Strong functional data for pathogenicity or neutrality classify BRCA2 DNA-binding-domain variants of uncertain significance

Evidence Type(s): Functional, Oncogenic, Predictive
Justification: Functional: The text describes a functional assay (HDR) that evaluates the impact of various variants on protein function, indicating that certain variants resulted in loss of function or maintained functionality based on their HDR scores. Oncogenic: The mention of variants being associated with probabilities of pathogenicity >0.99 suggests that these variants may contribute to cancer development, indicating their potential oncogenic nature. Predictive: The text discusses the ability of certain variants to influence sensitivity to PARP inhibitors, which can be used to predict treatment responses in BRCA2-deficient cell lines.
