Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
Pathogenic: PS3 Strong reflects three calibrated functional studies showing protein function similar to pathogenic controls.
2
Pathogenic: PP1 Very Strong reflects complete co-segregation across 10 pedigrees with odds of 13,731:1.
3
Pathogenic: PP3 Supporting reflects a BayesDel no-AF score of 0.579612 above the 0.30 threshold.
4
Pathogenic: PP4 Strong reflects a multifactorial clinical-history likelihood ratio of 79.2565.
5
Pathogenic: PP5 Supporting reflects a three-star ENIGMA expert-panel ClinVar Pathogenic assertion.
Final determination:
Under the ENIGMA BRCA2 Version 1.2 Table 3 rules, one Very Strong pathogenic criterion plus at least one Strong pathogenic criterion yields Pathogenic; PP1 Very Strong and PS3 Strong satisfy this rule.

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: c.8167G>C causes p.Asp2723His, a missense substitution, whereas ENIGMA PVS1 applies to null variants such as nonsense, frameshift, deletion, duplication, or canonical splice-site variants. |

|
| PS1 | Not met | Not met: the only VCEP-listed likely pathogenic alternate, p.Asp2723Gly, has documented exon 18 splicing and cannot serve as a protein-change PS1 reference. |

|
| PS2 | N/A | Not applicable: the ENIGMA BRCA2 VCEP prohibits PS2 because de novo occurrences lack calibrated predictive capacity for relatively common BRCA1/2-related cancers. |
cspec

|
| PS3 | Met | Met at Strong: ENIGMA Table 9 pre-assigns PS3 Strong from three calibrated studies showing protein function similar to pathogenic controls. |

PMID:18451181
|
| PM1 | N/A | Not applicable: residue 2723 is in the DNA-binding domain, but ENIGMA explicitly directs that PM1 is not used and domain evidence belongs under PP3/BP4. |

| PM2 | Not met | Not met: the variant occurs once in gnomAD v3.1 non-cancer, so it is not absent from the VCEP-required control datasets. |

PMID:15290653
|
| PM4 | N/A | Not applicable: p.Asp2723His is a missense substitution, not an in-frame deletion, in-frame insertion, or stop-loss protein-length change, and ENIGMA marks PM4 'Do not use.' |
cspec
vcep_specifications_v1_2_2024_11_18
|
| PM5 | N/A | Not applicable: c.8167G>C is missense, while ENIGMA reserves PM5 for exon-specific protein-termination-codon variants. |

|
| PP2 | N/A | Not applicable: ENIGMA says not to use PP2 for BRCA2 because the gene has a high frequency of benign missense variants. |
