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.K1180N variant (also known as c.3540G>C), located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 3540. The lysine at codon 1180 is replaced by asparagine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration has been reported as a variant of unknown significance in an individual with a personal history of ovarian cancer from a cohort of 1191 cancer index patients who underwent clinical evaluation and testing with multigene panels (Chan GHJ et al. Oncotarget, 2018 Jul;9:30649-30660). In another study, this alteration was detected in a patient diagnosed with breast cancer at age 51 (Wu H et al. Hum Hered, 2019 Feb;84:160-169). 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. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

In the published literature, this variant has been reported in individuals with breast cancer (PMID: 32101877 (2019), 35918668 (2022)) and ovarian cancer (PMID: 30093976 (2018)). In a large-scale breast cancer association study, the variant was observed in an individual with breast cancer as well as in an unaffected individual (PMID: 33471991 (2021)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000004 (1/250916 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. 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 sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1180 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Lys1180Asn). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with ovarian and/or breast cancer (PMID: 30093976, 32101877, 35918668). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 220061). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) 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. -
