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]

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 17, 2023The p.M2493R variant (also known as c.7478T>G), located in coding exon 14 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a T to G substitution at nucleotide position 7478. The methionine at codon 2493 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with similar properties. In one study, this variant was observed in 1/1525 unrelated patients who had BRCA1/2 genetic testing due to a personal and/or family history suspicious for Hereditary Breast and/or Ovarian Cancer (Caux-Moncoutier V et al. Hum. Mutat., 2011 Mar;32:325-34). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 21, 2023This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 2493 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Met2493Arg). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with personal and/or family history of breast cancer (PMID: 21120943). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 236904). 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 with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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. -
