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]

Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Published functional studies are inconclusive: homology directed DNA repair activity in both the indeterminate and benign ranges (Guidugli et al., 2018; Hart et al., 2019); Also known as 9003G>C; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 19043619, 29394989, 31706072, 28202063, 30675319, 25479140, 29884841, 12228710)

In the published literature, this variant has been reported in individuals with pancreatic cancer (PMID: 25479140 (2015)), and breast cancer (PMID: 28202063 (2017), 31706072 (2020)). In a large breast cancer association study, this variant was reported in a healthy individual (PMID: 33471991 (2021), https://databases.lovd.nl/shared/variants/BRCA2). Experimental evidence suggests this variant is not detrimental to homology directed DNA repair function in vitro (PMID: 29394989 (2018)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000004 (1/250674 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded conflicting predictions that this variant is benign or damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant.

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity.

This sequence change replaces glutamine, which is neutral and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 2925 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Gln2925His). This variant is present in population databases (rs80359136, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer or pancreatic cancer (PMID: 25479140, 28202063, 31706072). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 52678). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect BRCA2 function (PMID: 29394989). 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.
