The c.8162T>A variant in BRCA2 is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of Leucine by Histidine at amino acid 2721 (p.(Leu2721His)). This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 (exomes only, non-cancer subset, read depth ≥25) and gnomAD v3.1 (non-cancer subset, read depth ≥25) (PM2_Supporting met). This BRCA2 missense variant is within a key functional domain and the computational predictor BayesDel (noAF) gives a score of 0.34, above the recommended threshold of 0.30 for prediction of impact on BRCA2 function via protein change. A SpliceAI score of 0 predicts no impact on splicing (score threshold <0.10) (PP3 met). Multifactorial likelihood ratio analysis using clinically calibrated data produced a combined LR for this variant of 2.39 (based on Family History LR=2.39), within the thresholds for supporting evidence towards pathogenicity (LR >2.08 & ≤4.3) (PP4 met; PMID: 31853058). Reported by six calibrated studies to exhibit protein function similar to pathogenic control variants (PMIDs: 38417439, 32444794, 39779857, 39779848, 33293522, 29988080) (PS3 met). mRNA experimental analysis indicates no impact on splicing (Internal lab contributor) but is not applied as strong evidence against pathogenicity since missense impact has not been excluded (BP7_Strong (RNA) not met). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as a Likely pathogenic variant for BRCA2-related cancer predisposition based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied as specified by the ENIGMA BRCA1/2 VCEP (PM2_Supporting, PS3, PP3, PP4).
