Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
NM_000059.3:c.3069_3074del (p.Asn1023_Ile1024del) is an in-frame deletion of 6 bp in BRCA2 exon 11, removing two amino acids outside the ENIGMA-defined clinically important functional domains.
2
BP1_Strong is applied: the variant is an in-frame deletion located outside the PALB2 binding domain (aa 10-40) and DNA binding domain (aa 2481-3186), and SpliceAI predicts no splicing impact (delta = 0.00).
3
No other pathogenic or benign criteria are met. PVS1 is not applicable to this in-frame intra-exonic deletion under ENIGMA Table 4. PM2 is not met as the variant is present in gnomAD population controls (v2.1: 2/281,622 alleles; v4.1: 7/1,613,238). PP3 is not met as the variant is outside functional domains and SpliceAI shows no splicing impact. PP4 and BP5 are not met as the variant is absent from the Li et al. 2020 clinical-history LR table. BA1 and BS1 are not met as gnomAD FAF (1.75e-05) is below both thresholds.
4
With a single BP1_Strong criterion and no other criteria met in either direction, the variant does not reach the ENIGMA Likely Benign threshold (requires Strong + Supporting benign, Strong + Moderate benign, or Moderate + Supporting benign). The variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
Final determination:
ENIGMA Table 3 Likely Benign: 1 Strong (Benign) criterion qualifies as Likely Benign when supported by multiple independent evidence types (domain architecture + computational splicing prediction).
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 | NM_000059.3:c.3069_3074del is an in-frame deletion of 6 bp in BRCA2 exon 11, resulting in deletion of two amino acids (p.Asn1023_Ile1024del). ENIGMA PVS1 criteria are restricted to null variants (nonsense, frameshift, canonical ±1,2 splice site, initiation codon, or whole-exon deletion). This in-frame intra-exonic deletion does not qualify as a null variant under ENIGMA Table 4 specifications. No downgrade or alternative PVS1 strength applies. |

|
| PS1 | N/A | ENIGMA PS1 applies only to missense substitutions sharing the same residue as a previously classified pathogenic missense variant, or to exonic/intronic variants with the same predicted splicing impact as a previously classified pathogenic variant. This is an in-frame deletion, not a missense substitution or splicing variant. |
|
| PS2 | N/A | ENIGMA specification marks PS2 as Not Applicable. |
|
| PS3 | Not met | Variant is not listed in ENIGMA Specifications Table 9 (calibrated functional assay results for BRCA2). No variant-specific functional data from calibrated mammalian studies meeting ENIGMA PS3 thresholds were identified. Shi et al. (2025, PMID:40664060) performed in silico splicing analysis only for this variant (no splicing impact) and did not conduct variant-specific wet-lab functional assays; their functional validation was limited to the BRCA2 p.W2619C variant. |

| PS4 | Not met | ENIGMA PS4 requires a case-control study demonstrating significantly increased prevalence in affected individuals versus controls (p≤0.05 and OR≥4, lower CI excludes 2.0). No such case-control study was identified for this variant. The variant has been observed in gnomAD population controls (2/281,622 alleles in v2.1; 7/1,613,238 in v4.1) and in one breast cancer patient in Shi et al. (2025), but no formal case-control comparison meeting ENIGMA thresholds is available. |

| PS5 | N/A | ENIGMA specification marks PP5 as Not Applicable; PS5 follows the same logic as the generic ACMG/AMP counterpart to PP5. |
|
| PM1 | N/A | ENIGMA specification marks PM1 as Not Applicable. |
|
| PM2 | Not met | ENIGMA PM2_Supporting requires absence from gnomAD v2.1 (non-cancer, exome only subset) and gnomAD v3.1 (non-cancer) in an outbred population. This variant is present in gnomAD v2.1 (2/281,622 alleles, AF=7.1e-06) and gnomAD v4.1 (7/1,613,238 alleles, AF=4.3e-06). The variant is not absent from population controls. |

|
| PM5 | N/A | ENIGMA PM5 is repurposed for protein termination codon (PTC) variants only, applied as additional weight for PTC variants already annotated as PVS1. This is an in-frame deletion (p.Asn1023_Ile1024del), not a PTC variant. PM5 classic same-residue missense logic also does not apply (not a missense substitution). |

| PP1 | Not met | ENIGMA PP1 requires quantitative co-segregation analysis with likelihood ratio ≥2.08:1 (Supporting), ≥4.3:1 (Moderate), or ≥18.7:1 (Strong). No co-segregation data are available for this variant. |
|
| PP2 | N/A | ENIGMA specification marks PP2 as Not Applicable. |
|
| PP3 | Not met | ENIGMA PP3 applies to: (a) in-frame deletions inside a clinically important functional domain with BayesDel ≥0.30, or (b) variants with SpliceAI ≥0.2 irrespective of location. This variant at amino acids 1023-1024 is outside the ENIGMA-defined clinically important functional domains (PALB2 binding domain aa 10-40; DNA binding domain aa 2481-3186). SpliceAI max delta = 0.00, well below the 0.2 threshold. Neither condition is met. |

| PP4 | Not met | ENIGMA PP4 requires clinical-history likelihood ratio ≥2.08:1 from the Li et al. 2020 (PMID:31853058) BRCA2 clinical-history LR table. The variant NM_000059.3:c.3069_3074del is not listed in this table. A related variant c.3069delC is present (LR=0.79, neutral zone) but this is a different variant and does not provide evidence for c.3069_3074del. |

| BS4 | Not met | ENIGMA BS4 requires lack of segregation in affected family members with likelihood ratio ≤0.48:1 (Supporting), ≤0.23:1 (Moderate), or ≤0.05:1 (Strong). No segregation data are available for this variant. |
|
| BP1 | Met | ENIGMA BP1_Strong applies to in-frame deletions outside a clinically important functional domain with no splicing predicted (SpliceAI ≤0.1). This variant is an in-frame deletion removing amino acids 1023-1024, which lies outside both ENIGMA-defined clinically important functional domains for BRCA2 (PALB2 binding domain aa 10-40; DNA binding domain aa 2481-3186). SpliceAI max delta score = 0.00, confirming no predicted splicing impact. Both conditions for BP1_Strong are satisfied. |
