Likely Benign for hereditary thrombocytopenia and hematologic cancer predisposition syndrome. Applied ACMG criteria (verbatim):

PM2_Supporting BP7 BP4

Curation rationale (ClinGen, verbatim)

NM_001754.5(RUNX1):c.879T>A (p.Ser293=) is a synonymous variant which has a SpliceAI score ≤ 0.20 (0.01) (BP4). This variant has a SpliceAI score ≤ 0.20 (0.01) and evolutionary conservation prediction algorithms predict the site as not being conserved (PhyloP score ≤ 2.0 (-2.04) (BP7). This variant is completely absent from all population databases with at least 20x coverage for RUNX1 (PM2_Supporting). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely benign. ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the Myeloid Malignancy Variant Curation Expert Panel for RUNX1: BP4, BP7, PM2_supporting.

Computational evidence

Protein change
Missense predictors do not apply to this variant type; conservation carries the signal.
Splicing
SpliceAI	<0.2	no splice effect predicted · four deltas, not one · how we know
Constraint at this position
Conservation	phyloP -0.6	GERP -5.6
Overall
CADD	4.028	PHRED · no single calibrated threshold — expert panels disagree
