The BRCA2 c.5946del (p.(Ser1982ArgfsTer22)) variant has been observed in somatic cancers in COSMIC (COSV66447676, n=10) and has been reported in ClinVar as pathogenic with expert-panel review by the ClinGen ENIGMA BRCA1/2 Variant Curation Expert Panel.
clinvar ↗ PMID:10417300 ↗ PMID:11466700 ↗This variant is present in population databases, including gnomAD v2.1 at AF 0.000276509 (78/282088 alleles) and gnomAD v4.1 at AF 0.000139416 (225/1613878 alleles), with highest frequency in the Ashkenazi Jewish population; therefore it is not absent from controls and does not meet PM2.
gnomad_v2 ↗ gnomad_v4 ↗ cspec ↗Clinical-history evidence supports pathogenicity: in the BRCA2 likelihood-ratio dataset, c.5946delT has an LR of 31.79 from 149 probands, exceeding the ENIGMA PP4_Strong threshold of 18.7.
PMID:31853058 ↗ cspec ↗Computational and predicted consequence data show a frameshift leading to p.(Ser1982ArgfsTer22), while SpliceAI predicts no additional splice alteration (max delta 0.00); under the BRCA2 ENIGMA exon-specific truncating-variant framework, exon 11 supports PVS1 and PM5_Strong for this protein-truncating variant.
