Original ACMG Summary Null variant (nonsense, frameshift, canonical +/−1 or 2 splice sites, initiation codon, single or multi-exon deletion) in a gene where loss of function (LOF) is a known mechanism of disease. Caveats: • Beware of genes where LOF is not a known disease mechanism (e.g. GFAP, MYH7). • Use caution interpreting LOF variants at the extreme 3’ end of a gene. • Use caution with splice variants that are predicted to lead to exon skipping but leave the remainder of the protein intact. • Use caution in the presence of multiple transcripts.

Original ACMG Summary Multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect on the gene or gene product (conservation, evolutionary, splicing impact, etc.).

Stand Alone Very Strong Strong Moderate Patient's phenotype meets consensus clinical diagnostic (Curaçao) criteria for HHT, and sequencing and large deletion/duplication analysis was performed for both ENG and ACVRL1 with any other identified variants ruled out. Modification Type: Disease-specific,Strength Supporting Instructions: PP4_Moderate cannot be applied to variants that meet BS1_Supporting/BS1/BA1 criteria. If PP4_Moderate can be applied to a patient, they cannot be included in proband counting (PS4). See HHT phenotype document in attachments for information regarding Curacao phenotype requirements.

Original ACMG Summary A synonymous variant for which splicing prediction algorithms predict no impact to the splice consensus sequence nor the creation of a new splice site AND the nucleotide is not highly conserved. Stand Alone Very Strong Strong Moderate Supporting A synonymous or intronic variant for which SpliceAI predicts no impact to the splice consensus sequence nor the creation of a new splice site. Can be used together with BP4 evidence. Modification Type: Disease-specific Instructions: For synonymous and intronic variants: SpliceAI score ≤0.1. Note: If no causative variant is found in ENG or ACVRL1, and the patient's clinical presentation and/or family history is highly suspicious for HHT, be careful to not dismiss intronic variants or synonymous variants in the last nucleotide of the exon based on computational predictions. Example 1: ENG c.219G>A; p.Thr73= is not predicted to significantly alter splicing (SpliceAI: 0.02) and the nucleotide is weakly conserved. However, this variant was later shown to cause exon skipping (PMID: 17384219, ARUP Laboratories). Example 2: SpliceAI does not predict splicing effects for some deep intronic ACVRL1 intron 9 CT rich hotspot variants (PMID: 30244195). Therefore, variants that create a new 'AG' cryptic splice site in this region, should not be ruled out based on SpliceAI prediction alone. Not Applicable
