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 Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 13-32338680-C-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr13-32338680-C-G is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 91820.Status of the report is reviewed_by_expert_panel, 3 stars. Variant chr13-32338680-C-G is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	May 19, 2020	This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 11 of the BRCA2 gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. 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. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Jan 06, 2023	The p.S1442* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.4325C>G), located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 4325. This changes the amino acid from a serine to a stop codon within coding exon 10. 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. -

This pathogenic variant is denoted BRCA2 c.4325C>G at the cDNA level and p.Ser1442Ter (S1442X) at the protein level. The substitution creates a nonsense variant, which changes a Serine to a premature stop codon (TCA>TGA), and is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This variant is also known as 4553C>G using alternate nomenclature. Although this variant has not, to our knowledge, been reported in the literature, it is considered pathogenic. -

This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 91820). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of BRCA2-related conditions (PMID: 29446198). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser1442*) 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). -
