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 variant does not alter splicing; Observed in a family with two cases of breast cancer (Katagiri et al., 1998); Also known as 9181+5G>T; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 9609997)

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.8953+5G>T intronic variant results from a G to T substitution 5 nucleotides after coding exon 21 in the BRCA2 gene. This variant was reported (as IVS22+5G>T) in one Japanese family with two cases of early onset breast cancer (Katagiri T et al. J. Hum. Genet., 1998;43:42-8). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will not have any significant effect on splicing. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear.
