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: Likely benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This missense variant replaces glutamic acid with glycine at codon 1493 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been detected in a breast cancer case-control meta-analysis in 0/60466 cases and 1/53461 unaffected individuals (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_008219). This variant has been identified in 2/281792 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. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant is denoted BRCA2 c.4478A>G at the cDNA level, p.Glu1493Gly (E1493G) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Glutamic Acid to a Glycine (GAA>GGA). Using alternate nomenclature, this variant would be defined as BRCA2 4706A>G. This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. BRCA2 Glu1493Gly was not observed at a significant allele frequency in large population cohorts (NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, The 1000 Genomes Consortium 2015, Lek 2016). Since Glutamic Acid and Glycine differ in polarity, charge, size or other properties, this is considered a non-conservative amino acid substitution. BRCA2 Glu1493Gly occurs at a position that is not conserved and is located in the RAD51 and POLH binding domains (Roy 2012, Buisson 2014). In silico analyses are inconsistent regarding the effect this variant may have on protein structure and function. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether BRCA2 Glu1493Gly is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -

Significance: Benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant is considered benign. This variant is strongly associated with less severe personal and family histories of cancer, typical for individuals without pathogenic variants in this gene [PMID: 25085752]. This variant has been observed in trans with a known pathogenic variant in one or more individuals lacking clinical features consistent with gene-specific recessive disease. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: BRCA2 c.4478A>G (p.Glu1493Gly) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.6e-06 in 357318 control chromosomes (gnomAD and publication). 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.4478A>G in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Six ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: no assertion criteria provided

Collection Method: clinical testing

The BRCA2 c.4478A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Glu1493Gly. This variant was reported in a control and not in affected individuals in a breast cancer case-control study (Breast Cancer Association Consortium. 2021. PubMed ID: 33471991). This variant is reported in 0.0040% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD and has conflicting interpretations of pathogenicity in ClinVar ranging from uncertain to benign (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/126045). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1493 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Glu1493Gly). This variant is present in population databases (rs80358679, gnomAD 0.004%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRCA2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 126045). 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. -
