Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
BP1 (Strong): silent substitution outside clinically important functional domains (PALB2 binding aa 10-40, DNA binding aa 2481-3186) with no predicted splice impact (SpliceAI max delta 0.011 ≤0.1).
2
BP4 (Supporting): SpliceAI max delta 0.011 meets the ≤0.1 no-splicing-impact threshold for silent variants.
3
BP6 (Supporting): ENIGMA expert panel classified this exact variant as Likely benign.
4
BP7 (Supporting): silent variant with no predicted splice impact; no mRNA assay data were available to elevate to Strong.
5
Overall: Likely Benign — no pathogenic-direction criteria met; BP1 (Strong) plus three Supporting benign codes satisfy the VCEP rule 1 Strong (Benign) + ≥1 Supporting (Benign).

Criteria assessment
ACMG/AMP criteria review
Criteria shown when status is available
All criteria require review: For research and educational purposes only.
| Criterion | Status | Rationale | Evidence used |
|---|---|---|---|
| PVS1 | N/A | Not applicable: synonymous change with no predicted splice impact (SpliceAI max delta 0.01), so no null-variant pathway applies. |
cspec
spliceai
|
| PS1 | N/A | Not applicable: no amino acid change occurs and SpliceAI max delta 0.01 predicts no splicing impact, so no PS1 pathway applies. |
cspec
spliceai
|
| PS2 | N/A | Not applicable under the ENIGMA BRCA1/BRCA2 VCEP specification for BRCA2. |
cspec
|
| PS3 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no variant-specific functional assay results were identified, so insufficient evidence was available. |
|
| PS4 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no exact-variant case-control study meeting the ENIGMA threshold (p≤0.05, OR≥4) was identified. |
cspec
PMID:22970155
|
| PM1 | N/A | Not applicable: this VCEP marks PM1 Not Applicable for BRCA2; domain evidence is handled through other criteria. |
cspec
|
| PM2 | Not met | Not met: observed in gnomAD (11/251,022 alleles; grpmax FAF 0.00029), so not absent from population controls. |
cspec
gnomad_v2
gnomad_v4
|
| PM3 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no Fanconi-anemia proband observation, second BRCA2 variant, or phase data were available. |
cspec
|
| PM4 | N/A | Not applicable: synonymous change does not alter protein length or the stop codon. |
|
| PM5 | N/A | Not applicable: reserved for PTC-comparator logic; this synonymous change is not a protein-termination or missense variant. |

|
| PM6 | N/A | Not applicable under the ENIGMA BRCA1/BRCA2 VCEP specification for BRCA2. |
cspec
|
| PP1 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no family genotype and phenotype data or co-segregation likelihood ratio was available. |
cspec
|
| PP2 | N/A | Not applicable: marked Not Applicable for BRCA2 in this VCEP; the variant is also synonymous, not missense. |
cspec
|
| PP3 | Not met | Not met: SpliceAI max delta 0.011, far below the ≥0.2 threshold required for silent variants. |
cspec
spliceai
|
| PP4 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no calibrated multifactorial likelihood ratio toward pathogenicity (LR ≥2.08) was available. |
cspec

|
| PP5 | Not met | Not met: the ClinVar expert-panel assertion is Likely benign, not Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic, so it cannot support PP5. |

| BA1 | Not met | Not met: gnomAD grpmax FAF 0.00029, below the BA1 threshold of >0.001. |
cspec
gnomad_v2
gnomad_v4

| BS1 | Not assessed | Not assessed: FAF 0.00029 exceeds the BS1_Strong threshold of >0.0001, but the required gnomAD non-cancer subset was not documented. |
cspec
gnomad_v2
gnomad_v4
|
| BS2 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no observations in individuals without Fanconi anemia were available; absence of homozygotes alone is insufficient. |

|
| BS3 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no variant-specific functional assay result was identified; the SpliceAI prediction is bioinformatic only and cannot substitute. |
|
| BS4 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no quantitative evidence of non-segregation in affected family members was available. |
cspec
|
| BP1 | Met | Met (Strong): silent substitution outside clinically important functional domains (aa 10-40, 2481-3186) with no predicted splice impact (SpliceAI max delta 0.011 ≤0.1). |

|
| BP2 | N/A | Not applicable: designated Not Applicable for BRCA2 in the ENIGMA v1.2 specification. |
