Classification rationale
1

The BRCA2 c.6859A>T (p.Arg2287Ter; p.R2287*) variant has not been observed in COSMIC and has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic with expert panel review.

This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and is present once in gnomAD v4.1 (1/1,556,108 alleles; AF 6.43e-07; no homozygotes), consistent with extreme rarity.

3

Under the ENIGMA BRCA2 specification, this exon 12 premature termination variant is a null variant in a gene where loss of function is an established disease mechanism, and the exon-level table assigns PVS1 to protein-truncating variants in exon 12.

SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact, with a maximum delta score of 0.10, which does not support PP3 for splice disruption.
