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: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: BRCA2 c.274C>T (p.Gln92X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant was absent in 251214 control chromosomes. c.274C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (example, Kluska_2015, Wojcik_2016, Zhang_2016). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Four clinical diagnostic laboratories and an expert panel (ENIGMA) have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Some submitters cite overlapping evidence utilized in the context of this evaluation. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic in the germline and somatic settings. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln92*) in the BRCA2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BRCA2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRCA2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37799). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The BRCA2 c.274C>T; p.Gln92Ter variant (rs80358529) is reported in the literature in individuals affected with or a family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (Kluska 2015, Perez-Ibave 2023). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 37799). The p.Gln92Ter variant is absent from the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant induces an early termination codon and is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Kluska A et al.

The p.Q92* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.274C>T), located in coding exon 2 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 274. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 2. This alteration was reported in a patient from a Polish cohort of women with early onset or familial breast and/or ovarian cancer (Kluska A et al. BMC Med Genomics, 2015 May;8:19). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
