Likely Pathogenic for BRCA1-related cancer predisposition. Applied ACMG criteria (verbatim):
PM2_Supporting PS3 PP3
Curation rationale (ClinGen, verbatim)
The c.5252G>C variant in BRCA1 is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of Arginine by Proline at amino acid 1751 (p.(Arg1751Pro)). 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). Reported by three calibrated studies to exhibit protein function similar to pathogenic control variants (PMIDs:30209399, 38709234, 35196514) (PS3 met). This BRCA1 missense variant is within a key functional domain and the computational predictor BayesDel (noAF) gives a score of 0.37, above the recommended threshold of 0.28 for prediction of impact on BRCA1 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 0.619 (based on Co-occurrence LR=1.1; Family History LR=0.56), which is above the ENIGMA BRCA1/2 VCEP threshold for BP5 (>0.48) and below PP4 (<2.08) (BP5 and PP4 not met; PMIDs: 31853058, 31131967). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as a Likely pathogenic variant for BRCA1-related cancer predisposition based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied as specified by the ENIGMA BRCA1/2 VCEP (PM2_Supporting, PS3, PP3).

AlphaMissense carries the ACMG weight for missense; REVEL and SaProt are independent agreement signals.
Population frequency
Absent from gnomAD v4.1. Not observed in any sequenced alleles — a rarity signal (ACMG PM2-supporting), not evidence of pathogenicity on its own.
