Genes affected
BRCA2 (HGNC:1101): (BRCA2 DNA repair associated) Inherited mutations in BRCA1 and this gene, BRCA2, confer increased lifetime risk of developing breast or ovarian cancer. Both BRCA1 and BRCA2 are involved in maintenance of genome stability, specifically the homologous recombination pathway for double-strand DNA repair. The largest exon in both genes is exon 11, which harbors the most important and frequent mutations in breast cancer patients. The BRCA2 gene was found on chromosome 13q12.3 in human. The BRCA2 protein contains several copies of a 70 aa motif called the BRC motif, and these motifs mediate binding to the RAD51 recombinase which functions in DNA repair. BRCA2 is considered a tumor suppressor gene, as tumors with BRCA2 mutations generally exhibit loss of heterozygosity (LOH) of the wild-type allele. [provided by RefSeq, May 2020]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthOct 30, 2023This missense variant replaces alanine with valine at codon 39 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with bilateral breast cancer, this individual also carried a pathogenic variant in the CHEK2 gene that could explain the observed phenotype (PMID: 28608266). In a large breast cancer case-control study conducted by the BRIDGES consortium this variant was reported in 5/60466 cases and 3/53461 controls, showing inconclusive association with disease (OR=1.474, 95%CI 0.352 to 6.167, p-value=0.731) (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_007683). This variant has been identified in 1/251240 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesApr 24, 2020The BRCA2 c.116C>T; p.Ala39Val variant (rs398122724) is reported in the literature in an individual affected with breast and thyroid cancer who also carried a pathogenic variant in CHEK2 (Dominguez-Valentin 2018). This variant is only observed on one allele in the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. The alanine at codon 39 is highly conserved, and computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is deleterious. Due to limited information, the clinical significance of the p.Ala39Val variant is uncertain at this time. -
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxNov 14, 2019Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports that this variant does not alter protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 28608266, 31131967) -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoMay 14, 2024The BRCA2 c.116C>T (p.Ala39Val) variant has been reported in individuals with breast cancer (PMID: 31811167 (2019), 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/genes/BRCA2)) and Cowden like syndrome (PMID: 28608266 (2017)). This variant has also been identified in reportedly healthy individuals (PMID: 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/genes/BRCA2)). Functional studies have shown that this variant does not affect BRCA2 splicing and protein expression (PMID: 35979650 (2022)). However, additional studies are required to assess other BRCA2 protein functions. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000004 (1/251240 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded conflicting predictions that this variant is benign or damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsSep 18, 2024The p.A39V variant (also known as c.116C>T), located in coding exon 2 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 116. The alanine at codon 39 is replaced by valine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration has been reported in one Norwegian family with multiple early-onset cancers (Dominguez-Valentin M et al. Fam. Cancer. 2018 Jan;17:141-153). This alteration was also cited as likely benign in a multifactorial model of variant interpretation that incorporates co-segregation, family history, co-occurrence and tumor pathology and case-control data (Parsons MT et al. Hum Mutat. 2019 09;40(9):1557-1578). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthMar 20, 2023This missense variant replaces alanine with valine at codon 39 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). RNA studies using a minigene assay and patient-derived RNA have shown that this variant does not impact splicing (PMID: 28608266, 35979650). A functional study has reported that this variant does not impact BRCA2 function in the complementation of Brca2-deficient mouse embryonic stem cells and in a homology-directed DNA repair assay (PMID: 35979650). This variant has been reported in an individual affected with bilateral breast cancer, this individual also carried a pathogenic variant in the CHEK2 gene that could explain the observed phenotype (PMID: 28608266). In a large breast cancer case-control study conducted by the BRIDGES consortium this variant was reported in 5/60466 cases and 3/53461 unaffected controls, showing inconclusive association with disease (OR=1.474, 95%CI 0.352 to 6.167, p-value=0.731) (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_007683). This variant has been identified in 1/251240 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
