In addition, we propose a sub-classification scheme for variants of uncertain significance (VUS) according to their proximity either towards the "likely pathogenic" or "likely benign" classes. We also conceived a pathogenicity potential criterion (P_POT) as a proxy for segregation cr...
Herein, we propose a general variant classification framework that takes into account the continuum of clinical phenotypes, the continuum of the variants’ genetic effects, and the different pathological roles of the implicated genes, while maximally complying with ACMG guidelines. To this end, we opt...
two sets of criteria: one for classification of pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants and one for classification of benign or likely benign variants (Table 4). Each pathogenic criterion is weighted as very strong (PVS1), strong (PS1-4); moderate (PM1-6), or supporting (PP1-5), and ea...
ResultsThe concordance rate of variant classification between the guidelines was 72.9%(43/59). The 13.6%(8/59) of variants were upgraded and 13.6% (8/59) of variants downgraded in the classifications of the 2018 HL-EP guideline. A couple of rules saw significant differences between the guide...

The ACMG guidelines classify genetic variants into five categories: pathogenic, likely pathogenic, uncertain significance, likely benign, and benign. This classification is based on a combination of clinical evidence, population data, functional studies, and computational predictions. To interpret a genetic...

The ACMG guidelines serve as a comprehensive, evidence-based framework for the interpretation and reporting of genetic variants in clinical practice. They embody rigorous, multidimensional standards to ensure accurate diagnosis, risk assessment, and informed medical decision-making. 1. **Classification Syst...
Functional evaluation allows ACMG/AMP-based re-classification of CNGA3 variants associated with achromatopsia 研究目的:CNGA3编码锥体光感受器环核苷酸门控离子通道的主要亚基,是色盲的主要疾病相关基因之一。大多数CNGA3变异是错义变异,大多数在功能上未被表征,因此阻碍了遗传诊断。鉴于潜在的基因治疗,客观的变异致病...
Frameshift type mutations, such as this one, constitute very strong pathogenic criteria according to the ACMG classification of sequencing variants, because they modify the length of the protein by inserting premature stop codons with the shift of the reading frame; therefore, it is usually related ...
