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]

Submissions by phenotype
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Feb 04, 2023 | The p.R2318G variant (also known as c.6952C>G), located in coding exon 12 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 6952. The arginine at codon 2318 is replaced by glycine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. - |
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health | Feb 19, 2021 | This missense variant replaces arginine with glycine at codon 2318 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, 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. - |
Breast and/or ovarian cancer Uncertain:1

Malignant tumor of esophagus Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Foundation for Research in Genetics and Endocrinology, FRIGE's Institute of Human Genetics | Feb 21, 2022 | A heterozygous missense variation in exon 13 of the BRCA2 gene that results in the amino acid substitution of Glycine for Arginine at codon 2318 was detected. The observed variant c.6952C>G (p.Arg2318Gly) has not been reported in the 1000 genomes and gnomAD databases. The in silico prediction of the variant is probably damaging by PolyPhen-2 (HumDiv), damaging by SIFT, LRT and MutationTaster2. The reference codon is conserved across primates. In summary, the variant meets our criteria to be classified as a variant of uncertain significance. - |
Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal carcinoma Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Foundation for Research in Genetics and Endocrinology, FRIGE's Institute of Human Genetics | Feb 21, 2022 | A heterozygous missense variation in exon 13 of the BRCA2 gene that results in the amino acid substitution of Glycine for Arginine at codon 2318 was detected. The observed variant c.6952C>G (p.Arg2318Gly) is documented as a variant of uncertain significance in hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome in the ClinVar database (VCV000409599.10). The variant has not been reported in the 1000 genomes and gnomAD database respectively. The in silico predictions of the variant are probably damaging by PolyPhen-2 and damaging by SIFT, MutationTaster2, and LRT. The reference codon is conserved across species. In summary, the variant meets our criteria to be classified as a variant of uncertain significance. - |
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | GeneDx | Nov 18, 2016 | This variant is denoted BRCA2 c.6952C>G at the cDNA level, p.Arg2318Gly (R2318G) at the protein level, and results in the change of an Arginine to a Glycine (CGA>GGA). Using alternate nomenclature, this variant would be defined as BRCA2 7180C>G. This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. BRCA2 Arg2318Gly was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, suggesting it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Since Arginine and Glycine differ in polarity, charge, size or other properties, this is considered a non-conservative amino acid substitution. BRCA2 Arg2318Gly occurs at a position that is conserved across species and is not located in a known functional domain. In silico analyses are inconsistent regarding the effect this variant may have on protein structure and function. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether BRCA2 Arg2318Gly is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. - |

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp | Oct 20, 2022 | This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 2318 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Arg2318Gly). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). 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: 409599). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA2 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. - |
