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: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This missense variant replaces serine with alanine at codon 2172 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). 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 not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has not been identified 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

The c.6513_6514delGTinsCG variant (also known as p.S2172A), located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from an in-frame deletion of GT and insertion of CG at nucleotide positions 6513 to 6514. This results in the substitution of the serine residue for an alanine residue at codon 2172, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be neutral by in silico analysis (Choi Y et al. PLoS ONE. 2012; 7(10):e46688). Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: The BRCA2 c.6513_6514delinsCG (p.Ser2172Ala) variant involves the alteration of a dinucleotide non-conserved sequence (GT>CG). Five out of five in silico analyses predict a benign outcome. However, these predictions have yet to be functionally assessed. This variant was not observed in 263870 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The variant of interest has not, to our knowledge, been reported in affected individuals via publications. Multiple ClinVar submissions from clinical diagnostic laboratories (evaluation after 2014) classify the variant as "uncertain significance." Note, the single nucleotide change, c.6514T>G, causes the same missense change and has been reported by a clinical diagnostic laboratory (ClinVar submission) and a reputable database as "uncertain significance." Based on the available evidence, the variant of interest has been classified as a "Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS)," until additional information becomes available. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 2172 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Ser2172Ala). Information on the frequency of this variant in the gnomAD database is not available, as this variant may be reported differently in the database. 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: 419761). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function outputs the following: PolyPhen-2: "Not Available". The alanine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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. -
