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 breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:5
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineJul 18, 2018The p.Gln3026X variant in BRCA2 has been reported in >10 individuals with BRCA2- associated cancers (Ikeda 2001, Sekine 2001, Sugano 2008, Kang 2015, Arai 2018). It was also absent from large population studies. This nonsense variant leads t o a premature termination codon at position 3026, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Heterozygous loss of function of the BRCA2 gene i s an established disease mechanism in hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC ). In addition, this variant was classified as Pathogenic on Sep 8, 2016 by the ClinGen-approved ENIGMA expert panel (Variation ID 38207). In summary, the p.Gln 3026X variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for HBOC in an autos omal dominant manner. ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PVS1, PS4_Moderate, PM2. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJul 27, 2023ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 38207). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this premature translational stop signal on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (Invitae). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 11595708, 19016756, 22632462, 25863477, 26187060, 27732944, 28008555, 28205045). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln3026*) in the BRCA2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BRCA2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJan 07, 2019Variant summary: BRCA2 c.9076C>T (p.Gln3026X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (e.g. c.9093_9094delinsG/p.Thr3033fsX29, c.9097dupA/p.Thr3033fsX11). The variant was absent in 246292 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.9076C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer (Malone_2006, Kang_2015, Palmero_2018). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Co-occurrence with another pathogenic variant has been reported (BRCA2 c.6237_6238delGT, p.Leu2080ArgfsX4) possibly in a patient with Fanconi Anemia (BRCA Share database). One study showed this variant did not significantly affect splicing (Acedo_2012). Seven clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation and all classified this variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Additionally, this variant has been reported in individuals with prostate cancer (PMID: 29439820 (2018)) and pancreatic cancer (PMID: 27732944 (2016)). Experimental studies show conflicting evidence of this variant's impact on splicing (PMIDs: 25525159 (2015), 22632462 (2012)). This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org).

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesMay 31, 2017The BRCA2 c.9076C>T, p.Gln3026Ter variant (rs80359159) has been reported in a family with breast and ovarian cancer (Sekine 2001). Minigene analysis indicates that the variant generates a transcript that leads to a premature termination codon through a frameshift or nonsense codon, or a transcript lacking 2 exons and approximately 101 amino acids (Acedo 2012). The variant is classified as pathogenic in ClinVar (Variation ID: 38207), but not observed in the general population databases (1000 Genomes Project, Exome Variant Server, Genome Aggregation Database). The variant introduces a premature termination codon, and is predicted to result in a truncated protein or an absent transcript. Based on the above information, the variant is classified as pathogenic. References: Acedo A et al. Comprehensive splicing functional analysis of DNA variants of the BRCA2 gene by hybrid minigenes.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsApr 06, 2022The p.Q3026* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.9076C>T), located in coding exon 22 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 9076. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 22. This mutation has been identified in multiple hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer families (Sekine M et al. Clin Cancer Res. 2001 Oct;7(10):3144-50; Arai M et al. J. Hum. Genet. 2018 Apr;63(4):447-457; Momozowa Y et al. Nat Commun 2018 10;9(1):4083). Of note, this mutation is also designated as 9304C>T in published literature. 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. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthJan 04, 2022This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 23 of the BRCA2 gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. A minigene splicing assay has shown partial splicing defect (PMID: 22632462). This variant has been reported in at least a dozen individuals affected with breast or ovarian cancer (PMID: 11149425, 19016756, 22798144, 28008555, 30287823, 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_001520), in families suspected of being affected with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 11595708, 25863477) and in individuals affected with pancreatic or prostate cancer (PMID: 27732944, 31214711, 32980694). 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).
