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]

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces threonine with isoleucine at codon 207 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). RNA assays have shown that this variant results in increased exon 7 skipping (21-55% of transcripts), which occurs at a low level in control cells (11% of transcripts). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast/ovarian cancer (PMID: 22711857, 25186627), colorectal cancer (PMID: 27978560), and in an unaffected individual (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_007247). This variant has been identified in 4/251284 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. -

The p.T207I variant (also known as c.620C>T), located in coding exon 6 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 620. This alteration has been identified in individuals diagnosed with ovarian and colorectal cancer (Alsop K et al. J. Clin. Oncol., 2012 Jul;30:2654-63; Pearlman R et al. JAMA Oncol 2017 Apr;3(4):464-471). In addition, this variant was identified in a cohort of 4034 individuals representing 12 cancer types (Lu C et al. Nat Commun, 2015 Dec;6:10086) and was reported in 0/60,466 breast cancer cases and in 1/53,461 controls in another large study (Dorling et al. N Engl J Med. 2021 02;384:428-439). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, as a missense variant, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. In silico splice site analysis for this alteration, however, is inconclusive. RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in an incomplete splice defect; the clinical impact of this abnormal splicing is unknown at this time (Di Giacomo D et al. Hum. Mutat. 2013 Nov; 34(11):1547-57; Fraile-Bethencourt E. J Pathol. 2019 Aug;248(4):409-420; Ambry internal data). Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000035 (4/113644 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast/ovarian cancer (PMIDs: 22711857 (2012), 25186627 (2015), 26689913 (2015)) or colorectal cancer (PMID: 27978560 (2016)). In vitro splicing studies report that this variant interferes with proper BRCA2 mRNA splicing and leads to incomplete skipping of exon 7 (PMIDs: 23983145 (2013), 26761715 (2016), 30883759 (2019)). 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. -

Variant summary: BRCA2 c.620C>T (p.Thr207Ile) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. Consensus agreement among computation tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.6e-05 in 251284 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.620C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Breast, Ovarian, and Colon Cancer (Alsop_2012, Tung_2014, Lu_2015). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 22711857, 18724707, 23983145, 25186627, 26689913, 26761715, 27978560). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 186155). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 207 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Thr207Ile). This variant is present in population databases (rs41293471, gnomAD 0.004%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast, ovarian or colorectal cancer (PMID: 22711857, 26689913, 27978560). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 186155). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. Studies have shown that this missense change is associated with inconclusive levels of altered splicing (internal data). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
