Integration of functional assay data results provides strong evidence for classification of hundreds of BRCA1 variants of uncertain significance

Paulo C. M. Lyra et al.

Summary: Functional data of 2701 missense variants in BRCA1 were collected and analyzed for variant classification; Using binary categorical variables and reference variants, high sensitivity and specificity assays were identified; Integration of validated assays provided evidence for pathogenicity or non-pathogenicity for 96.2% of functionally assessed VUS.

Machine learning-based reclassification of germline variants of unknown significance: The RENOVO algorithm

Valentina Favalli et al.

Summary: A machine learning tool called RENOVO has been developed to accurately classify genetic variants as pathogenic or benign, providing a pathogenicity likelihood score. The tool outperformed existing automated interpretation tools and showed great potential in reducing the fraction of uninterpreted or misinterpreted variants.

Clinical likelihood ratios and balanced accuracy for 44 in silico tools against multiple large-scale functional assays of cancer susceptibility genes

C. Cubuk et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the predictive performance of 44 commonly used in silico tools against clinically validated functional truth sets, finding that most tool-threshold combinations had specificity of <50%, leading to substantial overcalling of deleteriousness. REVEL and Meta-SNP demonstrated the best balanced accuracy and could potentially be used with stronger evidence weighting than current ACMG/AMP guidelines, particularly for predictions of benignity.

In silico analysis of BRCA1 and BRCA2 missense variants and the relevance in molecular genetic testing

Kok-Siong Poon

Summary: PolyPhen-2 and SIFT are widely used bioinformatics tools for assessing the functional impacts of missense variants. The study found SIFT to perform best in predicting benign and pathogenic variants in BRCA1, with both SIFT and PolyPhen-2 showing similar performance for BRCA2. However, there is lower consistency in predicting variants of unknown significance.
