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: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.D946H variant (also known as c.2836G>C), located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 2836. The aspartic acid at codon 946 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

Variant summary: The BRCA2 c.2836G>C (p.Asp946His) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. This variant is not located in any known domain (InterPro). 4/5 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. This variant was found in 1/120672 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000083, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic BRCA2 variant (0.0007503). The variant has been reported in two individuals by two clinical labs without strong evidence for pathogenicity. Multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories have classified this variant as uncertain significance. Because of the absence of sufficient clinical information and the lack of functional studies, the variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance (VUS) until additional information becomes available. -

This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 946 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Asp946His). This variant is present in population databases (rs80358534, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of BRCA2-related conditions (PMID: 10923033). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 125996). 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. -
