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 proline at codon 1221 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies have shown that the variant attenuates the inhibitory activity of BRC2 repeats on RAD51 binding to double-stranded DNA, reduces homology-directed DNA repair activity, and partially rescues BRCA2-deficient cells in response to DNA damaging agents (PMID: 19747923, 36098506). However, the clinical relevance of these observations is not known. This variant has been reported in a breast cancer case-control study in 1/53460 unaffected individuals and absent in 60466 cases (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_002594). This variant has been identified in 3/250308 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. -

The p.S1221P variant (also known as c.3661T>C), located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 3661. The serine at codon 1221 is replaced by proline, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Variant summary: BRCA2 c.3661T>C (p.Ser1221Pro) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the 2nd BRCA2 repeat (IPR002093) of the encoded protein sequence. The BRCA2 repeat region consists of eight repeats (BRC) that are critical for binding to RAD51, where BRC1-4 and BRC7-8 are highly conserved and participate in Rad51 binding (PMID 10551859). Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 250308 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.3661T>C in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer has been reported. A co-occurrence with another pathogenic variant has been described (BRCA2 c.7007G>A, p.Arg2336His; in the UMD BRCA2 database), however no additional clinical information was provided. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, however, does not allow convincing conclusions about the variant effect (Tal_2009). Six other clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation, and classified the variant as VUS (n=4) or likely benign (n=2). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

The BRCA2 c.3661T>C (p.Ser1221Pro) variant has been reported in an individual with breast cancer (PMID: 34326862 (2021)). This variant has also been identified in a reportedly healthy individual (PMID: 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/genes/BRCA2)). An experimental study reports this variant affects RAD51 binding however further investigation is required to determine the overall impact on BRCA2 protein function (PMIDs: 12967658 (2003)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000026 (3/113348 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 conflicting predictions that this variant is benign or damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
