AlphaMissense predicts likely pathogenic (score 0.9904) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

BMPR2 p.Tyr407Ser

Q: How is Idiopathic/heritable pulmonary arterial hypertension inherited?

Typically Autosomal dominant, Autosomal recessive (Orphanet). A genetic counselor can assess individual risk for a family.

Curation rationale (ClinGen, verbatim)

The c.1220A>C (p. Tyr407Ser) variant is a missense variant located in exon 9 of the BMPR2 gene, predicted to cause substitution of tyrosine to serine at amino acid position 407. The variant is present in the conserved catalytic kinase domain but without functional evidence indicating a critical or non-critical amino acid residue (PM1_moderate). The variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1.1 controls and v4.1 (PM2_supporting). The REVEL prediction algorithm score is 0.981 and AlphaMissense is 0.9904 indicating pathogenicity (PP3_met). The variant has been reported in only one individual with PAH (PMID: 26387786) (PS4 not met). PS2 was not assessed due to lack of paternity data. No functional studies have been conducted for this variant (PS3 not assessed). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as a variant of uncertain significance for pulmonary arterial hypertension based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen Pulmonary Hypertension VCEP: PM1_moderate, PM2_supporting, PP3_supporting (VCEP specification version 1.1.0, 1/18/2024).

ClinVar classifies this uncertain; the computational predictors unanimously lean damaging — a triage signal, not a reclassification

AlphaMissense carries the ACMG weight for missense; REVEL and SaProt are independent agreement signals.
