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 missense variant replaces serine with glycine at codon 749 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has been reported individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 33113089, 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_001704) and in individuals affected with stomach adenocarcinoma or gastric cancer (PMID: 26689913, 32426482). This variant has been identified in 1/251286 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.

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.2245A>G (p.Ser749Gly) 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 4e-06 in 251286 control chromosomes in gnomAD. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.2245A>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with gastric cancer and breast cancer (examples: Lu_2015, Suzuki_2020, Lattimore_2021). These reports however 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: 26689913, 33113089, 32426482). Seven submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 (VUS: n=6; Likely benign: n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.

This missense variant replaces serine with glycine at codon 749 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has been reported individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 33113089, 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_001704) and in individuals affected with stomach adenocarcinoma or gastric cancer (PMID: 26689913, 32426482).

The BRCA2 c.2245A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ser749Gly. This variant (also known as 2473A>G) was reported in individuals with a history of gastric and breast cancers (Suzuki et al 2020. PubMed ID: 32426482; Supplementary Table 3, Lattimore et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 33113089; Supplementary Data 14, Lu et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26689913). This variant is reported in 0.00088% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/13-32910737-A-G). In ClinVar, this variant has conflicting interpretations, ranging from 'likely benign' to 'uncertain' (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/51259/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 749 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Ser749Gly). This variant is present in population databases (rs80358495, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer and gastric cancer (PMID: 25348012, 26689913, 32426482). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 51259). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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.
