Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
BP1 (Strong): synonymous change at codon 2439, outside the PALB2-binding and DNA-binding domains, with no predicted splice impact (SpliceAI max delta 0.012).
2
BP6 (Supporting): ENIGMA expert panel classified this exact variant Likely benign (ClinVar SCV000579037).
3
Likely Benign: ENIGMA CSPEC v1.2 Table 3 combines BP1 (Strong) with BP6 (Supporting), both benign-direction, with no pathogenic criteria met.
Final determination:
ENIGMA BRCA1/BRCA2 CSPEC v1.2 Table 3 Likely Benign rule: 1 Strong (Benign) + 1 Supporting (Benign) criterion = Likely Benign; here BP1 (Strong, benign) plus BP6 (Supporting, benign) satisfy this combination with no competing pathogenic evidence.
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: a synonymous change (p.(Gly2439=)) is not a null variant such as nonsense, frameshift, or splice-site disruption. |
cspec
spliceai
|
| PS1 | N/A | Not applicable: PS1 requires a missense or splice-impacting variant; this synonymous change (p.(Gly2439=)) is neither. |
cspec
spliceai
|
| PS2 | N/A | Not applicable: the ENIGMA BRCA2 specification designates PS2 (de novo) as not used. |
cspec
|
| PS3 | Not assessed | Insufficient evidence: no functional assay result (minigene, saturation genome editing, or protein-based) for this variant was available. |
|
| PS4 | Not assessed | Insufficient evidence: no case-control enrichment study reporting this exact variant was available. |
cspec
vcep_humu_40_1557_s001
|
| PM1 | N/A | Not applicable: the ENIGMA BRCA2 specification defines no PM1 hotspot rule for this gene. |
cspec
|
| PM2 | Not met | Not met: the variant is present in gnomAD v2.1 (7/251,214 alleles; AF 2.8e-05), so the PM2 absence-from-controls requirement is not satisfied. |
cspec
gnomad_v2
gnomad_v4
gnomad_canada
|
| PM3 | Not assessed | Insufficient evidence: no Fanconi anemia phenotype, second BRCA2 variant, or inheritance data were available to assess PM3. |
cspec
|
| PM4 | N/A | Not applicable: the synonymous change leaves the protein sequence and length unchanged (p.(Gly2439=)). |
cspec
|
| PM5 | N/A | Not applicable: PM5 applies to protein-termination or missense changes; this variant is synonymous. |
cspec
|
| PM6 | N/A | Not applicable: the ENIGMA BRCA2 specification designates PM6 (de novo) as not used. |
cspec
|
| PP1 | Not assessed | Insufficient evidence: no family segregation data or quantitative co-segregation likelihood ratio were available. |
cspec
|
| PP2 | N/A | Not applicable: the ENIGMA BRCA2 specification defines no PP2 rule for this gene. |
cspec
|
| PP3 | Not met | Not met: SpliceAI max delta 0.012 is far below the ≥0.2 PP3 splice-impact threshold for silent variants. |
spliceai

|
| PP5 | Not met | Not met: the sole ClinVar expert-panel entry is ENIGMA Likely benign, not Pathogenic or Likely pathogenic. |
clinvar
|
| BA1 | Not met | Not met: maximum gnomAD non-founder FAF is 1.687e-05, far below the >0.001 BA1 threshold. |

| BS1 | Not met | Not met: gnomAD v2.1 maximum population FAF 1.687e-05 falls below the BS1 Supporting lower bound of 0.00002. |

| BS2 | Not assessed | Insufficient evidence: no identifiable healthy adult probands or co-occurrence variables were available to assign BS2 points. |

|
| BS3 | Not assessed | Insufficient evidence: no functional assay demonstrating a benign effect for this variant was available. |
|
| BS4 | Not assessed | Insufficient evidence: no family testing showing lack of segregation with disease was available. |
cspec
|
| BP1 | Met | Met (Strong): silent change at codon 2439, outside the PALB2-binding (aa10-40) and DNA-binding (aa2481-3186) domains, with SpliceAI max delta 0.012 ≤ 0.1. |
cspec

|
| BP2 | N/A | Not applicable: the ENIGMA BRCA2 specification designates BP2 as not used. |
cspec
|
| BP3 | N/A | Not applicable: the ENIGMA BRCA2 specification designates BP3 as not used for this gene. |
cspec
|
| BP4 | Not met | Not met: SpliceAI is benign (max delta 0.012 ≤ 0.1), but BP4's silent-variant rule requires a position inside a functional domain; codon 2439 lies outside both. |
