About MYCN

MYCN is a transcription factor that controls the expression of genes involved in cell growth, division, survival, and metabolism. It is normally active mainly during embryonic development and is largely restricted to cells of the nervous system and a few other tissues. Amplification of MYCN drives cancer, most notably neuroblastoma, and is also seen in medulloblastoma, glioblastoma, and other solid tumors such as breast and small cell lung cancers.

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

No functional assay evidence (published or VCEP-referenced) exists for NM_005378.5:c.368G>T in this case bundle; both PS3 and BS3 are not_assessed rather than not_met/not_applicable because absence of data, not evidence against applicability, is the driver.

MYCN has no ClinGen VCEP specification in this case (cspec.found=false), so generic ACMG/AMP was the only available framework, and even under generic ACMG no qualifying assay data were located to apply.

MYCN has no ClinGen VCEP-specific PP3/BP4 lookup materials in this case; generic ACMG/AMP in-silico evidence rules were applied.

Variant is missense (p.Arg123Leu); REVEL (0.216) and SpliceAI (max delta 0.003) both indicate a non-damaging, non-splice-disrupting prediction, supporting BP4 at supporting strength and precluding PP3.

BayesDel score was available but excluded from PP3/BP4 determination because no verified published calibration threshold could be named for it.

BP7 is not applicable because this is a missense variant, not synonymous.

No applicable MYCN ClinGen CSPEC/VCEP framework was available in the case bundle; generic ACMG/AMP 2015 population criteria were therefore used.

Population data support PM2 at supporting strength and do not support BA1, BS1, or BS2.

Met · 2

PM2 SupportingMet (supporting): absent from gnomAD v2.1, v4.1, and gnomAD-Canada, with zero alleles across 1,599,516. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

PM2 is met at supporting strength. NM_005378.5:c.368G>T (NP_005369.2:p.Arg123Leu) is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD-Canada v1.0 and has zero observed alleles in gnomAD v4.1 across 1,599,516 alleles, including zero homozygotes and zero alleles in each listed ancestry group.

Rule
Generic ACMG/AMP 2015 PM2: variant absent from or extremely rare in population databases; applied as supporting evidence because no applicable MYCN VCEP specification was retrieved.
Evidence considered
  • The variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1.
  • gnomAD v4.1 reports total AC=0, AN=1,599,516, AF=0.0, and total homozygotes=0; the maximum listed ancestry-specific AF is also 0.0.
  • The variant is absent from gnomAD-Canada v1.0.
Sources
BP4 SupportingMet (supporting): REVEL 0.216 meets the <=0.290 benign-supporting threshold, and SpliceAI max delta 0.003 predicts no splice impact. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

No governing VCEP/gene-specific PP3/BP4 lookup material is available for MYCN, so generic ACMG in-silico evidence applies. REVEL score is 0.216 for the missense variant p.(Arg123Leu), which falls at/below the ClinGen SVI-calibrated benign-supporting REVEL threshold (<=0.290) from Pejaver et al. 2022 (PMID 36413997), supporting a benign computational prediction at supporting strength. Independently, SpliceAI predicts no meaningful splice impact (max delta score = 0.003), consistent with no disruption of normal splicing. Both computational lines converge on a benign/non-damaging prediction; per instructions this convergent evidence is applied as a single BP4 code at supporting strength rather than stacked strength. BayesDel is excluded from this determination (no verified published threshold available to this pipeline).

Rule
generic_acmg
Evidence considered
  • REVEL score = 0.216 for NM_005378.5:c.368G>T (p.Arg123Leu), at/below the ClinGen SVI Pejaver et al. 2022 (PMID 36413997) benign-supporting threshold of <=0.290, supporting BP4 at supporting strength.
  • SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact for this variant (max delta score = 0.003; DS_AG=0.0, DS_AL=0.003, DS_DG=0.0, DS_DL=0.0), consistent with no disruption of splicing and supporting BP4.
  • No ClinGen VCEP-specific PP3/BP4 lookup table or gene-specific in-silico framework is available for MYCN in this case (framework_mode = generic_acmg; cspec.found = false), so generic calibrated thresholds were applied instead.
Still missing
  • No gene-specific/VCEP PP3/BP4 lookup spreadsheet available for MYCN to override or refine generic thresholds.
  • BayesDel score present but unusable for PP3/BP4 due to lack of a verified published calibration threshold.

PP3 Not met: REVEL 0.216 is below the 0.644 pathogenic-supporting threshold, and SpliceAI max delta 0.003 predicts no splice impact. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

No governing VCEP/gene-specific PP3/BP4 lookup material is available for MYCN in this case (cspec.found=false; vcep_materials empty), so generic ACMG in-silico evidence applies. NM_005378.5:c.368G>T is a missense variant (NP_005369.2:p.(Arg123Leu)). REVEL score is 0.216, well below the ClinGen SVI-calibrated pathogenic-supporting threshold (>=0.644), so it does not support a damaging prediction. SpliceAI predicts no meaningful splice impact (max delta score = 0.003, far below the 0.2 SpliceAI threshold used to flag potential splicing effects), so the splice-impact path also does not support PP3. BayesDel score (-0.349224) is present in prefetch data but is excluded from consideration: no verified published calibration/threshold for BayesDel is available to this pipeline, so it is treated as not_available for PP3/BP4 regardless of the raw score. No convergent computational evidence supports a deleterious effect on protein function or splicing.

Rule
generic_acmg
Evidence considered
  • REVEL score = 0.216 for NM_005378.5:c.368G>T (p.Arg123Leu), below the ClinGen SVI Pejaver et al. 2022 (PMID 36413997) pathogenic-supporting threshold of >=0.644, so REVEL does not support PP3.
  • SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact for this variant (max delta score = 0.003; DS_AG=0.0, DS_AL=0.003, DS_DG=0.0, DS_DL=0.0), well below the ~0.2 threshold commonly used to flag a potential splicing effect, so the splice-impact path does not support PP3.
  • No ClinGen VCEP-specific PP3/BP4 lookup table or gene-specific in-silico framework is available for MYCN in this case (framework_mode = generic_acmg; cspec.found = false).
Still missing
  • No gene-specific/VCEP PP3/BP4 lookup spreadsheet available for MYCN to override or refine generic thresholds.
  • BayesDel score present but unusable for PP3/BP4 due to lack of a verified published calibration threshold.

BA1 Not met: allele frequency is 0 in 1,599,516 gnomAD v4.1 alleles, far below the >5% stand-alone benign threshold. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

BA1 is not met. The variant has total allele frequency 0 in gnomAD v4.1 (0/1,599,516 alleles), with no observed homozygotes; this is far below the generic ACMG/AMP stand-alone benign threshold of greater than 5%.

Rule
Generic ACMG/AMP 2015 BA1: allele frequency greater than 5% supports stand-alone benign classification; no applicable MYCN VCEP specification was retrieved.
Evidence considered
  • gnomAD v4.1 reports total AC=0, AN=1,599,516, AF=0.0, and total homozygotes=0.
  • The highest observed subpopulation frequency is also 0.0 in African/African American individuals (0/74,962 alleles).
Sources
BS1 Not met: the variant is absent from population databases, not present at a frequency exceeding that expected for a pathogenic MYCN variant. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

BS1 is not met. The variant is absent from the available population datasets rather than present at a frequency greater than expected for a pathogenic MYCN variant. No population frequency, disease prevalence, penetrance, or genetic-model information supports a BS1 threshold artifact.

Rule
Generic ACMG/AMP 2015 BS1: allele frequency is greater than expected for the disorder; absence of the variant does not satisfy BS1.
Evidence considered
  • The variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1.
  • gnomAD v4.1 reports AF=0.0 across 1,599,516 alleles, with 0 homozygotes and AF=0.0 in every listed subpopulation.
  • The variant is absent from gnomAD-Canada v1.0.
Sources
BS2 Not met: no healthy carriers or homozygous healthy individuals were observed in the population datasets. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

BS2 is not met. No healthy individual carrying the variant, and no homozygous healthy individual, is reported in the reviewed population datasets. The available data therefore do not provide the observation required for this benign criterion.

Rule
Generic ACMG/AMP 2015 BS2: observation of the variant in healthy adults, or in healthy individuals homozygous for a recessive disorder, can support benign evidence; no such observation is available here.
Evidence considered
  • The variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD-Canada v1.0.
  • gnomAD v4.1 reports AC=0 and homozygote count=0 overall and across the listed ancestry groups.

PS2 Not assessed: no parental testing or trio data were available to confirm a de novo origin. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

No case-specific parental testing, trio analysis, or other documented evidence establishing that NM_005378.5:c.368G>T (p.Arg123Leu) is de novo was found. PS2 cannot be assessed without confirmed maternity and paternity and verified absence of the variant in both biological parents.

Rule
Generic ACMG/AMP PS2: apply only when the variant is shown to be de novo in a patient with the disease and confirmed maternity and paternity; no applicable MYCN-specific specification was available.
Evidence considered
  • The consolidated case-evidence bundle contains no proband-level parental testing or de novo finding for this variant.
  • The bundle reports no literature PMIDs or variant-specific publications that could provide independent de novo evidence.
Still missing
  • Documented parental genotypes from both biological parents are unavailable.
  • Maternity and paternity confirmation are unavailable.
  • No trio-based or equivalent de novo analysis is available.
PS3 Not assessed: no functional assay data for p.Arg123Leu were identified, so a damaging effect could not be established. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

No functional/biochemical assay data (e.g., MYCN transactivation, proliferation, degron/phosphodegron, or transformation assays) for NM_005378.5:c.368G>T (p.Arg123Leu) were identified in the evidence bundle. No ClinGen VCEP specification exists for MYCN (cspec.found=false; framework_mode=generic_acmg), so no gene-specific functional assay calibration is available either. OncoKB was queried and explicitly returned no variant-specific reviewed functional evidence, only general gene-level context that MYCN is altered by amplification/overexpression in cancer. The literature pass found zero PMIDs for this variant. There is no basis to assess PS3.

Evidence considered
  • OncoKB queried for MYCN R123L: 'OncoKB did not identify variant-specific reviewed functional evidence for this variant; gene-level curated context is available for reviewer follow-up. MYCN, a transcription factor, is altered by amplification and overexpression in a variety of cancer types including in neuroblastoma.' (not_reviewed=true, is_variant_specific=false)
  • literature_pass.json reports total_pmids=0 and note 'No PMIDs found across evidence sources'
  • case_summary.json cspec.found=false; framework_mode=generic_acmg, confirming no MYCN VCEP specification is available to guide functional evidence assessment
Still missing
  • No validated functional assay (in vitro or in vivo) evaluating the effect of p.Arg123Leu on MYCN protein function/stability/transactivation was found
  • No MYCN-specific ClinGen VCEP specification exists to define assay validation criteria or PS3 strength calibration
  • No literature (PMID) identified that studies this specific variant functionally
PS4 Not assessed: no germline case-control or affected-case data exist; the single somatic COSMIC record does not qualify. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

No statistically interpretable germline case-control enrichment, affected-case series, or exact-variant comparison with controls is available for NM_005378.5:c.368G>T (NP_005369.2:p.Arg123Leu). The one somatic COSMIC record is not germline case-control evidence and cannot establish PS4.

Rule
PS4 requires a statistically significant increased frequency of the variant in affected individuals or an affected cohort compared with appropriate controls; a somatic-only record is insufficient.
Evidence considered
  • COSMIC records the exact variant once in somatic cancer (COSV107256617; n=1), but this is not germline case-control evidence and does not meet PS4.
  • The consolidated case-evidence bundle contains no exact-variant germline case-control counts or statistical enrichment result.
Still missing
  • Disease-relevant germline affected-case counts and an appropriate control comparison for the exact variant are unavailable.
PM1 Not assessed: insufficient evidence was available to determine whether p.Arg123Leu lies in a mutational hotspot or critical domain. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

PM1 could not be assessed because its agent did not produce valid output.

  • attempt 3: evidence_refs must contain only source_registry keys
PM3 Not assessed: no affected proband or phase data showing a pathogenic variant in trans were available. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

PM3 cannot be assessed because the consolidated case-evidence bundle contains no affected-proband observations, familial genotype data, phase information, or documented pathogenic variant in trans for NM_005378.5:c.368G>T (MYCN p.Arg123Leu). The absence of a ClinVar record and population-frequency data does not establish PM3.

Rule
Generic ACMG/AMP PM3: pathogenic variants in trans with the variant under evaluation in an affected individual, with strength determined by the number and quality of observations.
Evidence considered
  • The bundle identifies no applicable MYCN-specific VCEP/CSPEC framework and therefore indicates generic ACMG/AMP fallback.
  • The bundle contains no case-level family, phase, affected-proband, or compound-heterozygous observations relevant to PM3.
  • The bundle reports that the variant is absent from ClinVar, but this does not provide PM3 evidence.
Still missing
  • Affected proband(s) with the variant and a recessive MYCN-related phenotype are not documented.
  • No confirmed pathogenic or likely pathogenic allele in trans is documented.
  • No segregation, parental testing, or other phase evidence is available.
PM5 Not assessed: insufficient evidence was available to determine whether a different pathogenic missense occurs at this same codon. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

PM5 could not be assessed because its agent did not produce valid output.

  • attempt 2: evidence_refs must contain only source_registry keys
  • attempt 3: evidence_refs must contain only source_registry keys
PM6 Not assessed: no presumed de novo occurrence was documented. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

No case-specific evidence of a presumed de novo occurrence was found. In the absence of documented parental testing or a reliable de novo report with unconfirmed parentage, PM6 cannot be applied.

Rule
Generic ACMG/AMP PM6: apply only for a presumed de novo variant when maternity and/or paternity has not been confirmed; no applicable MYCN-specific specification was available.
Evidence considered
  • The consolidated case-evidence bundle contains no presumed-de novo observation for NM_005378.5:c.368G>T (p.Arg123Leu).
  • The literature section of the bundle contains no PMIDs or variant-specific reports relevant to PM6.
Still missing
  • No report documents the variant as de novo with incomplete or unconfirmed parental identity/testing.
  • Parental genotypes and parentage information are unavailable.
PP1 Not assessed: no affected relatives or informative meioses were documented, so cosegregation could not be evaluated. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

No affected relatives carrying the variant, informative meioses, or family segregation data were documented. Therefore, cosegregation cannot be evaluated and PP1 is not assessed.

Rule
Generic ACMG/AMP PP1: apply when a variant cosegregates with disease in affected family members; strength may depend on the number of informative meioses, but no segregation data are available and no MYCN-specific specification was retrieved.
Evidence considered
  • The consolidated case-evidence bundle contains no family pedigree, relative genotypes, segregation table, or informative-meiosis count.
  • The bundle provides no variant-specific publication with cosegregation data.
Still missing
  • No informative affected relatives with variant testing are documented.
  • No number of informative meioses is available.
  • Phenotype assessments and variant status for relatives are unavailable.
PP2 Not assessed: insufficient evidence was available on MYCN's rate of benign missense variation. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

PP2 could not be assessed because its agent did not produce valid output.

  • attempt 3: evidence_refs must contain only source_registry keys
PP4 Not assessed: the patient's phenotype and its specificity for MYCN-related disease were not provided. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The consolidated case-evidence bundle does not provide the patient's phenotype, the suspected MYCN-related disorder, or a phenotype-specific likelihood assessment. Gene-level MYCN context and an unreviewed OncoKB summary do not establish a highly specific phenotype for PP4.

Rule
PP4 requires a patient's phenotype or family history that is highly specific for a disease with a single-gene etiology; unavailable or nonspecific phenotype information is insufficient.
Evidence considered
  • OncoKB provides gene-level MYCN context, explicitly lacks variant-specific reviewed evidence, and does not document a patient phenotype or phenotype specificity.
  • The consolidated case-evidence bundle contains no patient phenotype description suitable for PP4 assessment.
Still missing
  • Patient clinical features and the relevant suspected disorder are unavailable.
  • No phenotype-specificity or likelihood assessment is available.
Sources
PP5 Not assessed: no ClinVar expert-panel pathogenic classification exists for this exact variant. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The exact variant has no ClinVar result in the case-evidence bundle. Therefore, no exact-variant ClinVar expert-panel Pathogenic or Likely pathogenic classification is available to trigger PP5.

Rule
Apply PP5 only for an exact-variant ClinVar expert-panel classification of Pathogenic or Likely pathogenic; ordinary submissions, aggregate labels, and non-expert assertions are excluded.
Evidence considered
  • ClinVar search for NM_005378.5:c.368G>T returned no result, so there is no qualifying expert-panel assertion for PP5.
  • Ordinary laboratory submissions, aggregate ClinVar labels, and non-expert assertions would not qualify under the requested PP5 rule.
Still missing

BS3 Not assessed: no functional assay data showing normal activity for p.Arg123Leu were available. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

No functional assay data showing normal/wild-type-like activity for NM_005378.5:c.368G>T (p.Arg123Leu) were identified. As with PS3, no MYCN VCEP specification exists to define validated assays or BS3 calibration, OncoKB found no variant-specific reviewed functional evidence, and the literature pass identified zero PMIDs referencing this variant. There is no basis to assess BS3.

Evidence considered
  • OncoKB queried for MYCN R123L: 'OncoKB did not identify variant-specific reviewed functional evidence for this variant; gene-level curated context is available for reviewer follow-up. MYCN, a transcription factor, is altered by amplification and overexpression in a variety of cancer types including in neuroblastoma.' (not_reviewed=true, is_variant_specific=false)
  • literature_pass.json reports total_pmids=0 and note 'No PMIDs found across evidence sources'
  • case_summary.json cspec.found=false; framework_mode=generic_acmg, confirming no MYCN VCEP specification is available to guide functional evidence assessment

  • No validated functional assay demonstrating normal/benign function for p.Arg123Leu was found
  • No MYCN-specific ClinGen VCEP specification exists to define assay validation criteria or BS3 strength calibration
  • No literature (PMID) identified that studies this specific variant functionally
BS4 Not assessed: no unaffected relatives were tested, so non-segregation could not be evaluated. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

No unaffected relatives were tested or documented as carrying or not carrying the variant, and no family phenotype/genotype data permit evaluation of non-segregation. BS4 cannot be assessed.

Rule
Generic ACMG/AMP BS4: apply when a variant does not segregate with disease in affected members of a family; this requires informative family data, which are absent, and no MYCN-specific specification was retrieved.
Evidence considered
  • The consolidated case-evidence bundle contains no non-segregation analysis, unaffected-relative testing, or family genotype/phenotype data.
  • The bundle contains no variant-specific publication relevant to BS4.
Still missing
  • No unaffected relatives with reliable phenotype assessment and variant testing are documented.
  • No family structure or informative meioses are available.
  • No evidence establishes that the variant fails to segregate with disease.
BP1 Not assessed: insufficient evidence was available to determine whether MYCN loss-of-function is the sole disease mechanism. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

  • attempt 3: evidence_refs must contain only source_registry keys
BP2 Not assessed: no phase or co-occurrence data showing the variant in trans with a benign or in cis with a pathogenic variant were available. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

BP2 cannot be assessed because the consolidated case-evidence bundle contains no genotype-level co-occurrence or phase data showing NM_005378.5:c.368G>T (MYCN p.Arg123Leu) in trans with a benign variant or in cis with a pathogenic variant. The absence of a ClinVar record and population-frequency data does not establish BP2.

Rule
Generic ACMG/AMP BP2: the variant is observed in trans with a pathogenic variant or in cis with a pathogenic variant, when the disease mechanism and phase context support a benign interpretation of the variant under evaluation.
Evidence considered
  • The bundle identifies no applicable MYCN-specific VCEP/CSPEC framework and therefore indicates generic ACMG/AMP fallback.
  • The bundle contains no case-level genotype, co-occurrence, or phase observations relevant to BP2.
  • The bundle reports that the variant is absent from ClinVar, but this does not provide BP2 evidence.
Still missing
  • No documented individual carries the variant with a confirmed benign variant in trans.
  • No documented individual carries the variant in cis with a confirmed pathogenic variant.
  • No parental testing, haplotyping, segregation, or other phase evidence is available.
BP5 Not assessed: no confirmed alternate molecular etiology for the patient's phenotype was provided. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

No confirmed alternate molecular etiology explaining the patient's phenotype is provided. The single somatic COSMIC occurrence is unrelated to establishing an alternate germline diagnosis and cannot establish BP5.

Rule
BP5 requires an alternate molecular basis that explains the phenotype, such as an established pathogenic variant at another locus; an unrelated somatic occurrence is insufficient.
Evidence considered
  • COSMIC documents one somatic occurrence of the exact variant but does not identify an alternate molecular diagnosis for the assessed patient and cannot establish BP5.
  • The consolidated case-evidence bundle contains no confirmed alternate pathogenic variant or alternate molecular explanation for the patient's phenotype.
Still missing
  • Patient phenotype, diagnostic workup, and any confirmed alternate pathogenic variant or molecular explanation are unavailable.
BP6 Not assessed: no ClinVar expert-panel benign classification exists for this exact variant. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The exact variant has no ClinVar result in the case-evidence bundle. Therefore, no exact-variant ClinVar expert-panel Benign or Likely benign classification is available to trigger BP6.

Rule
Apply BP6 only for an exact-variant ClinVar expert-panel classification of Benign or Likely benign; ordinary submissions, aggregate labels, and non-expert assertions are excluded.
Evidence considered
  • ClinVar search for NM_005378.5:c.368G>T returned no result, so there is no qualifying expert-panel assertion for BP6.
  • Ordinary laboratory submissions, aggregate ClinVar labels, and non-expert assertions would not qualify under the requested BP6 rule.
Still missing
  • No exact-variant ClinVar expert-panel Benign or Likely benign assertion is available.

PVS1 N/ANot applicable: missense substitution, so no null-variant mechanism (nonsense-mediated decay, truncation, or splice disruption) 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_005378.5:c.368G>T in MYCN is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_005369.2:p.(Arg123Leu). 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/ANot applicable: missense substitution causes no protein length change, so this in-frame indel/stop-loss criterion does not apply. 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_005378.5:c.368G>T in MYCN is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_005369.2:p.(Arg123Leu). 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.

Reasoning

BP3 (Richards et al. 2015, PMID:25741868) applies to in-frame insertions/deletions located in a repetitive region without a known function. NM_005378.5:c.368G>T in MYCN is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_005369.2:p.(Arg123Leu). 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/ANot applicable: missense substitution, so the silent-variant premise of this criterion does not hold. 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_005378.5:c.368G>T in MYCN is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_005369.2:p.(Arg123Leu). 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.

How the predictions were used

BP4 SupportingMet (supporting): REVEL 0.216 meets the <=0.290 benign-supporting threshold, and SpliceAI max delta 0.003 predicts no splice impact. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

No governing VCEP/gene-specific PP3/BP4 lookup material is available for MYCN, so generic ACMG in-silico evidence applies. REVEL score is 0.216 for the missense variant p.(Arg123Leu), which falls at/below the ClinGen SVI-calibrated benign-supporting REVEL threshold (<=0.290) from Pejaver et al. 2022 (PMID 36413997), supporting a benign computational prediction at supporting strength. Independently, SpliceAI predicts no meaningful splice impact (max delta score = 0.003), consistent with no disruption of normal splicing. Both computational lines converge on a benign/non-damaging prediction; per instructions this convergent evidence is applied as a single BP4 code at supporting strength rather than stacked strength. BayesDel is excluded from this determination (no verified published threshold available to this pipeline).

  • REVEL score = 0.216 for NM_005378.5:c.368G>T (p.Arg123Leu), at/below the ClinGen SVI Pejaver et al. 2022 (PMID 36413997) benign-supporting threshold of <=0.290, supporting BP4 at supporting strength.
  • SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact for this variant (max delta score = 0.003; DS_AG=0.0, DS_AL=0.003, DS_DG=0.0, DS_DL=0.0), consistent with no disruption of splicing and supporting BP4.
  • No ClinGen VCEP-specific PP3/BP4 lookup table or gene-specific in-silico framework is available for MYCN in this case (framework_mode = generic_acmg; cspec.found = false), so generic calibrated thresholds were applied instead.
Still missing
  • No gene-specific/VCEP PP3/BP4 lookup spreadsheet available for MYCN to override or refine generic thresholds.
  • BayesDel score present but unusable for PP3/BP4 due to lack of a verified published calibration threshold.

Reasoning

No governing VCEP/gene-specific PP3/BP4 lookup material is available for MYCN in this case (cspec.found=false; vcep_materials empty), so generic ACMG in-silico evidence applies. NM_005378.5:c.368G>T is a missense variant (NP_005369.2:p.(Arg123Leu)). REVEL score is 0.216, well below the ClinGen SVI-calibrated pathogenic-supporting threshold (>=0.644), so it does not support a damaging prediction. SpliceAI predicts no meaningful splice impact (max delta score = 0.003, far below the 0.2 SpliceAI threshold used to flag potential splicing effects), so the splice-impact path also does not support PP3. BayesDel score (-0.349224) is present in prefetch data but is excluded from consideration: no verified published calibration/threshold for BayesDel is available to this pipeline, so it is treated as not_available for PP3/BP4 regardless of the raw score. No convergent computational evidence supports a deleterious effect on protein function or splicing.
