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]

The BRCA2 c.1838T>G (p.Leu613Arg) variant has been reported in the published literature in an individual affected with breast cancer (PMID: 12442275 (2002)). In addition, this variant has been identified in the somatic state in colorectal tumor samples (PMIDs: 28591715 (2017) and 33054725 (2020)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00051 (17/33368 chromosomes in Admixed American subpopulation (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is higher than would generally be expected for pathogenic variants in this gene. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant.

This alteration is classified as likely 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.

Variant summary: BRCA2 c.1838T>G (p.Leu613Arg) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 7.4e-05 in 241822 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00051 within the Latino subpopulation in the gnomAD database. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in BRCA2 causing Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (7.4e-05 vs 0.00075), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1838T>G has been reported in the literature in one Latino (Mexican) patient with breast cancer who had positive family history of breast (a sister and a paternal cousin) and other cancers (leukemia and prostate cancer) (Ruiz-Flores_2002), in a cohort of patients with MSI-high colorectal cancer (Deihimi_2017), and in a prostate cancer patient without strong evidence for causality (Giri_2022). These reports 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: 12442275, 28591715, 35666082). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 135791). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.

The BRCA2 c.1838T>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Leu613Arg. This variant (also reported as c.2066T>G) has been observed in a Latino individual with breast cancer who also had a family history of prostate cancer and leukemia (Ruiz-Flores et al. 2002. PubMed ID: 12442275). This variant is reported in 0.051% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD and has conflicting interpretations regarding its pathogenicity in ClinVar, ranging from likely benign to uncertain (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/135791/). Although we suspect that this variant may be benign, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.

The BRCA2 p.Leu613Arg variant was identified in 1 of 64 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.02) from individuals or families with breast cancer and was present in 1 of 130 control chromosomes (frequency: 0.008) from healthy individuals (Ruiz-Flores 2002). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs587780646) as "With other allele" and ClinVar (classified as likely benign by SCRP and GeneDx; and as uncertain significance by Invitae, Ambry Genetics and three other submitters). The variant was not identified in LOVD 3.0 or UMD-LSDB. The variant was identified in control databases in 17 of 236466 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00007 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the Latino population in 17 of 32544 chromosomes (freq: 0.0005), while the variant was not observed in the African, Other, European, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, Finnish, or South Asian populations. The p.Leu613 residue is not conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein; this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance.
