Description
The c.9117G>A variant in BRCA2 is a synonymous variant (p.Pro3039=). This variant is present in gnomAD v2.1 (exomes only, non-cancer subset) or gnomAD v3.1 (non-cancer subset) but is below the ENIGMA BRCA1/2 VCEP threshold >0.00002 for BS1_Supporting (PM2_Supporting, BS1, and BA1 are not met). This variant is reported to result in aberrant mRNA splicing. RT-PCR and Mini-gene assays demonstrated that the variant impacts splicing by exon skipping (PMIDs: 17011978, 23451180, 22505045, 31843900, 32398771, 22632462). Appropriate code strength determined by comparison of results to PVS1 decision tree (PVS1 (RNA) met). Multifactorial likelihood ratio analysis using clinically calibrated data produced a combined LR for this variant of 3364.725 (based on Co-occurrence LR=2.231; Family History LR=1508.137), above the threshold for Very strong evidence towards pathogenicity (LR >350) (PP4_Very Strong met; PMID: 17924331, 31853058). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as a Pathogenic variant for BRCA2-related cancer predisposition based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied as specified by the ENIGMA BRCA1/2 VCEP (PVS1 (RNA), PP4_VeryStrong).
