Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
The BRIP1 c.1171A>G (p.Ile391Val) variant has been reported in ClinVar and is currently classified there as a variant of uncertain significance with single-submitter review status.
2
This variant is very rare in population databases, with gnomAD v2.1 AF 3.99431e-06 (1/250356) and gnomAD v4.1 AF 4.95952e-06 (8/1613060), which are below the 0.1% PM2 threshold.
3
Computational data do not support a damaging effect: SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact with a maximum delta score of 0.00, REVEL is 0.156, and BayesDel is -0.370746.
Final determination:
Generic ACMG/AMP 2015 fallback rules identified both pathogenic and benign evidence, so the overall classification remains Variant of Uncertain Significance because the evidence is conflicting.
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 is a missense substitution, and the generic PVS1 assessment does not place it in a null-variant category such as nonsense, frameshift, or canonical +/-1,2 splice-site change. Although BRIP1 loss of function is an established disease mechanism, available evidence does not support applying PVS1 to c.1171A>G. |

|
| PS1 | Not assessed | No evidence was identified that a different nucleotide change producing the same amino acid substitution, p.(Ile391Val), has already been established as pathogenic or likely pathogenic. |
|
| PS2 | Not assessed | No confirmed de novo occurrence with established maternity and paternity was identified for this variant. |
|
| PS3 | Not assessed | No well-established functional study showing a damaging effect of this specific variant was identified. |
oncokb
|
| PS4 | Not assessed | This variant is reported in ClinVar, but available evidence does not provide exact case counts, case-control enrichment, or a statistically increased prevalence in affected individuals compared with controls. |
clinvar
|
| PM1 | Not met | This variant does not lie in a statistically significant hotspot, and no evidence was identified that codon 391 is a well-established critical functional region without benign variation. |
hotspots
|
| PM2 | Met | This variant is very rare in population databases. In gnomAD v2.1 the allele frequency is 3.99431e-06 (1/250356), and in gnomAD v4.1 the allele frequency is 4.95952e-06 (8/1613060) with grpmax FAF 3.472e-05; all are well below the 0.1% PM2 threshold. |

|
| PM3 | Not assessed | No evidence was identified that this variant was observed in trans with a pathogenic variant in a recessive disease context. |
|
| PM4 | N/A | This is not a protein length-changing variant such as an in-frame insertion, in-frame deletion, or stop-loss variant. |
|
| PM5 | Not assessed | No evidence was identified that another missense change at codon 391 has been established as pathogenic or likely pathogenic. |
|
| PM6 | Not assessed | No presumed de novo occurrence was identified for this variant. |
|
| PP1 | Not assessed | No segregation data were identified for this variant in affected relatives. |
|
| PP2 | Not assessed | Available evidence does not establish that BRIP1 is a gene in which pathogenic missense variation is a common mechanism and benign missense variation is uncommon for this specific ACMG criterion. |
|
| PP3 | Not met | Available computational evidence does not support a damaging effect. SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact with a maximum delta score of 0.00, REVEL is 0.156, and BayesDel is -0.370746, which do not support pathogenic computational evidence for this missense change. |

|
| PP4 | Not assessed | No highly specific phenotype or family history attributable to this exact variant was identified. |
|
| PP5 | Not assessed | ClinVar lists this variant as uncertain significance with single-submitter review status, which does not provide a qualifying pathogenic reputable-source assertion for PP5. |
clinvar
|
| BA1 | Not met | Population frequency does not meet the benign stand-alone threshold. The highest observed population value in the reviewed gnomAD data is far below the 1% BA1 threshold. |
gnomad_v2
gnomad_v4
|
| BS1 | Not met | Population frequency does not reach the benign strong threshold. The highest observed population frequency in the reviewed gnomAD data is 8.01047e-05 in gnomAD v4.1, which is well below the 0.3% BS1 threshold. |

|
| BS2 | Not assessed | No evidence was identified showing this variant in healthy adult individuals in a manner sufficient for BS2 assessment. |
|
| BS3 | Not assessed | No well-established functional study showing normal protein function for this specific variant was identified. |
oncokb
|
| BS4 | Not assessed | No non-segregation data were identified for this variant. |
|
| BP1 | Not assessed | This is a missense variant, but available evidence in the reviewed materials does not establish that BRIP1 disease is caused predominantly by truncating variants to the extent required for BP1 application. |
pvs1_gene_context
|
| BP2 | Not assessed | No evidence was identified that this variant occurs in trans with a pathogenic variant for a dominant disorder, or in cis with a pathogenic variant in a way that supports BP2. |
|
| BP3 | N/A | This is not an in-frame insertion or deletion in a repetitive region. |
|
| BP4 | Met | Multiple computational findings support no meaningful impact. SpliceAI predicts no significant splice effect with a maximum delta score of 0.00, REVEL is 0.156, and BayesDel is -0.370746, which together support a benign computational interpretation rather than a damaging one. |

|
| BP5 | Not assessed | No alternate molecular explanation was identified that would make this variant an incidental finding in the evaluated disease context. |
|
| BP6 | Not assessed | No qualifying benign reputable-source assertion was identified. ClinVar reports this variant as uncertain significance rather than benign or likely benign. |
clinvar
|
| BP7 | N/A | This is a missense variant, not a synonymous or deep intronic change, so BP7 does not apply. |
