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 c.3160_3163del (p.Asp1054Ilefs*5) variant in the BRCA2 gene is located on the exon 11 and is predicted to cause shift of reading frame that introduces a premature translation termination codon (p.Asp1054Ilefs*5), resulting in an absent or disrupted protein product. The variant has been reported in individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 31853058, 28281021). Loss-of-function variants of BRCA2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 8988179, 11897832, 29446198). The variant is reported in ClinVar as pathogenic (ID: 37824) and reviewed by the expert panel. The variant is absent in the general population database (gnomAD). Therefore, the c.3160_3163del (p.Asp1054Ilefs*5) variant of BRCA2 has been classified as pathogenic.

The BRCA2 c.3160_3163del (p.Asp1054Ilefs*5) variant (also known as 3388del4, 3159_3162delAGAT) alters the translational reading frame of the BRCA2 mRNA and causes the premature termination of BRCA2 protein synthesis. In the published literature, this variant has been reported in individuals with personal and/or family history of breast/ovarian and unspecified hereditary cancer (PMIDs: 29446198 (2018), 28281021 (2017)). This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic.

The BRCA2 c.3160_3163del; p.Asp1054IlefsTer5 variant (rs80359371, ClinVar Variation ID: 37824) is reported in the literature in cohorts with suspicion of breast and ovarian cancer (Li 2020, Rebbeck 2018). This variant is absent from the Genome Aggregation Database (v2.1.1), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant causes a frameshift by deleting four nucleotides, so it is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Li H et al.

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.3160_3163delGATA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of 4 nucleotides at nucleotide positions 3160 to 3163, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.D1054Ifs*5). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant deletes 4 nucleotides in exon 11 of the BRCA2 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been detected in at least one individual affected with breast cancer and has been reported in one family among the CIMBA participants (PMID: 29446198; Color internal data). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BRCA2 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Asp1054Ilefs*5) in the BRCA2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BRCA2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with BRCA2-related conditions (PMID: 10923033, 21520333). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37824). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
