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]

Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpSep 02, 2016Variant summary: The BRCA2 c.4977C>T (p.Ser1659Ser) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide, resulting in a synonymous change. One in silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant, and 5/5 in silico programs via Alamut predicting no significant effect on splicing, although these predictions have yet to be functionally assessed. This variant was found in 14/118706 control chromosomes, predominantly observed in the European (Non-Finnish) subpopulation at a frequency of 0.0002136 (14/65542). This frequency is slightly less than the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic BRCA2 variant (0.0007503), suggesting the variant could potentially be a benign polymorphism found primarily in the populations of European (Non-Finnish) origin. Additionally, the variant of interest has only been reported, to our knowledge, in one publication suggesting it was a somatic occurrence in a cell line, although information is limited. Furthermore, multiple reputable clinical laboratories have cited the variant with a classification of "likely benign/benign." In addition, a reputable database cites the variant to co-occur with another potentially pathogenic BRCA2 variant, c.6515C>A (p.Ser2172X) and in two LabCorp specimens, one with BRCA1 (p.K653fs*47) and one with a CHEK2 (c.1100delC), both of which are pathogenic. Therefore, taking all available lines of evidence into consideration, the variant of interest is classified as benign. -
