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]

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.2127G>C alters a non-conserved nucleotide resulting in a synonymous change. 4/4 computational 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 6.9e-05 in 245968 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00099 within the East Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within East Asian control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 1.32 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in BRCA2 causing Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer phenotype (0.00075), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of East Asian origin. The variant has been described in several sequencing studies in patients of Eastern Asian origin consistent with the occurrences seen in the gnomAD database. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation, four of whom classified the variant as benign (n=4)/likely benign (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign.

Significance:Likely benign

Review Status:no assertion criteria provided

Collection Method:clinical testing

The BRCA2 p.Leu709Leu variant is not expected to have clinical significance because it does not result in a change of amino acid and is not located in a known consensus splice site. In addition, in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) do not predict a difference in splicing.The p.Leu709Leu variant was identified in the literature in 3 of 3330 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.001) from individuals with breast cancer and was not identified in 972 control chromosomes from these studies (Kim 2006, Suter 2004). The variant was not identified in any databases searched, including: dbSNP, NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (Exome Variant Server), Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC), HGMD, LOVD, COSMIC, ClinVar, GeneInsight VariantWire, BIC, and UMD. 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 predicted benign.
