About BRCA2

BRCA2 encodes a DNA repair protein that maintains genome stability by repairing double-strand breaks through homologous recombination and by protecting DNA replication forks. It acts as a tumor suppressor, and inherited loss-of-function changes cause hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome, with elevated lifetime risks of breast, ovarian, prostate, and pancreatic cancers; biallelic changes cause Fanconi anemia complementation group D1. Reduced or altered BRCA2 activity is implicated in multiple tumor types, and PARP inhibitors are an approved treatment for BRCA2-associated ovarian and breast cancers.

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.

Met Not met Not assessed Not applicable

PVS1 is met at very strong strength for the exon 18 frameshift, while PM4 and BP3 are not applicable under the VCEP's explicit criterion rules.

All three requested criteria are not_applicable because the variant is a frameshift and the ENIGMA v1.2 PP3, BP4, and BP7 scopes do not include frameshift variants.

The available SpliceAI result was not double-counted or used outside the governing criterion scopes.

PVS1 Very strongVCEPMet, very strong: c.8107dup is an exon 18 frameshift with a premature stop at p.2705, upstream of the VCEP's c.9600 NMD escape boundary. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

NM_000059.4:c.8107dup is a frameshift producing NP_000050.3:p.(Thr2703AsnfsTer3), a premature termination codon at predicted protein position 2705 in the BRCA2 transcript. The VCEP identifies loss of function as a well-established BRCA2 disease mechanism and includes frameshift variants in its PVS1 rule. The variant is in BRCA2 exon 18 according to the ENIGMA Table 4 exon map. Table 4 assigns PVS1 to BRCA2 exon 18 PTC variants, and Appendix D states that BRCA2 PTCs from c.9600 onward are not predicted to result in NMD; c.8107 is upstream of that boundary. Therefore the full, un-downgraded PVS1 strength applies. The variant was not found as a variant-specific entry in Specifications_V1.2_2024-11-18.docx, Appendices_V1.2_2024-11-18.docx, Specifications_Table4_V1.2_2024-11-18.xlsx, or PMID_22505045_Houdayer_2012_HumMutat.pdf; the governing exon-level Table 4 pre-assignment was used instead.

PM5 StrongVCEPMet, Strong: ENIGMA Table 4 preassigns PM5_Strong (PTC) to BRCA2 exon 18, where this genomic frameshift creates a premature termination codon. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The variant is a genomic protein-termination frameshift in BRCA2 exon 18. ENIGMA Table 4 assigns the BRCA2 E18 PTC row PM5_Strong (PTC), and the row is not one of the excluded PM5_N/A exons. This is the VCEP's pre-assigned exon-specific governing code for additional weight to a PVS1-annotated PTC; no classic same-residue missense PM5 inference is used.

VCEP rule
Protein termination codon (PTC) variant in an exon where a different proven pathogenic PTC variant has been seen before. Use to justify additional weight for PTC variants annotated as PVS1. Only applied to genomic PTC changes (not splicing). Weight determined by exon where the nucleotide change occurs.
Evidence considered
  • Variant normalization identifies NM_000059.4:c.8107dup as a frameshift producing p.(Thr2703AsnfsTer3) / p.(T2703Nfs*3), a genomic PTC consequence.
  • Specifications_Table4_V1.2_2024-11-18.xlsx, BRCA2 E18 row: PVS1 | PTC | PM5_Strong (PTC).
  • ENIGMA Specifications v1.2 states that PM5_VariableWeight (PTC) is for a PTC variant in an exon where a different proven pathogenic PTC variant has been seen, is used for additional weight for PVS1-annotated PTC variants, applies only to genomic PTC changes, and is weighted by exon.

PS3 VCEPNot assessed: no variant-specific calibrated assay result or pre-assigned PS3 code was found for BRCA2 c.8107dup in the governing ENIGMA sources. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The ENIGMA BRCA2 VCEP reserves PS3 for well-established in vitro or in vivo functional studies showing a damaging effect, with protein-only or combined mRNA-and-protein assays evaluated through calibrated recommendations in Table 9. The exact variant was not found under c.8107dup, p.(Thr2703AsnfsTer3), or p.(T2703Nfs*3) in Specifications_Table9_V1.2_2024-11-18.xlsx, SupplementaryTables_V1.2_2024-11-18.xlsx, Specifications_V1.2_2024-11-18.docx, Appendices_V1.2_2024-11-18.docx, or HUMU-40-1557-s001.xlsx. The extracted functional publications describe other BRCA2 variants or gene-level mechanisms and do not provide variant-specific assay data for c.8107dup. Therefore, no VCEP-governed PS3 evidence or calibrated strength can be assigned.

VCEP rule
Well-established in vitro or in vivo functional studies supportive of a damaging effect Assay measures effect via protein only OR mRNA and protein combined. See Appendix E See Figure 1C for simplified flowchart/s to advise application of codes for functional data, in content of variant type and location within a (potentially) clinically important functional domain.

The ENIGMA BRCA2 rule requires case-control evidence with p-value <=0.05, OR >=4, and a lower confidence interval excluding 2.0. No variant-specific case-control result for NM_000059.4:c.8107dup / p.(Thr2703AsnfsTer3) / p.(T2703Nfs*3) was found in SupplementaryTables_V1.2_2024-11-18.xlsx.txt, HUMU-40-1557-s001.xlsx.txt, or Specifications_V1.2_2024-11-18.docx.txt. The VCEP also states not to use Proband Counting as originally described, so the available variant-specific OncoKB context and gene-level papers cannot establish PS4.

Reasoning

The ENIGMA BRCA2 rule requires a patient with a phenotype consistent with BRCA1- or BRCA2-related Fanconi Anemia and co-occurrent variants in the same gene, with phase and the co-occurrent variant's VCEP classification used to assign points. The available case evidence contains no affected-proband Fanconi Anemia phenotype, chromosome-breakage result, pathogenic/likely pathogenic BRCA2 co-variant, or phase observation for NM_000059.4:c.8107dup; therefore PM3 cannot be assessed.

The VCEP requires multiple affected family members and a quantitative co-segregation analysis with an LR threshold of at least 2.08:1 for PP1 Supporting, 4.3:1 for Moderate, 18.7:1 for Strong, or 350:1 for Very Strong. The case materials contain no proband-level family segregation data, meioses, parental testing, or quantitative co-segregation LR for c.8107dup; the three governing VCEP files were searched under c.8107dup, p.Thr2703AsnfsTer3, and p.T2703Nfs*3 without a matching entry.

BS3 VCEPNot assessed: no variant-specific calibrated assay result or pre-assigned BS3 code was found for BRCA2 c.8107dup in the governing ENIGMA sources. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The ENIGMA BRCA2 VCEP reserves BS3 for well-established in vitro or in vivo functional studies showing no damaging effect on protein function, using protein-only or combined mRNA-and-protein assays and calibrated recommendations in Table 9. The exact variant was not found under c.8107dup, p.(Thr2703AsnfsTer3), or p.(T2703Nfs*3) in Specifications_Table9_V1.2_2024-11-18.xlsx, SupplementaryTables_V1.2_2024-11-18.xlsx, Specifications_V1.2_2024-11-18.docx, Appendices_V1.2_2024-11-18.docx, or HUMU-40-1557-s001.xlsx. The extracted functional publications describe other BRCA2 variants or gene-level mechanisms and do not provide variant-specific benign functional data for c.8107dup. Therefore, no VCEP-governed BS3 evidence or calibrated strength can be assigned.

VCEP rule
Well-established in vitro or in vivo functional studies shows no damaging effect on protein function. Assay measures effect via protein only OR mRNA and protein combined. See Appendix E.

BS4 VCEPNot assessed: no quantitative non-segregation LR or affected-family data is available to compare with the BS4 Supporting threshold of LR ≤0.48:1. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The VCEP requires lack of segregation in affected family members measured by a quantitative co-segregation method, with BS4 Supporting at LR ≤0.48:1, Moderate at LR ≤0.23:1, Strong at LR ≤0.05:1, and Very Strong at LR ≤0.00285:1. The case materials contain no non-segregating affected relatives, pedigree-level observations, parental testing, or quantitative co-segregation LR for c.8107dup; the three governing VCEP files were searched under c.8107dup, p.Thr2703AsnfsTer3, and p.T2703Nfs*3 without a matching entry. BS4 therefore cannot be assessed.

PS1 N/ANot applicable: c.8107dup is a frameshift, whereas the VCEP PS1 paths require a predicted missense substitution or a matched splicing event. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

PS1 is not applicable because NM_000059.4:c.8107dup is a frameshift producing p.(Thr2703AsnfsTer3), not a predicted missense substitution, and no same predicted splicing event is established. The VCEP PS1 rule is limited to predicted missense substitutions or exonic/intronic variants with the same predicted splicing impact as a previously classified pathogenic variant.

PM1 VCEPNot applicable: residue 2703 lies within the DNA-binding domain aa 2481-3186, but ENIGMA explicitly says PM1 is not used. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

PM1 is not applicable under ENIGMA BRCA2 v1.2: the specification explicitly says not to use PM1 and to consider it as a component of the PP3/BP4 bioinformatic analysis. The frameshift begins at residue 2703, which lies within the VCEP-defined BRCA2 DNA-binding domain aa 2481-3186, but that domain overlap does not reinstate a criterion the VCEP excludes. The case vcep_materials.json domain_tables key is empty; the VCEP text nevertheless defines the DNA-binding domain as aa 2481-3186.

PM2 N/ANot applicable: the VCEP excludes insertion-type indels from PM2, and c.8107dup is a frameshift duplication. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The ENIGMA BRCA2 v1.2 PM2 rule is Supporting-only and explicitly excludes insertion, deletion, and delins variants. NM_000059.4:c.8107dup is a duplication causing a frameshift, i.e. an insertion-type indel, so PM2 is not applicable under the VCEP's stated exclusion rather than being inferred from generic population absence.

VCEP rule
Absent/rare from controls in an ethnically-matched cohort population sample. ... Absent from gnomAD (exome and genome). ... Observation of a variant only once in a gnomAD outbred population is not informative (no code applied). Do not apply for insertion, deletion or delins variants.

The ENIGMA BRCA2 rule limits PP3 to missense or in-frame insertion/deletion/delins variants for protein-impact prediction, and to silent, missense/in-frame, or intronic variants outside the canonical donor/acceptor ±1,2 positions for splice prediction. This variant is NM_000059.4:c.8107dup, a frameshift producing p.(Thr2703AsnfsTer3), so it is outside PP3 scope. The recorded SpliceAI maximum delta score of 0.045 was therefore not used for PP3, and no BayesDel score is required. The specification also states not to apply PP3 if PVS1 is met at any strength.

VCEP rule
Do not apply PP3 if PVS1 is met at any strength. ... Apply PP3 for missense or in-frame insertion, deletion or delins variants inside a (potentially) clinically important functional domain and predicted impact via protein change (BayesDel predicted Impact). ... Apply PP3 for predicted splicing (SpliceAI ≥0.2) for silent, missense/in-frame (irrespective of location in clinically important functional domain) and for intronic variants outside of the donor and acceptor ±1,2 positions.

The recorded SpliceAI maximum delta score of 0.045 and the absence of a BayesDel score cannot establish BP4 for this variant.

VCEP rule
Apply BP4 for: ... Missense or in-frame insertion, deletion or delins variants inside a (potentially) clinically important functional domain, and no predicted impact via protein change or splicing (BayesDel predicted No Impact AND SpliceAI ≤0.1). ... Silent variant inside a (potentially) clinically important functional domain, if no predicted impact via splicing (SpliceAI ≤0.1). ... Intronic variants outside of the donor and acceptor ±1,2 positions AND no predicted impact via splicing (SpliceAI ≤0.1).
Evidence considered
  • Variant normalization identifies NM_000059.4:c.8107dup as a frameshift, NP_000050.3:p.(Thr2703AsnfsTer3), also p.(T2703Nfs*3).
  • The ENIGMA specification's BP4 scope names missense/in-frame, silent, and qualifying intronic variants; frameshift variants are not included.
  • SpliceAI was available with maximum delta 0.045, below the VCEP's ≤0.1 no-impact threshold, but the score was not used because the variant is outside BP4 scope; no BayesDel score was available.

BP6 VCEPNot applicable: the ENIGMA BRCA2 specification explicitly says BP6 is not for use, and no ClinVar record was found for this variant. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The ENIGMA BRCA2 VCEP explicitly excludes BP6 from use. No ClinVar record or other qualifying independent benign report was identified for this variant, but the criterion is not applicable under the governing VCEP specification.

VCEP rule
This criterion is not for use as recommended by the ClinGen Sequence Variant Interpretation VCEP Review Committee.
Evidence considered
  • The ENIGMA BRCA2 CSPEC entry marks BP6 as not applicable for this VCEP.
  • The case ClinVar search returned no result for BRCA2 c.8107dup.

BP7 N/ANot applicable: BP7 covers silent, intronic, or missense/in-frame variants, whereas c.8107dup is a frameshift. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The ENIGMA BRCA2 rule limits BP7 to silent variants inside a clinically important domain when BP4 is met, or intronic variants at or beyond +7/-21 positions when BP4 is met. Its repurposed BP7_Strong (RNA) path covers intronic, silent, and missense/in-frame variants outside a clinically important domain. This variant is a frameshift, so it is outside all BP7 paths. The SpliceAI maximum delta score of 0.045 was not used to assign BP7.

VCEP rule
Apply BP7 for ... Silent variant inside a (potentially) clinically important functional domain, IF BP4 met. ... Intronic variants located outside conserved donor or acceptor motif positions (at or beyond positions +7/-21) IF BP4 met. ... Apply as BP7_Strong (RNA) for intronic, silent, and missense/in-frame variants located outside a (potentially) clinically important functional domain.
Evidence considered
  • Variant normalization identifies NM_000059.4:c.8107dup as a frameshift, NP_000050.3:p.(Thr2703AsnfsTer3), also p.(T2703Nfs*3).
  • The ENIGMA specification's BP7 paths name silent, intronic, and missense/in-frame variants, and require BP4 for the basic silent/intronic paths; frameshift variants are not included.
  • SpliceAI was available with maximum delta 0.045, but it was not used because the variant is outside BP7 scope.

How the predictions were used

PP3 N/ANot applicable: PP3 covers missense, in-frame, silent, or qualifying intronic variants, whereas c.8107dup is a frameshift. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The ENIGMA BRCA2 rule limits PP3 to missense or in-frame insertion/deletion/delins variants for protein-impact prediction, and to silent, missense/in-frame, or intronic variants outside the canonical donor/acceptor ±1,2 positions for splice prediction. This variant is NM_000059.4:c.8107dup, a frameshift producing p.(Thr2703AsnfsTer3), so it is outside PP3 scope. The recorded SpliceAI maximum delta score of 0.045 was therefore not used for PP3, and no BayesDel score is required. The specification also states not to apply PP3 if PVS1 is met at any strength.

VCEP rule
Do not apply PP3 if PVS1 is met at any strength. ... Apply PP3 for missense or in-frame insertion, deletion or delins variants inside a (potentially) clinically important functional domain and predicted impact via protein change (BayesDel predicted Impact). ... Apply PP3 for predicted splicing (SpliceAI ≥0.2) for silent, missense/in-frame (irrespective of location in clinically important functional domain) and for intronic variants outside of the donor and acceptor ±1,2 positions.
Evidence considered
  • Variant normalization identifies NM_000059.4:c.8107dup as a frameshift, NP_000050.3:p.(Thr2703AsnfsTer3), also p.(T2703Nfs*3).
  • The ENIGMA specification's PP3 scope names missense/in-frame protein-impact paths and silent, missense/in-frame, or qualifying intronic splice-prediction paths; frameshift variants are not included.
  • SpliceAI was available with DS_AG 0.005, DS_AL 0.006, DS_DG 0.000, DS_DL 0.045, maximum delta 0.045; this predictor result was not applied because the variant is outside PP3 scope.
