Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
The BRCA2 NM_000059.4:c.2353A>G (p.(Ile785Val), p.(I785V)) variant has been reported in ClinVar, with predominantly uncertain significance submissions and one likely benign submission.
2
This variant is present in gnomAD v2.1 at AF 1.06298e-05 (3/282226 alleles) with grpmax FAF 1.082e-05, which is below ENIGMA BA1 and BS1 thresholds and also means the variant is not absent from controls for PM2.
3
In a published mouse embryonic stem cell-based assay, I785V was reported as functionally indistinguishable from wild-type BRCA2; however, this variant was not identified with a preassigned PS3 or BS3 code in the ENIGMA curated functional table, so the functional evidence remains for manual review.
4
This missense change lies outside the BRCA2 PALB2-binding and DNA-binding domains used for ENIGMA missense pathogenicity assessment, SpliceAI predicts no splice impact (max delta 0.00), BayesDel is -0.394429, and REVEL is 0.16, supporting BP1_Strong and arguing against PP3.
Final determination:
Likely Benign based on BP1_Strong under ENIGMA BRCA1/BRCA2 Table 3, which allows one strong benign criterion when multiple evidence types contribute to that code.
Criteria assessment
ACMG/AMP criteria review
Criteria shown when status is available
All criteria require review: For research and educational purposes only.
| Criterion | Status | Rationale | Evidence used |
|---|---|---|---|
| PVS1 | N/A | This missense variant does not fall into the BRCA2 null-variant or splice-consensus categories used for PVS1, and the generic PVS1 scaffold states that it is not a nonsense, frameshift, or canonical ±1,2 splice variant. |
cspec
pvs1_gene_context
pvs1_variant_assessment
|
| PS1 | Not assessed | No previously classified pathogenic or likely pathogenic reference variant producing the same amino acid change or the same predicted splice effect was identified in the retrieved evidence, so PS1 was not applied. |
cspec
|
| PS2 | N/A | This criterion is designated not applicable for BRCA2 in the ENIGMA specification. |
cspec
|
| PS3 | Not met | A published mouse embryonic stem cell-based assay reported I785V as functionally indistinguishable from wild-type BRCA2, which does not support a damaging functional effect. The variant was also not identified in the ENIGMA curated functional table as a PS3-coded variant. |

cspec
|
| PS4 | Not met | No case-control study or ENIGMA multifactorial dataset entry was identified showing a statistically significant enrichment of this variant in affected individuals compared with controls, so PS4 was not met. |
cspec
|
| PM1 | N/A | This criterion is designated not applicable for BRCA2 in the ENIGMA specification. |
cspec
|
| PM2 | Not met | This variant is present in gnomAD v2.1 with 3/282226 alleles (AF 1.06298e-05; grpmax FAF 1.082e-05), so it is not absent from controls and does not meet ENIGMA PM2_Supporting. |
cspec
gnomad_v2
|
| PM3 | Not assessed | No evidence was identified that this variant was observed in trans with another BRCA2 variant in a proband with BRCA2-related Fanconi anemia, so PM3 was not applied. |
cspec
|
| PM4 | N/A | This criterion is designated not applicable for BRCA2 in the ENIGMA specification. |
cspec
|
| PM5 | N/A | In the BRCA2 ENIGMA specification, PM5 is used for protein-truncating variants already annotated with PVS1. This missense variant does not fit that use case. |
cspec
|
| PM6 | N/A | This criterion is designated not applicable for BRCA2 in the ENIGMA specification. |
cspec
|
| PP1 | Not assessed | No quantitative co-segregation data were identified for this variant, so PP1 was not applied. |
cspec
|
| PP2 | N/A | This criterion is designated not applicable for BRCA2 in the ENIGMA specification. |
cspec
|
| PP3 | Not met | This missense change is outside the BRCA2 PALB2-binding domain (aa 10-40) and DNA-binding region (aa 2481-3186) used for ENIGMA missense PP3. SpliceAI predicts no splice effect (max delta score 0.00), BayesDel is -0.394429, and REVEL is 0.16, so the available computational evidence does not support PP3. |

cspec
|
| BA1 | Not met | The gnomAD v2.1 grpmax FAF is 1.082e-05, which is well below the ENIGMA BA1 threshold of 0.001, so BA1 is not met. |

gnomad_v2

| BS1 | Not met | The gnomAD v2.1 grpmax FAF is 1.082e-05, which is below the ENIGMA BS1_Supporting threshold of 0.00002 and the BS1 threshold of 0.0001, so BS1 is not met. |
cspec
gnomad_v2
|
| BS2 | Not assessed | No point-based evidence was identified showing this variant in individuals without features of BRCA2-related Fanconi anemia, so BS2 was not applied. |
cspec
|
| BS3 | Not assessed | A published mouse embryonic stem cell-based assay reported I785V as functionally indistinguishable from wild-type BRCA2, which is consistent with a benign effect. However, this variant was not identified in the ENIGMA curated functional table with a preassigned BS3 code, so BS3 was left for manual review rather than applied here. |

| BS4 | Not assessed | No quantitative lack-of-segregation evidence was identified for this variant, so BS4 was not applied. |

|
| BP1 | Met | This missense variant is outside the BRCA2 clinically important domains specified by ENIGMA for missense pathogenicity assessment (PALB2-binding aa 10-40; DNA-binding aa 2481-3186), and SpliceAI predicts no splice impact (max delta score 0.00). This supports BP1_Strong. |

| BP3 | N/A | This criterion is designated not applicable for BRCA2 in the ENIGMA specification. |
cspec
|
| BP4 | N/A | For BRCA2, ENIGMA BP4 applies to missense variants inside specified clinically important domains when BayesDel is ≤0.18 and SpliceAI is ≤0.1. Although this variant has no predicted splice impact (SpliceAI 0.00), a low BayesDel score (-0.394429), and a low REVEL score (0.16), it lies outside the specified domains, so BP4 is not the applicable benign computational code. |

| BP7 | Not assessed | This is a missense variant, and no RNA study showing a normal transcript outcome was identified. Computational splice prediction alone does not justify BP7 here, so BP7 was not applied. |
