Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
Final determination:
Under ENIGMA BRCA2 v1.2 Table 3, a single Supporting benign criterion (BP5) with zero other met criteria matches no Likely Benign, Benign, Likely Pathogenic, or Pathogenic combination rule and defaults to Uncertain Significance.

All criteria require review: For research and educational purposes only.
| Criterion | Status | Rationale | Evidence used |
|---|---|---|---|
| PVS1 | N/A | PVS1 is not applicable for missense variants under ENIGMA BRCA2 v1.2 specifications. PVS1 is reserved for null variants (nonsense, frameshift, canonical ±1,2 splice sites, initiation codon, or exon deletions). NM_000059.4:c.8386C>T is a missense substitution (p.Pro2796Ser). |

|
| PS1 | Not met | No previously classified pathogenic missense variant at codon 2796 has been identified. ENIGMA PS1 requires a same-amino-acid change as a previously classified pathogenic variant, or same predicted splicing impact as a classified pathogenic variant. No comparator variant at this codon was found. |

| PS2 | N/A | ENIGMA BRCA2 v1.2 specification marks PS2 as Not Applicable. |

|
| PS3 | Not met | NM_000059.4:c.8386C>T is not listed in ENIGMA Specifications Table 9 (curated BRCA2 functional assay results). No calibrated mammalian functional studies demonstrating a damaging effect on protein function are available for this variant. OncoKB reports Unknown Oncogenic Effect with no variant-specific functional evidence. |

| PS4 | Not assessed | No case-control data meeting ENIGMA PS4 thresholds (p ≤ 0.05 and OR ≥ 4) are available for this variant. No case-control studies specific to NM_000059.4:c.8386C>T were identified in the literature. |

| PS5 | N/A | Skipped per adjudication instructions — trivially not applicable. |
|
| PM1 | N/A | ENIGMA BRCA2 v1.2 specification explicitly marks PM1 as Not Applicable for BRCA2 variants. Domain-level assessment is instead captured through PP3/BP4/BP1 bioinformatic rules based on location within the DNA binding domain (aa 2481-3186). |
cspec
|
| PM2 | Not met | Under ENIGMA BRCA2 v1.2, PM2 (Supporting only) requires absence from controls in gnomAD outbred populations. NM_000059.4:c.8386C>T is present in gnomAD v2.1 (4/251,442 alleles; grpmax FAF = 1.122e-05) and gnomAD v4.1 (28/1,613,960 alleles). The variant is not absent from population controls. |

| PM5 | N/A | ENIGMA BRCA2 v1.2 repurposes PM5 exclusively for protein termination codon (PTC) variants in exons where a proven pathogenic PTC variant has been seen (PM5_PTC). NM_000059.4:c.8386C>T is a missense variant (p.Pro2796Ser), not a PTC/nonsense variant. Classic same-residue missense PM5 is not applicable under this VCEP framework. PM5_N/A is not assigned to exon 19 in Specifications Table 4, but PM5_PTC applies only to truncating variants. |

| PM6 | N/A | ENIGMA BRCA2 v1.2 specification marks PM6 as Not Applicable. |

|
| PP1 | Not assessed | No co-segregation data are available for quantitative analysis. ENIGMA PP1 requires a likelihood ratio from co-segregation analysis with LR ≥ 2.08:1 (Supporting) or higher. No family segregation studies for NM_000059.4:c.8386C>T were identified. |

| PP2 | N/A | ENIGMA BRCA2 v1.2 specification marks PP2 as Not Applicable. |

| PP3 | Not met | Although p.Pro2796Ser lies within the BRCA2 DNA binding domain (aa 2481-3186), neither ENIGMA PP3 condition is satisfied: BayesDel no-AF score is -0.202329 (threshold ≥ 0.30 not met) and SpliceAI max delta is 0.16 (threshold ≥ 0.2 not met). No predicted impact on protein function or splicing by ENIGMA bioinformatic thresholds. |

| PP4 | Not met | ENIGMA PP4 requires a combined LR ≥ 2.08:1 toward pathogenicity from multifactorial likelihood clinical data. The combined multifactorial LR from Parsons et al. 2019 (PMID:31131967) for NM_000059.4:c.8386C>T is 0.123, which is in the benign direction and well below the PP4 Supporting threshold. The variant is not present in the Li et al. 2020 clinical history LR dataset. |

| BA1 | Not met | ENIGMA BA1 (Stand Alone) requires filter allele frequency (FAF) > 0.1% (0.001) in gnomAD. The grpmax FAF for NM_000059.4:c.8386C>T is 1.122e-05 (0.00112%), far below the BA1 threshold. The variant is too rare in population databases to meet BA1. |

| BS1 | Not met | ENIGMA BS1 Strong requires FAF > 0.01% (0.0001); BS1 Supporting requires FAF > 0.002% (0.00002). The grpmax FAF for NM_000059.4:c.8386C>T is 1.122e-05 (0.00112%), which is below even the Supporting threshold of 0.002%. The variant is too rare in population databases to meet BS1 at any strength. |

| BS2 | Not assessed | ENIGMA BS2 requires proband-level assessment for absence of Fanconi Anemia phenotype features, scored per Specifications Table 8. No proband clinical phenotype data are available for this adjudication. |
cspec
|
| BS3 | Not met | NM_000059.4:c.8386C>T is not listed in ENIGMA Specifications Table 9 (curated functional assay results). No calibrated mammalian functional studies demonstrating no damaging effect on protein function are available. The Houdayer et al. 2012 (PMID:22505045) splicing assay showed no splicing aberration, but this is mRNA-level evidence only and does not satisfy BS3, which requires protein-level or combined mRNA+protein functional data under ENIGMA v1.2. |

| BS4 | Not assessed | ENIGMA BS4 requires a quantitative co-segregation analysis with LR ≤ 0.48:1 toward benign. No family segregation data are available for NM_000059.4:c.8386C>T. |
cspec
|
| BP1 | Not met | ENIGMA BP1 Strong requires a missense variant located OUTSIDE a clinically important functional domain AND no splicing predicted (SpliceAI ≤ 0.1). p.Pro2796Ser is located within the BRCA2 DNA binding domain (aa 2481-3186), and SpliceAI delta is 0.16 (> 0.1 threshold). Both conditions fail. |

| BP4 | Not met | ENIGMA BP4 requires BOTH BayesDel no-AF ≤ 0.18 AND SpliceAI ≤ 0.1 for missense variants inside a clinically important functional domain. Although BayesDel no-AF (-0.202329, ≤ 0.18) is met and the variant lies within the DNA binding domain, SpliceAI max delta is 0.16, which exceeds the 0.1 threshold. BP4 is not met. |

| BP5 | Met | ENIGMA BP5 Supporting applies when the combined likelihood ratio from multifactorial likelihood clinical data is ≤ 0.48:1. The combined LR from Parsons et al. 2019 (PMID:31131967) multifactorial analysis for NM_000059.4:c.8386C>T is 0.123, with a posterior probability of pathogenicity of 0.0038 and IARC class 2 (Likely Benign). The combined LR of 0.123 supports BP5 at Supporting strength. The combined LR incorporates co-occurrence, family history, pathology, and case-control likelihood components. |

| BP6 | N/A | ENIGMA BRCA2 v1.2 specification marks BP6 as Not Applicable. |
cspec
|
| BP7 | Not met | ENIGMA BP7 Strong (RNA) for missense variants inside a clinically important functional domain requires BS3 to be met first. BS3 is not met for this variant. BP7 Supporting applies only to silent variants inside functional domains (if BP4 met) or intronic variants outside donor/acceptor positions. NM_000059.4:c.8386C>T is a missense variant and does not meet any BP7 rule condition. The Houdayer et al. 2012 splicing assay showed no splicing aberration, but this mRNA-only data does not independently qualify for BP7 under ENIGMA v1.2 rules for missense variants inside functional domains. |
