Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points: 0P and 5B. BP4_StrongBP6

The NM_000059.4(BRCA2):​c.175C>G​(p.Pro59Ala) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000184 in 1,614,038 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 13/20 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. P59R) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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]

Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

The BRCA2 p.Pro59Ala variant was identified in the literature. The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs56091799) as “With Uncertain significance, other allele”, the Clinvitae and ClinVar databases (classified as benign by Invitae, Ambry Genetics; classified as likely benign by GeneDx, SCRP; classified as uncertain significance by CHEO, Emory Genetics and BIC), the BIC database (10x with unknown clinical importance), and UMD (25x with as an unclassified variant). In UMD the variant was identified in two patients, each with a separate pathogenic variant (BRCA1: c.5541C>A, p.Cys1847X and BRCA2: c.5641_5644delAAAT, p.Lys1881GlnfsX27), increasing the likelihood that the p.Pro59Ala variant does not have clinical significance. This variant was identified in the 1000 Genomes Project in 1 of 5000 chromosomes (frequency: 0.0002), the NHLBI GO Exome Sequencing Project in 13 of 4406 African American alleles (freq. 0.003), the genome Aggregation Database (beta, October 19th 2016) in 87 of 282602 chromosomes (freq. 0.0003), the Exome Aggregation Consortium database (August 8th 2016) in 28 of 121204 chromosomes (freq. 0.0002) in the following populations: African in 28 of 10306 chromosomes (freq. 0.002), but was not seen in Asian, European, Finnish, Latino and Other populations, increasing the likelihood that this may be a low frequency benign variant in certain populations of origin. The variant was not identified in Fanconi Anemia Mutation Database (LOVD), LOVD-IARC database, ARUP Laboratories BRCA Mutations Database, COSMIC, GeneInsight COGR database. Computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein and this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and 1 of 5 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing; this is not very predictive of pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign. -
