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]

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance:Pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Asp1547*) in the BRCA2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Loss-of-function variants in BRCA2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). This variant has been observed in individuals affected with¬†breast or ovarian cancers (PMID: 19805903, 26187060). This variant is also known as 4866insT and c.4638_4639insT in the literature. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID:¬†51686). -

Significance:Pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: The BRCA2 c.4638dupT (p.Asp1547X) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent BRCA2 protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. A deletion of the same nucleotide has been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory, and truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (e.g. c.4647_4650delAGAG, p.Phe1546fsX22; c.4707C>A, p.Tyr1569X; c.4712_4713delAG, p.Glu1571fsX3). One in silico tool predicts a damaging outcome for this variant. This variant is absent in 120516 control chromosomes. The variant was detected in an affected individual in the literature (Vaidyanathan_2009) and multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified pathogenic. -

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health

Significance:Pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant inserts 1 nucleotide in exon 11 of the BRCA2 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with ovarian cancer in the literature (PMID 19805903). 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. Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
