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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -3 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.059016258).
• BP6: Variant 13-32338349-C-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr13-32338349-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 216245.We mark this variant Likely_benign, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_benign=2, Uncertain_significance=4}.

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.H1332Y variant (also known as c.3994C>T), located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 3994. The histidine at codon 1332 is replaced by tyrosine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is poorly 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. -

Significance: Likely benign

Collection Method: curation

According to the ClinGen ENIGMA BRCA2 v1.0.0 criteria we chose these criteria: PM2 (supporting pathogenic): not in gnomAD, BP1 (strong benign): missense outside a (potentially) clinically important functional domain AND no splicing predicted (SpliceAI ≤0.1). -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces histidine with tyrosine at codon 1332 of the BRCA2 protein (p.His1332Tyr). The histidine residue is weakly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between histidine and tyrosine. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with BRCA2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 216245). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The tyrosine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, suggesting that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. These predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. 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. -

Variant summary: BRCA2 c.3994C>T (p.His1332Tyr) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 228162 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.3994C>T has been reported in the literature in an individual(s) affected with breast cancer without evidence of causality (Lattimore_2021). This report does 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 publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 33113089). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 216245). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
