Original ACMG Summary Same amino acid change as a previously established pathogenic variant regardless of nucleotide change. Example: Val->Leu caused by either G>C or G>T in the same codon. Caveat: Beware of changes that impact splicing rather than at the amino acid/protein level. Stand Alone Very Strong Strong Same amino acid change as a previously established pathogenic variant regardless of nucleotide change. Applicable for observed analogous residue positions in SOS1 and SOS2. Modification Type: Analogous Gene Moderate Supporting Instructions: Same amino acid change as a previously established pathogenic variant regardless of nucleotide change.

Original ACMG Summary The prevalence of the variant in affected individuals is significantly increased compared to the prevalence in controls. Note 1: Relative risk (RR) or odds ratio (OR), as obtained from case-control studies, is >5.0 and the confidence interval around the estimate of RR or OR does not include 1.0. See manuscript for detailed guidance. Note 2: In instances of very rare variants where case-control studies may not reach statistical significance, the prior observation of the variant in multiple unrelated patients with the same phenotype, and its absence in controls, may be used as moderate level of evidence. Stand Alone Very Strong Strong ≥5 points. Modification Type: Disease-specific Moderate ≥3 points. Modification Type: Strength Supporting ≥1 points. Modification Type: Strength Instructions: Strength adjustment using point-based scoring for autosomal dominant cases with phenotypic specifications: full points awarded with RASopathy phenotypes, reduced points applicable to cases with minimal phenotypic information (i.e. prenatal cases, cases with a clinical order of a RASopathy panel without clinical information, and cases with limited clinical information in other global tests (such as WES)).

Original ACMG Summary Novel missense change at an amino acid residue where a different missense change determined to be pathogenic has been seen before. Example: Arg156His is pathogenic; now you observe Arg156Cys. Caveat: Beware of changes that impact splicing rather than at the amino acid/protein level. Stand Alone Very Strong Strong ≥2 different [likely] pathogenic residues changes at the same codon observed in ≥5 probands. Modification Type: Analogous Gene,Strength Moderate 1 [likely] pathogenic residue change at the same codon observed in ≥5 probands. Modification Type: Analogous Gene,Disease-specific Supporting Instructions: Applicable for observed analogous residue positions in SOS1 and SOS2. PM1 and PM5 may be used in conjunction at moderate levels, however, PM1 may not be applied if PM5_Strong is applied to avoid overweighting. Not Applicable Comments: Previously established variant must be established as pathogenic per these criteria. Amino acid changes of variants should be concordant with pathogenicity based on how conservative or non-conservative (within the context of amino acid chain groupings) the residue change is relative to the known pathogenic residue changes. This evidence rule can also be used for pathogenic missense variants seen in the same analogous residue position in highly analogous groupings below: Group 1: HRAS, NRAS, KRAS Group 2: MAP2K1, MAP2K2 Group 3: SOS1, SOS2 This rule should not be used as independent criteria for calculating pathogenicity in conjunction with PM1 if the amino acid residue being interrogated is explicitly designated as a “mutational hot-spot”. For example, Gly12 in HRAS is listed as a hot-spot for PM1 usage. In these situations, only PM1 should be used when combining criteria for final variant classification in order to avoid premature designation of a likely pathogenic classification in the absence of other evidence for pathogenicity.

Original ACMG Summary Multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect on the gene or gene product (conservation, evolutionary, splicing impact, etc.). Caveat: As many in silico algorithms use the same or very similar input for their predictions, each algorithm should not be counted as an independent criterion. PP3 can be used only once in any evaluation of a variant. Stand Alone Very Strong Strong Moderate Supporting For missense variants: REVEL ≥ 0.7. For splicing impact, predicted outcome must match disease mechanism. Modification Type: Disease-specific Instructions: 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 -4 Points. Modification Type: Strength Moderate Supporting -1 Point. Modification Type: Strength Instructions: Strength adjustment using point-based scoring based on phenotypic specifications. Phenotypic specifications: based on healthy homozygote or heterozygote individuals, reduced points for apparently unaffected heterozygous individuals, applicable to parent or sibling samples during clinical family evaluations. Not Applicable Comments: Due to variable expressivity and severity, extensive clinical workup for RASopathy spectrum features is warranted, thus general population data should not be used for this criterion. Clinical laboratories are encouraged to accumulate more than 3 instances of well phenotyped family members before applying this strong criterion.

Original ACMG Summary Lack of segregation in affected members of a family. Caveat: The presence of phenocopies for common phenotypes (i.e. cancer, epilepsy) can mimic lack of segregation among affected individuals. Also, families may have more than one pathogenic variant contributing to an autosomal dominant disorder, further confounding an apparent lack of segregation. Stand Alone Very Strong Strong Requires only one informative meiosis. Modification Type: General recommendation Moderate Supporting Instructions: Lack of segregation in affected members of a family. Not Applicable Comments: Requires only one informative meiosis and does not require an additional piece of supporting evidence to classify variant as likely benign.

Original ACMG Summary Missense variant in a gene for which primarily truncating variants are known to cause disease. Stand Alone Very Strong Strong Moderate Supporting This rule has contraindications for use with RASopathies.
