About CREBBP
CREBBP encodes a transcriptional co-activator with intrinsic histone acetyltransferase activity that couples chromatin remodeling to gene transcription and supports normal embryonic development, growth control, and cellular homeostasis. Inherited mutations in this gene cause Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome, a developmental disorder marked by distinctive facial and digit abnormalities along with neurological deficits. CREBBP acts as a tumor suppressor in cancer: it is disrupted by chromosomal translocations in acute myeloid leukemia, and somatic alterations occur across leukemias, lymphomas, and solid tumors such as small-cell lung, bladder, and squamous carcinomas.

No CREBBP ClinGen VCEP CSPEC or local gene-specific framework is available for this case (framework_mode=generic_acmg, cspec.found=false), so all codon/residue/domain criteria were evaluated against generic ACMG/AMP 2015 guidance only.
This variant (NM_004380.2:c.7299C>A, p.(Asp2433Glu)) is absent from ClinVar, absent from gnomAD v2.1/v4.1/Canada, and has 0 PMIDs identified by the literature pass, severely limiting evidence available for PS1, PM1, and PM5, all of which were returned as not_assessed pending targeted comparator/domain data collection.
PP2 could not be affirmatively resolved because no gene-level missense constraint metric was available, though available literature context shows CREBBP disease is predominantly LOF-mechanism with missense variants a real but minority contributor.
BP1 was determined not_applicable because the same literature context confirms missense variants are an accepted (non-negligible) CREBBP pathogenic mechanism, disqualifying the gene from the 'predominantly truncating-only' category BP1 requires.
CREBBP has no ClinGen VCEP-specific criterion specification loaded for this case (cspec.found=false), and no local custom gene framework was provided (gene_vcep_files empty, gene_vcep_dir null); the case is running under generic_acmg fallback.
No functional assay evidence (PS3/BS3-relevant) for NM_004380.2:c.7299C>A was found in any bundled source (review_manifest, case_summary, source_registry, prefetch, evidence, literature_pass, vcep_materials, fulltext_map); both criteria are therefore not_assessed rather than met or not_met.
No CREBBP-specific VCEP or gene-specific framework was available in the case materials; generic ACMG/AMP criteria were used only where applicable.
The bundle provides no case-control enrichment, exact-variant clinical phenotype, alternative molecular diagnosis, or relevant publication evidence for PS4, PP4, or BP5.
The exact variant is reported absent from ClinVar, and no expert-panel assertion exists for PP5 or BP6.
No CREBBP-specific ClinGen VCEP CSPEC or gene-specific PP3/BP4 lookup spreadsheet was found in vcep_materials.json (found = false, framework_mode = generic_acmg); generic ACMG/AMP 2015 computational-evidence rules were applied.
REVEL score 0.597 falls in the calibrated indeterminate zone (between 0.290 and 0.644, per Pejaver et al. PMID:36413997) and therefore does not support PP3 or BP4 at any strength.
BayesDel score is available but has no verified published calibration threshold accessible to this pipeline and was excluded from both PP3 and BP4 consideration per standing pipeline policy.
SpliceAI max delta score (0.003) shows no meaningful predicted splice impact, but this variant is missense with no plausible splicing mechanism, so the splice-impact sub-path was not independently invoked for either criterion.
Variant is missense, not synonymous, so BP7 is not applicable.
No criteria match.
Met · 1
PM2SupportingMet (supporting): absent from gnomAD v2.1, gnomAD v4.1, and gnomAD-Canada v1.0.
Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning
PM2 supporting is met because NM_004380.2:c.7299C>A (CREBBP p.Asp2433Glu) is reported absent from gnomAD v2.1, gnomAD v4.1, and gnomAD-Canada v1.0. The concordant absence supports rarity in population controls, although numeric allele-number and coverage details are not included in the bundle.
Rule
Generic ACMG/AMP PM2: variant absent from population databases or present at an extremely low frequency; applied at supporting strength for concordant absence across the queried population datasets.
Evidence considered
The case bundle explicitly reports absence of the variant from gnomAD v2.1, gnomAD v4.1, and gnomAD-Canada v1.0.
This is population rarity evidence only; no disease prevalence, penetrance estimate, or homozygote observation was supplied to refine the interpretation.
Because the bundle provides categorical absence without allele-number and coverage details, PM2 is retained at supporting strength with moderate confidence and human review flagged for population-data audit.
Still missing
The bundle lacks numeric allele counts, allele numbers, coverage metrics, and ancestry-specific sample sizes needed to quantify the strength of the absence observation.
No gene-specific CREBBP population-frequency specification was retrieved; generic ACMG/AMP fallback is therefore used.
PP3Not met: REVEL score 0.597 falls in the indeterminate zone between the benign-supporting (<=0.290) and pathogenic-supporting (>=0.644) thresholds.
Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning
NM_004380.2:c.7299C>A (p.(Asp2433Glu)) is a missense substitution; no CSPEC/VCEP-specific PP3/BP4 lookup material is available for CREBBP (framework_mode = generic_acmg, cspec.found = false, vcep_materials note = 'no cspec url available'), so generic calibrated computational thresholds apply. REVEL score = 0.597, which falls in the intermediate/indeterminate zone between the ClinGen SVI-calibrated benign-supporting threshold (<=0.290) and pathogenic-supporting threshold (>=0.644) established by Pejaver et al. (PMID:36413997), so REVEL does not reach the supporting threshold required for PP3. BayesDel score (0.0478) is available in prefetch data but no verified published calibration threshold for BayesDel is available to this pipeline, so it is treated as not_available and cannot be used to invoke PP3. SpliceAI max delta score = 0.003 (DS_AG 0.001, DS_AL 0.0, DS_DG 0.003, DS_DL 0.001), far below any splice-impact threshold; the variant is not in a canonical splice consensus region and is annotated as a missense/exonic substitution (canonical_splice_consensus = false), so this negligible score does not support a splice-disruption prediction and therefore cannot support PP3 via the splice-impact path either. No aGVGD data is present in the bundle. Variant is not synonymous, so BP7 does not apply.
REVEL score 0.597 (source_registry key 'revel', local REVEL v1.3 lookup) falls between the ClinGen SVI-calibrated benign-supporting cutoff (<=0.290) and pathogenic-supporting cutoff (>=0.644) per Pejaver et al., PMID:36413997, so it does not meet the threshold required to apply PP3.
SpliceAI max delta score = 0.003 (source_registry key 'spliceai') is negligible and does not support a splice-disruption prediction for this missense variant.
BayesDel score 0.0477783 is present (source_registry key 'bayesdel') but excluded from consideration because no verified published calibration threshold for BayesDel is available to this pipeline.
Still missing
REVEL 0.597 sits in the calibrated intermediate zone and cannot support PP3 at any strength.
No verified BayesDel threshold is available to this pipeline, so BayesDel score cannot be used for PP3.
No gene-specific CREBBP VCEP PP3/BP4 lookup material was available to override the generic calibration.

BA1Not met: absent from population databases, so no allele frequency approaches a benign-alone threshold.
Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning
BA1 is not met because NM_004380.2:c.7299C>A (CREBBP p.Asp2433Glu) is absent from the queried population datasets; no allele frequency remotely approaches a benign-alone threshold.
Rule
Generic ACMG/AMP BA1: allele frequency is sufficiently high for a benign-alone criterion; not met because the variant is absent from the queried population datasets.
Evidence considered
The bundle reports the variant as absent from gnomAD v2.1, gnomAD v4.1, and gnomAD-Canada v1.0; therefore the BA1 frequency threshold is not reached.
No population frequency, ancestry-specific enrichment, or threshold artifact supports BA1.
Still missing
The case bundle does not provide numeric allele counts, allele number, or ancestry-stratified coverage metrics for the absent records, although the categorical absence results are concordant across datasets.
BS1Not met: absent from gnomAD v2.1, v4.1, and gnomAD-Canada v1.0, so no frequency exceeds the disease-prevalence threshold.
Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning
BS1 is not met because the variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1, gnomAD v4.1, and gnomAD-Canada v1.0, so no observed frequency exceeds the expected-disease-prevalence threshold.
Rule
Generic ACMG/AMP BS1: allele frequency is greater than expected for the disorder; not met because no population observation or elevated frequency is reported.
Evidence considered
All three queried population resources report categorical absence of NM_004380.2:c.7299C>A; thus there is no frequency signal supporting BS1.
No disease-prevalence, penetrance, ancestry, or population-frequency artifact changes this conclusion.
Still missing
The bundle does not provide numeric allele counts, allele number, or ancestry-stratified coverage metrics for the absent records.
BP4Not met: REVEL score 0.597 exceeds the benign-supporting threshold of <=0.290.
Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning
Using the same generic calibrated thresholds (no CREBBP-specific VCEP PP3/BP4 lookup is available), REVEL score = 0.597 also fails to reach the benign-supporting threshold (<=0.290) from Pejaver et al. (PMID:36413997), so it cannot support BP4 either -- the score sits in the indeterminate zone, not the benign-predicted zone. BayesDel score (0.0478) is present but is treated as not_available for this pipeline because no verified published calibration threshold has been confirmed, so it cannot be used to invoke BP4. SpliceAI max delta score = 0.003 is very low and consistent with no predicted splice disruption, but this variant is a missense substitution with no canonical splice consensus involvement (canonical_splice_consensus = false) and no indication that a splicing mechanism is plausible for this exonic change; the low SpliceAI score therefore does not constitute an independent affirmative in-silico benign prediction relevant to this variant's primary (missense) consequence, and applying BP4 solely on an uninvoked splice-impact path would not be a genuine, mechanism-relevant application of that sub-path. Variant is not synonymous, so BP7 does not apply.
Rule
ACMG/AMP 2015 generic BP4 (REVEL calibration per PMID:36413997; SpliceAI splice-impact path not mechanistically applicable)
Evidence considered
REVEL score 0.597 (source_registry key 'revel') does not reach the benign-supporting threshold of <=0.290 from the ClinGen SVI REVEL calibration (Pejaver et al., PMID:36413997), so BP4 cannot be applied via the missense in-silico path.
SpliceAI max delta score = 0.003 (source_registry key 'spliceai') indicates no predicted splice disruption but is not applied toward BP4 because the variant is missense with no plausible splicing mechanism (not in canonical splice consensus).
BayesDel score 0.0477783 is present (source_registry key 'bayesdel') but excluded from consideration because no verified published calibration threshold for BayesDel is available to this pipeline.
Still missing
REVEL 0.597 sits in the calibrated intermediate zone and cannot support BP4 at any strength.
No verified BayesDel threshold is available to this pipeline, so BayesDel score cannot be used for BP4.
SpliceAI's negligible score is not being invoked for BP4 because splicing is not a plausible mechanism for this missense, non-splice-region variant.
No gene-specific CREBBP VCEP PP3/BP4 lookup material was available to override the generic calibration.

PS1Not assessed: no known pathogenic variant producing the identical amino acid change p.Asp2433Glu was identified.
Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning
No ClinGen CREBBP VCEP or local gene-specific framework is available for this case (cspec.found=false, framework_mode=generic_acmg), so PS1 falls back to generic ACMG/AMP guidance requiring a known pathogenic variant that produces the identical amino acid change (p.Asp2433Glu) via a different nucleotide substitution. ClinVar returned no result for this variant and no candidate same-residue/same-amino-acid comparator variants were surfaced anywhere in the bundle (literature_pass.json is empty with 0 PMIDs, and pm5_candidates explicitly notes candidate harvesting was skipped). There is no evidence in this bundle of any other pathogenic variant at codon 2433 producing Glu, so PS1 cannot be met, but the absence of a comparator search result (rather than a confirmed absence of any pathogenic p.Asp2433Glu report in the literature/ClinVar at large) means this should be treated as not_assessed pending a dedicated ClinVar/literature search for p.(Asp2433Glu) reports.
Rule
PS1 (generic ACMG/AMP, no applicable CSPEC/VCEP framework found): same amino acid change (p.Asp2433Glu) as an established pathogenic variant, arising from a different nucleotide substitution, with no evidence the alternate change affects splicing.
Evidence considered
ClinVar search for CREBBP c.7299C>A and NM_004380.2:c.7299C>A returned no_result / found=false, confirming this exact variant is absent from ClinVar and yielding no immediate comparator for the same amino acid change.
literature_pass.json reports total_pmids=0 with note 'No PMIDs found across evidence sources', so no literature-derived same-amino-acid-change comparator was identified for review.
Still missing
No ClinVar record for this variant or any same-amino-acid-change comparator at codon 2433
No literature search results (0 PMIDs) to check for reports of p.(Asp2433Glu) as pathogenic via an alternate nucleotide change
No CREBBP-specific VCEP PS1 rule available to define required strength or exceptions
PS2Not assessed: no confirmed de novo occurrence with parental testing was documented for the proband.
Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning
No case-level evidence is provided for a confirmed de novo occurrence in the proband. The evidence bundle contains no proband pedigree details, parental test results, maternity/paternity confirmation, or phenotype-linked de novo observation for NM_004380.2:c.7299C>A.
Rule
Generic ACMG/AMP PS2: confirmed de novo occurrence in an affected individual with confirmed maternity and paternity, with phenotype consistent with the disease; strength depends on the quality and completeness of de novo evidence.
Evidence considered
The consolidated case-evidence bundle provides no proband, parental testing, maternity/paternity, or de novo evidence for this variant.
No relevant literature PMIDs were identified in the literature pass, and no publication was reviewed for this criterion.
No CREBBP-specific VCEP/CSPEC framework was available; generic ACMG/AMP fallback was therefore used for the criterion definition only.

PS3Not assessed: no functional assay evidence for this variant was available.
Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning
No CSPEC/VCEP is available for CREBBP in this case (cspec.found=false; final_classification_framework.found=false, generic ACMG fallback), so no gene-specific PS3 functional-assay framework exists. The evidence bundle (review_manifest, case_summary, source_registry, prefetch, evidence, literature_pass, vcep_materials, fulltext_map) contains no functional/enzymatic/reporter/complementation assay data for NM_004380.2:c.7299C>A (p.Asp2433Glu). No PMID or source in this case describes a validated functional assay, well-established in vitro or in vivo study, or assay controls addressing this specific variant.
Still missing
No functional assay data (biochemical, cell-based, animal model, or high-throughput) identified for this variant anywhere in the evidence bundle.
No CREBBP-specific VCEP PS3 framework (assay validation tiers, control requirements) is available for this case.
PS4Not assessed: no affected-case series or case-control enrichment evidence was available.
Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning
No affected-case series, case-control enrichment analysis, or statistically significant excess of this exact variant was provided. The available bundle contains no literature PMIDs or case-level phenotype evidence sufficient to assess PS4.
Rule
Generic ACMG/AMP PS4: assess statistically significant enrichment of the variant in affected individuals compared with controls or a sufficiently compelling affected-case series; do not infer PS4 from the gene or disease association alone.
Evidence considered
The case bundle reports no PMIDs across evidence sources and provides no affected-case or control cohort data for NM_004380.2:c.7299C>A.
PS4 requires evidence that the variant is enriched in affected individuals relative to controls; that evidence is unavailable here.
Still missing
Affected-case counts and an appropriate control comparison for the exact variant are unavailable.
No validated case-control enrichment statistic or phenotype-specific case series is available.
PM1Not assessed: no residue-level domain or mutational-hotspot map covering codon 2433 was available.
Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning
No ClinGen CREBBP VCEP framework or local gene-specific mutational hotspot/domain map is present in this bundle (cspec.found=false; gene_vcep_dir=null). CREBBP is a large multidomain transcriptional co-activator (KIX, bromodomain, HAT catalytic domain, ZZ-type zinc finger, TAZ2, NCBD), but this bundle contains no residue-level structural/domain annotation pinpointing where codon 2433 falls relative to those domains, and no mutational-hotspot statistics (cancer hotspot search returned no significant hotspot at D2433, but that resource is somatic-cancer-oriented and not a substitute for a germline critical-domain determination). Without a domain/hotspot source specifically covering residue 2433, PM1 cannot be confidently assessed either way under generic ACMG/AMP guidance.
Rule
PM1 (generic ACMG/AMP, no applicable CSPEC/VCEP framework found): variant located in a mutational hotspot or well-established functional/structural domain without benign variation.
Evidence considered
case_summary.json compact_evidence.hotspots reports 'This variant does not lie in a statistically significant hotspot' from cancerhotspots.org, a somatic-cancer mutational hotspot resource that does not directly establish or exclude germline functional-domain criticality for PM1 purposes.
Still missing
No CREBBP VCEP or gene-specific critical-domain/hotspot map available in this case bundle
No structural/domain annotation resource confirming whether residue 2433 lies within a defined functional domain (e.g., TAZ2, NCBD) or a low-complexity/unstructured region
Somatic cancer hotspot databases (cancerhotspots.org) are not a validated proxy for germline PM1 domain criticality in Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome
PM3Not assessed: no pathogenic variant in trans or phase information was available.
Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning
No affected-proband observations, phase information, or identified pathogenic/likely pathogenic variant in trans were provided for NM_004380.2:c.7299C>A (NP_004371.2:p.(Asp2433Glu)). Therefore, the generic PM3 criterion cannot be assessed.
Rule
Generic PM3: evidence that the variant is observed in trans with a pathogenic variant in an affected individual supports pathogenicity; strength depends on the number and quality of informative observations.
Evidence considered
The case-evidence bundle contains no family segregation, affected-proband, parental-testing, or cis/trans-phase evidence for this variant.
No CREBBP-specific VCEP/CSPEC framework was available; generic ACMG/AMP criteria were therefore considered.
Still missing
Affected-proband observations are unavailable.
Parental testing and phase information are unavailable.
No pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant in trans has been documented.
PM5Not assessed: no pathogenic missense variant at the same codon (2433) was identified for comparison.
Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning
The pm5_candidates.json artifact explicitly reports pm5_mode='unknown' and eligible_for_classic_pm5_search=false, with the recommendation stating the pipeline could not confirm classic same-residue PM5 semantics safely and therefore skipped automatic comparator harvesting (total_candidates_seen=0). ClinVar itself returned no result for this variant or gene/residue query pattern. No other same-codon (residue 2433) missense comparator variants with pathogenic/likely pathogenic classifications were surfaced anywhere in the evidence bundle, so there is no basis to assess whether a different amino acid substitution at this codon has been classified as pathogenic.
Rule
PM5 (generic ACMG/AMP, no applicable CSPEC/VCEP framework found): a different missense change at the same residue has been established as pathogenic.
Evidence considered
pm5_candidates.json recommendation: 'Unable to confirm classic same-residue PM5 semantics safely; skipping automatic candidate harvesting' with candidate_summary showing total_candidates_seen=0 and same_residue_candidates=0.
ClinVar search for this variant/gene returned search_status='no_result', found=false, providing no comparator variant data at codon 2433.
Still missing
Automated PM5 comparator candidate harvesting was explicitly skipped by the pipeline (pm5_mode=unknown, eligible_for_classic_pm5_search=false)
No confirmed pathogenic/likely pathogenic ClinVar variants at codon 2433 with an alternate amino acid change were identified
A manual ClinVar/literature search specifically for other missense substitutions at residue Asp2433 has not been performed in this bundle
PM6Not assessed: no evidence of an assumed de novo origin was available.
Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning
No case-level evidence is provided for an assumed de novo occurrence. There are no documented parental test results, pedigree observations, or other evidence establishing that NM_004380.2:c.7299C>A arose de novo without confirmed maternity and paternity.
Rule
Generic ACMG/AMP PM6: assumed de novo occurrence in an affected individual when maternity and paternity are not confirmed; evidence is weaker than confirmed de novo evidence and must be supported by a consistent phenotype and credible parental-origin data.
Evidence considered
The consolidated case-evidence bundle contains no assumed-de-novo or parental-origin information for this variant.
No relevant literature PMIDs were identified in the literature pass, and no publication was reviewed for this criterion.
No CREBBP-specific VCEP/CSPEC framework was available; generic ACMG/AMP fallback was therefore used for the criterion definition only.

No segregation data are available. The evidence bundle does not identify informative affected or unaffected relatives, the number of informative meioses, genotype/phenotype results, or a consistent pattern of co-segregation for NM_004380.2:c.7299C>A.
Rule
Generic ACMG/AMP PP1: co-segregation with disease in multiple affected family members in a gene definitively associated with the disease; strength may increase with multiple informative meioses when justified by the applicable framework.
Evidence considered
The consolidated case-evidence bundle contains no family segregation observations or informative meiosis count for this variant.
No relevant literature PMIDs were identified in the literature pass, and no publication was reviewed for this criterion.

PP2Not assessed: CREBBP disease is predominantly loss-of-function, and no missense constraint metric was available to confirm missense as a common mechanism.
Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning
No ClinGen CREBBP VCEP framework is available to specify PP2 applicability or thresholds for this gene. Generic ACMG/AMP PP2 requires that missense variants are a common mechanism of disease in the gene AND that the gene shows a low rate of benign missense variation. The pvs1_gene_context artifact establishes that CREBBP-related Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome is predominantly a loss-of-function/haploinsufficiency disorder (mechanism_rationale confirms LOF as the supported germline mechanism), while one cited cohort study found missense variants accounted for only 4/17 (24%) of pathogenic CREBBP/EP300 findings versus predominance of frameshift, nonsense, splice-site, and CNV LOF events. This bundle contains no gene-level missense constraint metric (e.g., missense Z-score or o/e ratio) or a formal statement that missense is a 'common mechanism' of CREBBP disease as required to affirmatively meet PP2, so the criterion cannot be confidently resolved as met or not met from the data present.
Rule
PP2 (generic ACMG/AMP, no applicable CSPEC/VCEP framework found): missense variant in a gene with a low rate of benign missense variation and where missense variants are a common mechanism of disease.
Evidence considered
pvs1_gene_context.json mechanism_rationale: 'Targeted germline literature review identified disease-focused publications supporting CREBBP loss of function as a germline disease mechanism,' indicating LOF/haploinsufficiency, not missense gain/dominant-negative effect, is the primary established CREBBP disease mechanism.
pvs1_gene_context.json supporting literature (PMID:41153422 abstract snippet) reports pathogenic CREBBP/EP300 variant types in a 17-patient RSTS cohort as frameshift indels (6/17, 35%), missense (4/17, 24%), nonsense (3/17, 18%), splice-site (2/17, 12%), and gross deletions (2/17, 12%), showing missense variants are a real but minority mechanism relative to truncating/LOF events.
Still missing
No CREBBP-specific VCEP PP2 rule or benign-missense-rate threshold available
No gene-level missense constraint metric (e.g., gnomAD missense Z-score/o:e) present in this bundle
Available literature context (via pvs1_gene_context) indicates LOF/haploinsufficiency is the primary supported disease mechanism, with missense variants a minority of reported pathogenic events, which weighs against but does not conclusively resolve PP2 applicability

PP4Not assessed: no patient phenotype or disease-specific phenotype comparison was supplied.
Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning
No patient phenotype, clinical feature set, or disease-specific phenotype comparison was supplied for the variant. Phenotype specificity therefore cannot be assessed.
Rule
Generic ACMG/AMP PP4: apply only when the patient's phenotype or family history is highly specific for a disease with a single-gene etiology; gene-level disease knowledge alone is insufficient.
Evidence considered
The consolidated bundle contains no case phenotype description and no literature evidence tied to this exact variant.
PP4 cannot be applied from CREBBP gene membership or a general disease association without a documented, highly specific patient phenotype.
Still missing
Individual clinical phenotype and diagnostic phenotype details are unavailable.
No comparison of the observed phenotype with the highly specific phenotype of a CREBBP-related disorder is available.
BS2Not assessed: no observations of unaffected adult carriers or homozygotes were available.
Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning
BS2 cannot be established from this case bundle. The population resources report absence of the variant, but do not provide observations of unaffected healthy adults, homozygotes, or a validated penetrance context.
Rule
Generic ACMG/AMP BS2: observation in healthy adults, including homozygotes for a recessive disorder, for a fully penetrant early-onset disorder; not assessable without such observations and phenotype/penetrance context.
Evidence considered
The queried population datasets report the variant as absent rather than documenting unaffected carriers or homozygotes.
Absence from population databases is not evidence that the variant occurs in healthy adults and therefore cannot satisfy BS2.
Still missing
No healthy-adult carrier observations are reported.
No homozygote observations are reported.
No phenotype, age, ascertainment, or penetrance data are available to evaluate whether an observed carrier would be unaffected despite a fully penetrant early-onset disorder.
BS3Not assessed: no functional assay demonstrating normal or near-normal function was available.
Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning
No CSPEC/VCEP is available for CREBBP in this case (cspec.found=false; final_classification_framework.found=false, generic ACMG fallback), so no gene-specific BS3 functional-assay framework exists. The evidence bundle contains no functional/enzymatic/reporter/complementation assay data showing normal or near-normal function for NM_004380.2:c.7299C>A (p.Asp2433Glu). No PMID or source in this case describes a validated functional assay demonstrating no functional impact for this specific variant.
Still missing
No functional assay data (biochemical, cell-based, animal model, or high-throughput) identified for this variant anywhere in the evidence bundle.
No CREBBP-specific VCEP BS3 framework (assay validation tiers, control requirements) is available for this case.
BS4Not assessed: no unaffected relatives carrying the variant or other non-segregation evidence were available.
Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning
No non-segregation evidence is available. The evidence bundle does not report unaffected relatives who carry NM_004380.2:c.7299C>A, nor does it provide phenotype evaluations, age-related penetrance information, or informative meioses sufficient to assess lack of segregation.
Rule
Generic ACMG/AMP BS4: lack of segregation in affected family members, or presence of the variant in appropriately evaluated unaffected relatives, when the family is informative and penetrance/phenocopy considerations are addressed.
Evidence considered
The consolidated case-evidence bundle contains no unaffected carrier observations or other non-segregation data for this variant.
No relevant literature PMIDs were identified in the literature pass, and no publication was reviewed for this criterion.
No CREBBP-specific VCEP/CSPEC framework was available; generic ACMG/AMP fallback was therefore used for the criterion definition only.

BP2Not assessed: no phase information or cis/trans placement relative to a pathogenic variant was available.
Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning
No affected-proband or family observations demonstrate NM_004380.2:c.7299C>A in cis or trans with a pathogenic variant, and no phase information is available. Therefore, the generic BP2 criterion cannot be assessed.
Rule
Generic BP2: the variant is observed in trans with a pathogenic variant for a fully penetrant dominant disorder or in cis with a pathogenic variant for a recessive disorder, supporting a benign interpretation when the inheritance and phase context are informative.
Evidence considered
The case-evidence bundle contains no family segregation, affected-proband, parental-testing, or cis/trans-phase evidence relevant to BP2.
No CREBBP-specific VCEP/CSPEC framework was available; generic ACMG/AMP criteria were therefore considered.
Still missing
Evidence for occurrence with another pathogenic variant in cis or trans is unavailable.
Parental testing and phase information are unavailable.
No informative affected or unaffected individual observations are documented.
BP5Not assessed: no alternative molecular diagnosis explaining the phenotype was available.
Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning
No evidence was provided that an affected individual has an alternative molecular diagnosis that explains the phenotype and thereby argues against this variant as the cause. BP5 cannot be assessed from the absence of ClinVar, population data, or gene-level information.
Rule
Generic ACMG/AMP BP5: apply only when an affected individual has a molecular diagnosis that provides an alternative explanation for the phenotype; do not infer BP5 from a negative database search or from another variant's classification alone.
Evidence considered
The case bundle contains no alternative molecular diagnosis or phenotype-linked competing variant for the patient.
BP5 requires a documented alternative molecular basis for the phenotype; no such evidence is available.
Still missing
The patient's molecular workup and any confirmed alternative molecular diagnosis are unavailable.
No evidence links an alternative molecular cause to the patient's phenotype.
Not applicable · 7· recorded as not applicableShow reasons ▾Hide reasons ▴PVS1N/ANot applicable: this is a missense substitution, so no null-variant mechanism (e.g., nonsense-mediated decay) applies.
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_004380.2:c.7299C>A in CREBBP is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_004371.2:p.(Asp2433Glu). 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.
PM4N/ANot applicable: missense substitution causes no change in protein length.
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_004380.2:c.7299C>A in CREBBP is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_004371.2:p.(Asp2433Glu). 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.
PP5N/ANot applicable: no ClinVar expert-panel pathogenic assertion exists for this exact variant.
Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning
PP5 is restricted to an exact-variant ClinVar expert-panel assertion of Pathogenic or Likely pathogenic. The exact variant search returned no ClinVar record, so this prerequisite is absent. Ordinary, aggregate, or non-expert assertions were not used.
Rule
Apply PP5 only for an exact-variant ClinVar expert-panel classification of Pathogenic or Likely pathogenic; do not use ordinary laboratory submissions, aggregate labels, or non-expert assertions.
Evidence considered
ClinVar search for NM_004380.2:c.7299C>A returned no result; therefore no exact-variant expert-panel Pathogenic or Likely pathogenic classification is available to support PP5.
BP1N/ANot applicable: missense variants are an accepted CREBBP disease mechanism (24% of pathogenic findings in one cohort), not categorically benign.
Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning
BP1 applies only to genes where disease is caused predominantly or exclusively by truncating/loss-of-function variants such that missense variants are generally considered benign. The pvs1_gene_context artifact's cited literature confirms that CREBBP-related Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome, while predominantly LOF/haploinsufficiency in mechanism, does include a recurring proportion (4/17, 24% in one cohort) of pathogenic missense variants, indicating missense change is an accepted, non-negligible disease mechanism for this gene rather than one where missense variants are categorically benign. Under generic ACMG/AMP guidance this makes BP1 inapplicable to CREBBP missense variants.
Rule
BP1 (generic ACMG/AMP, no applicable CSPEC/VCEP framework found): missense variant in a gene for which primarily truncating variants are known to cause disease.
Evidence considered
pvs1_gene_context.json supporting literature (PMID:41153422 abstract snippet) documents missense variants as 4/17 (24%) of pathogenic CREBBP/EP300 findings in an RSTS cohort, establishing missense as an accepted pathogenic mechanism for CREBBP rather than a gene where missense variants are typically benign, so BP1 does not apply.

BP3N/ANot applicable: missense substitution is not an in-frame indel in a repetitive region.
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_004380.2:c.7299C>A in CREBBP is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_004371.2:p.(Asp2433Glu). 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.
BP6N/ANot applicable: no ClinVar expert-panel benign assertion exists for this exact variant.
Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning
BP6 is restricted to an exact-variant ClinVar expert-panel assertion of Benign or Likely benign. The exact variant search returned no ClinVar record, so this prerequisite is absent. Ordinary, aggregate, or non-expert assertions were not used.
Rule
Apply BP6 only for an exact-variant ClinVar expert-panel classification of Benign or Likely benign; do not use ordinary laboratory submissions, aggregate labels, or non-expert assertions.
Evidence considered
ClinVar search for NM_004380.2:c.7299C>A returned no result; therefore no exact-variant expert-panel Benign or Likely benign classification is available to support BP6.
BP7N/ANot applicable: this is a missense substitution, not a synonymous 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_004380.2:c.7299C>A in CREBBP is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_004371.2:p.(Asp2433Glu). 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.

PP3Not met: REVEL score 0.597 falls in the indeterminate zone between the benign-supporting (<=0.290) and pathogenic-supporting (>=0.644) thresholds.
Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning
NM_004380.2:c.7299C>A (p.(Asp2433Glu)) is a missense substitution; no CSPEC/VCEP-specific PP3/BP4 lookup material is available for CREBBP (framework_mode = generic_acmg, cspec.found = false, vcep_materials note = 'no cspec url available'), so generic calibrated computational thresholds apply. REVEL score = 0.597, which falls in the intermediate/indeterminate zone between the ClinGen SVI-calibrated benign-supporting threshold (<=0.290) and pathogenic-supporting threshold (>=0.644) established by Pejaver et al. (PMID:36413997), so REVEL does not reach the supporting threshold required for PP3. BayesDel score (0.0478) is available in prefetch data but no verified published calibration threshold for BayesDel is available to this pipeline, so it is treated as not_available and cannot be used to invoke PP3. SpliceAI max delta score = 0.003 (DS_AG 0.001, DS_AL 0.0, DS_DG 0.003, DS_DL 0.001), far below any splice-impact threshold; the variant is not in a canonical splice consensus region and is annotated as a missense/exonic substitution (canonical_splice_consensus = false), so this negligible score does not support a splice-disruption prediction and therefore cannot support PP3 via the splice-impact path either. No aGVGD data is present in the bundle. Variant is not synonymous, so BP7 does not apply.
REVEL score 0.597 (source_registry key 'revel', local REVEL v1.3 lookup) falls between the ClinGen SVI-calibrated benign-supporting cutoff (<=0.290) and pathogenic-supporting cutoff (>=0.644) per Pejaver et al., PMID:36413997, so it does not meet the threshold required to apply PP3.
SpliceAI max delta score = 0.003 (source_registry key 'spliceai') is negligible and does not support a splice-disruption prediction for this missense variant.
BayesDel score 0.0477783 is present (source_registry key 'bayesdel') but excluded from consideration because no verified published calibration threshold for BayesDel is available to this pipeline.
Still missing
REVEL 0.597 sits in the calibrated intermediate zone and cannot support PP3 at any strength.
No verified BayesDel threshold is available to this pipeline, so BayesDel score cannot be used for PP3.
No gene-specific CREBBP VCEP PP3/BP4 lookup material was available to override the generic calibration.

BP4Not met: REVEL score 0.597 exceeds the benign-supporting threshold of <=0.290.
Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning
Using the same generic calibrated thresholds (no CREBBP-specific VCEP PP3/BP4 lookup is available), REVEL score = 0.597 also fails to reach the benign-supporting threshold (<=0.290) from Pejaver et al. (PMID:36413997), so it cannot support BP4 either -- the score sits in the indeterminate zone, not the benign-predicted zone. BayesDel score (0.0478) is present but is treated as not_available for this pipeline because no verified published calibration threshold has been confirmed, so it cannot be used to invoke BP4. SpliceAI max delta score = 0.003 is very low and consistent with no predicted splice disruption, but this variant is a missense substitution with no canonical splice consensus involvement (canonical_splice_consensus = false) and no indication that a splicing mechanism is plausible for this exonic change; the low SpliceAI score therefore does not constitute an independent affirmative in-silico benign prediction relevant to this variant's primary (missense) consequence, and applying BP4 solely on an uninvoked splice-impact path would not be a genuine, mechanism-relevant application of that sub-path. Variant is not synonymous, so BP7 does not apply.
Rule
ACMG/AMP 2015 generic BP4 (REVEL calibration per PMID:36413997; SpliceAI splice-impact path not mechanistically applicable)
Evidence considered
REVEL score 0.597 (source_registry key 'revel') does not reach the benign-supporting threshold of <=0.290 from the ClinGen SVI REVEL calibration (Pejaver et al., PMID:36413997), so BP4 cannot be applied via the missense in-silico path.
SpliceAI max delta score = 0.003 (source_registry key 'spliceai') indicates no predicted splice disruption but is not applied toward BP4 because the variant is missense with no plausible splicing mechanism (not in canonical splice consensus).
BayesDel score 0.0477783 is present (source_registry key 'bayesdel') but excluded from consideration because no verified published calibration threshold for BayesDel is available to this pipeline.
Still missing
REVEL 0.597 sits in the calibrated intermediate zone and cannot support BP4 at any strength.
No verified BayesDel threshold is available to this pipeline, so BayesDel score cannot be used for BP4.
SpliceAI's negligible score is not being invoked for BP4 because splicing is not a plausible mechanism for this missense, non-splice-region variant.
No gene-specific CREBBP VCEP PP3/BP4 lookup material was available to override the generic calibration.
