Classification rationale
1

The BRCA2 c.8242G>A (p.Gly2748Ser; G2748S) variant has been reported in ClinVar, where the current expert-panel overall classification is uncertain significance, while multiple clinical laboratory submissions classify it as likely pathogenic or pathogenic.

This variant is present at very low frequency in population databases, including gnomAD v2.1 at 3/249070 alleles (AF 1.20e-05; grpmax FAF 9.58e-06) and gnomAD v4.1 at 6/1614064 alleles (AF 3.72e-06), which is below ENIGMA BS1 and BA1 thresholds but means PM2 is not met because the variant is not absent from controls.

In the ENIGMA BRCA2 functional evidence table, this exact variant is assigned PS3 at strong strength based on one calibrated study reported to show a damaging functional effect consistent with pathogenic control variants.

This missense change lies within the BRCA2 DNA-binding domain; BayesDel no-AF is 0.454479, above the ENIGMA PP3 threshold of 0.30, SpliceAI predicts no significant splice effect with a maximum delta score of 0.06, and REVEL is 0.842, supporting a damaging protein effect without predicted splice disruption.
