Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000059.4(BRCA2):c.7980T>G(p.Tyr2660*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. Y2660Y) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Breast-ovarian cancer, familial, susceptibility to, 2 Pathogenic:2
Variant allele predicted to encode a truncated non-functional protein.
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2
This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 18 of the BRCA2 gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with ovarian cancer and at least one suspected hereditary breast and ovarian cancer family (PMID: 26833046, 32098980). 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.
The p.Y2660* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.7980T>G), located in coding exon 17 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a T to G substitution at nucleotide position 7980. This changes the amino acid from a tyrosine to a stop codon within coding exon 17. This variant has been identified in individuals with a personal and/or family history suggestive of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome (Pritchard CC et al. N Engl J Med, 2016 Aug;375:443-53; Nielsen HR et al. Fam Cancer, 2016 Oct;15:507-12; Rumford M et al. Sci Rep, 2020 Feb;10:3390; Olafsdottir EJ et al. Br J Cancer, 2020 Nov;123:1608-1615; George SHL et al. JAMA Netw Open, 2021 Mar;4:e210307). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). 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.
not provided Pathogenic:1
The BRCA2 p.Tyr2660* variant was identified in 1 of 59400 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.00002) from individuals or families with breast or ovarian cancer (Rebbeck 2018). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs397507949) as "With Pathogenic, Uncertain significance allele”, ClinVar (classified as pathogenic by Color, ENIGMA and CIMBA), LOVD 3.0 (4x as pathogenic), UMD-LSDB (1x as causal variant), and in ARUP Laboratories (definitely pathogenic), databases. The variant was not identified in COGR, Cosmic, BIC Database, or Zhejiang University, databases. The variant was not identified in the following control databases: the Exome Aggregation Consortium (August 8th 2016), or the Genome Aggregation Database (Feb 27, 2017). The p.Tyr2660* variant leads to a premature stop codon at position 2660 which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein and loss of function. Loss of function variants of the BRCA2 gene are an established mechanism of disease in breast or ovarian cancer and is the type of variant expected to cause the disorder. In summary, based on the above information this variant meets our laboratory’s criteria to be classified as pathogenic.
