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]

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

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. -

The p.Ser1538Ser variant is not expected to have clinical significance because it does not alter an amino acid residue and is not located near a splice junction. It has been reported in the literature in 3/7256 proband chromosomes of individuals with breast cancer; however, no control chromosomes were tested to establish the frequency of the variant in the general population (Borg 2010, Caux-Moncoutier 2011). It is listed in the dbSNP database as coming from a "clinical source" (ID#: rs45520945) with a global minor allele frequency (MAF) of 0.001, increasing the likelihood that this is a low frequency benign variant. The variant was also identified in the UMD (x6), BIC (x1), Exome Server and the BOCs databases. In the UMD database, this variant was identified in one individual with a second pathogenic variant in the BRCA2 gene, c.1327G>T (p.Glu443X), increasing the likelihood that the p.Ser1538Ser variant is a benign alteration. In summary, based on the above information, we cannot determine the clinical significance of this variant is classified as benign. -
