Uncertain Significance for pulmonary arterial hypertension. Applied ACMG criteria (verbatim):
PM2_Supporting PM1_met PP3_met
Curation rationale (ClinGen, verbatim)
The NM_001204.7(BMPR2) c.1175T>C (p.Val392Ala) variant is located in exon 9 of the BMPR2 gene and is absent from gnomAD v2.1.1 (controls) and v4.1.0 (PM2_supporting). The variant is located in the functionally relevant catalytic kinase domain (PM1_met) but is not a critical or non-critical residue. The variant has been reported in only one individual with IPAH (PMID: 21737554 and 20002458) (PS4 not met). The REVEL score for the variant is 0.954, which is greater than the PH VCEP threshold of >= 0.75, and the AlphaMissense score is 0.9795, indicating pathogenicity (PP3_met). No segregation or parental data were found (PP1 and PS2 not evaluated). No other amino acid change at the same position has been reported for PAH (PS1 and PM5 not evaluated). No functional evidence was found (PS3 not evaluated). 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: PM2_supporting, PM1, PP3 (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.
Population frequency
Absent from gnomAD v4.1. Not observed in any sequenced alleles — a rarity signal (ACMG PM2-supporting), not evidence of pathogenicity on its own.
