Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
BP1 (Strong): missense change outside all ENIGMA-defined BRCA1 functional domains with no predicted splicing impact (SpliceAI max delta 0.01, threshold <=0.1).
2
Overall classification: Uncertain Significance — the single BP1 Strong benign code does not satisfy any ENIGMA Table 3 Likely Benign combination, which requires multiple independent benign evidence types.
Final determination:
Under ENIGMA BRCA1/2 VCEP v1.2 Table 3, only one benign-direction code (BP1, Strong) is met and no pathogenic-direction code is met; a single Strong (Benign) code alone does not meet the Likely Benign pathway because that pathway requires multiple independent evidence types, so no Table 3 combination is satisfied and the variant remains 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 | N/A | Not applicable: this is a missense substitution (p.Gly1087Ala), not a null variant such as nonsense, frameshift, or canonical splice-site change. |
cspec
|
| PS1 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no comparator variant producing the same p.Gly1087Ala change through a different nucleotide substitution was identified. |
cspec
|
| PS2 | N/A | Not applicable: the ENIGMA VCEP excludes de novo evidence because BRCA1/2 cancers are common and its predictive value is uncalibrated. |
cspec
|
| PS3 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no calibrated functional assay result for p.Gly1087Ala has been published in any VCEP-curated dataset. |

| PS4 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no case-control counts, p-value, odds ratio, or confidence interval for this variant were available. |
cspec
clinvar
|
| PM1 | N/A | Not applicable: the ENIGMA VCEP does not use PM1 for BRCA1, and Gly1087 lies outside all defined functional domains. |
cspec
|
| PM2 | Not met | Not met: the variant is present in gnomAD v2.1 controls (1/250,540 alleles), failing the required absence from controls. |
cspec

gnomad_v4
|
| PM3 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no Fanconi anemia phenotype, second BRCA1 variant, or phase information was documented. |
cspec
|
| PM4 | N/A | Not applicable: this missense substitution does not alter protein length, and the VCEP does not apply PM4 to BRCA1/2. |
cspec
|
| PM5 | N/A | Not applicable: ENIGMA restricts PM5 to protein-truncating variants, and p.Gly1087Ala is a missense change. |
cspec
pm5_candidates
|
| PM6 | N/A | Not applicable: the ENIGMA VCEP excludes presumed de novo occurrences because their predictive value for BRCA1/2 is uncalibrated. |
cspec
|
| PP1 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no family pedigree, parental testing, or segregation data were available for this variant. |
cspec
|
| PP2 | N/A | Not applicable: the ENIGMA VCEP does not use the standalone low-benign-missense-rate PP2 rule for BRCA1. |
cspec
|
| PP3 | Not met | Not met: SpliceAI max delta 0.015 is below the 0.2 threshold, and the BayesDel pathway applies only within functional domains. |

| PP4 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no calibrated multifactorial likelihood ratio for this variant was available. |

| PP5 | N/A | Not applicable: the variant has no expert-panel ClinVar submissions, and the VCEP does not apply PP5. |

|
| BP2 | N/A | Not applicable: the ENIGMA VCEP designates BP2 as not applicable for BRCA1/2. |
cspec
|
| BP3 | N/A | Not applicable: BP3 applies only to in-frame indels in repeat regions; this is a missense substitution. |
cspec
|
| BP4 | N/A | Not applicable: BP4 is domain-restricted, and this variant lies outside all BRCA1 domains, so it falls under BP1 instead. |
cspec
|
| BP5 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no calibrated multifactorial likelihood ratio against pathogenicity was available. |
