |
|---|---|---|---|
| PVS1 | N/A | 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_002691.4:c.187G>A in POLD1 is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_002682.2:p.(Glu63Lys). 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. This determination was made deterministically from the variant's consequence class, prior to LLM adjudication, because no structured VCEP criteria-combination framework governs this case (framework_complete=false); the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 fallback applies. |

| PM4 | N/A | 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_002691.4:c.187G>A in POLD1 is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_002682.2:p.(Glu63Lys). 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. This determination was made deterministically from the variant's consequence class, prior to LLM adjudication, because no structured VCEP criteria-combination framework governs this case (framework_complete=false); the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 fallback applies. |

| BP3 | N/A | BP3 (Richards et al. 2015, PMID:25741868) applies to in-frame insertions/deletions located in a repetitive region without a known function. NM_002691.4:c.187G>A in POLD1 is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_002682.2:p.(Glu63Lys). 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. This determination was made deterministically from the variant's consequence class, prior to LLM adjudication, because no structured VCEP criteria-combination framework governs this case (framework_complete=false); the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 fallback applies. |

| BP7 | N/A | 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_002691.4:c.187G>A in POLD1 is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_002682.2:p.(Glu63Lys). 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. This determination was made deterministically from the variant's consequence class, prior to LLM adjudication, because no structured VCEP criteria-combination framework governs this case (framework_complete=false); the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 fallback applies. |
