Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
The BRCA2 c.4757C>T (p.Thr1586Ile) variant has been reported in ClinVar as likely benign by one clinical laboratory.
2
This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD-Canada and is present only once in gnomAD v4.1 (1/1,613,958 alleles; AF 6.20e-07), which is far below ENIGMA benign frequency thresholds but does not meet the requirement for complete absence from controls.
3
No variant-specific functional assay result for p.(Thr1586Ile) was identified in the reviewed BRCA2 ENIGMA functional resources.
4
Computational evidence does not support a damaging effect: p.(Thr1586Ile) lies outside the BRCA2 clinically important domains used for ENIGMA missense interpretation, SpliceAI shows a maximum delta score of 0.01, BayesDel no-AF is -0.443818, and REVEL is 0.182, supporting BP1_Strong and not supporting PP3.
Final determination:
BP1_Strong alone does not meet the ENIGMA Table 3 threshold for likely benign or benign classification; therefore the variant is classified as uncertain significance.
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 | Not met | This missense variant does not create a premature termination codon, frameshift, or canonical ±1,2 splice-site change, so the BRCA2 PVS1 framework is not met. |

|
| PS1 | Not assessed | No reviewed evidence was identified showing that another nucleotide change causing the same amino acid substitution has already been classified as pathogenic or likely pathogenic under the BRCA2 ENIGMA framework. |

cspec
|
| PS3 | Not assessed | No variant-specific damaging functional study for p.(Thr1586Ile) was identified in the reviewed BRCA2 ENIGMA functional resources, so PS3 cannot be applied. |

| PM5 | N/A | For BRCA2, PM5 is repurposed for truncating or protein-termination-codon logic rather than classic same-residue missense comparison, and this variant is missense. |
