missense · exon 10

BRCA1 encodes a large nuclear protein that helps maintain genomic stability by coordinating the repair of DNA double-strand breaks through homologous recombination, and it also regulates transcription and the cell cycle. It acts as a tumor suppressor, working with proteins such as RAD51, BRCA2, BARD1, and PALB2 to preserve genome integrity. Inherited alterations in BRCA1 cause hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome, with elevated risks of breast, ovarian, prostate, and pancreatic cancers, and biallelic loss underlies a rare form of Fanconi anemia. Because BRCA1-driven tumors rely on impaired DNA repair, they are treatable with PARP inhibitors.

This variant

BRCA1 encodes a tumor-suppressor protein that preserves genomic stability through homologous-recombination DNA repair and is central to hereditary breast and ovarian cancer predisposition.

Likely Benign: BP1 (strong) outweighs PM2 (supporting) under ENIGMA's conflicting-evidence point system, yielding a net score of -3.
Classification rationale
PM2 BP1 Likely Benign
BRCA1 c.2927A>G missense · exon 10

PM2 supporting: the variant is absent from the preferred non-cancer gnomAD exome and genome datasets. BP1 strong: residue 976 lies outside ENIGMA BRCA1 functional domains and SpliceAI maximum delta is 0.004.

PM2 + BP1 → Likely Benign
LYFE Sciences is an AI system, and it can make mistakes. Criteria may be applied incorrectly, sources may be misread, and a confident-looking classification can still be wrong. Double-check every criterion and its underlying evidence before relying on any call.

Strength Supporting Moderate Strong Very strong
PM2 supporting Pathogenic
Met at supporting: the variant is absent from the preferred non-cancer gnomAD exome and genome datasets required by the ENIGMA PM2 rule.
ENIGMA BRCA1 VCEP PM2 rule: absence from gnomAD exome and genome datasets supports PM2_Supporting, with preferred sources gnomAD v2.1 non-cancer exomes and gnomAD v3.1 non-cancer genomes; a single observation is not informative and quality-control failures exclude the evidence.The case population data report the variant absent from gnomAD v2.1 non-cancer, gnomAD v3.1 non-cancer, gnomAD v2.1, and gnomAD v4.1, with no quality or depth failure reported.
BP1 strong Benign
Met, Strong: residue 976 is outside approved BRCA1 domains and SpliceAI max delta 0.004 is below the <=0.1 BP1 threshold.
ENIGMA Specification v1.2 applies BP1_Strong to missense variants outside a potentially clinically important functional domain with no predicted splicing (SpliceAI <=0.1); missense prediction is not required for BP1.BRCA1 approved critical or potentially critical domains are RING aa 2-101, coiled-coil aa 1391-1424, and BRCT repeats aa 1650-1857; residue 976 is outside every listed domain.SpliceAI reports DS_AG 0.000, DS_AL 0.003, DS_DG 0.004, and DS_DL 0.000; the maximum delta is 0.004, below the VCEP BP1 cutoff of 0.1.

Pathogenic
PS1 Not assessed: SpliceAI max delta is 0.004, but no qualifying previously pathogenic alternate producing p.Asn976Ser was identified.
PS3 Not assessed: no variant-specific calibrated damaging functional assay result or ENIGMA PS3 assignment was found for c.2927A>G.
PS4 Not assessed: no variant-specific PS4 case-control odds ratio, confidence interval, or p-value was available for comparison with OR >=4 and p-value <=0.05.
PM3 Not assessed: no Fanconi-anemia phenotype, second BRCA1 pathogenic allele, or phase observation is documented for PM3 point assignment.
PP1 Not assessed: no variant-specific affected-family genotypes, meioses, or quantitative co-segregation LR were provided to compare with the PP1 threshold of 2.08:1.
PP3 Not met: REVEL 0.396 is below the 0.644 supporting PP3 threshold, and the ENIGMA BayesDel score -0.187387 is below 0.28.
PP4 Not assessed: no variant-specific combined clinical likelihood ratio was available for comparison with the PP4 Supporting threshold LR >=2.08.
PP5 Not met: ClinVar reported zero expert-panel submissions for c.2927A>G, so the required exact-variant Pathogenic or Likely pathogenic trigger is absent.
Benign
BA1 Not met: the variant is absent from the governing non-cancer gnomAD datasets, so its filter allele frequency does not exceed the ENIGMA BA1 threshold of 0.001.
BS1 Not met: the variant is absent from the preferred non-cancer gnomAD datasets, so no filter allele frequency exceeds the ENIGMA BS1 threshold of 0.0001.
BS2 Not assessed: no qualifying healthy-adult clinical observation or ENIGMA BS2 point data are available for this variant, and gnomAD frequency data cannot substitute for BS2.
BS3 Not assessed: no variant-specific calibrated benign functional assay result or ENIGMA BS3 assignment was found for c.2927A>G.
BS4 Not assessed: no variant-specific non-segregating affected relatives, meioses, or quantitative LR were provided to compare with the BS4 threshold of ≤0.48:1.
BP4 Not met: REVEL 0.396 exceeds the <=0.29 supporting BP4 threshold and remains in the gray zone for benign protein impact.
BP5 Not assessed: no variant-specific combined LR was available to test the BP5 Supporting inequality LR <=0.48 and >0.23.
BP6 Not met: ClinVar reported zero expert-panel submissions for c.2927A>G, so the required exact-variant Benign or Likely benign trigger is absent.
