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]

The BRCA2 c.6469C>T; p.Gln2157Ter variant (rs397507859) is reported in the literatures in individuals and families affected with hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer (Bhaskaran 2019, Rebbeck 2016, Rebbeck 2018, Sun 2017). It is reported by multiple laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID: 52112), and is classified as pathogenic by the evidence-based network for the interpretation of germline mutant alleles (ENIGMA) expert panel (see link to ENIGMA consortium classification criteria). This variant is also absent from the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant induces an early termination codon and is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic.

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant is denoted BRCA2 c.6469C>T at the cDNA level and p.Gln2157Ter (Q2157X) at the protein level. The substitution creates a nonsense variant, which changes a Glutamine to a premature stop codon (CAA>TAA), and is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This variant, also denoted BRCA2 6697C>T using alternate nomenclature, has been reported in association with hereditary breast/ovarian cancer and is considered pathogenic (Zuradelli 2010). -

The p.Q2157* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.6469C>T), located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 6469. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 10. This alteration (designated as 6697C>T) has been reported to co-occur with a BRCA1 mutation (Zuradelli M et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat., 2010 Nov;124:251-8). This alteration was also detected in a cohort of 8085 consecutive unselected Chinese breast cancer patients who underwent multi-gene panel testing (Sun J et al. Clin. Cancer Res., 2017 Oct;23:6113-6119). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, 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. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

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. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 33573335, 31336956, 28724667, 27836010, 27062684, 20373018) and has been identified in 3 families among the CIMBA participants (PMID: 29446198). Some of these individuals also carried a pathogenic variant in the BRCA1 gene, which could explain the observed phenotype (PMID: 20373018, 31336956). 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. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln2157*) 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). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with a personal and/or family history of breast or ovarian cancer (PMID: 20373018, 28724667, 29446198, 30702160). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 52112). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
