The NM_000059.4(BRCA2):c.9285C>A (p.Asp3095Glu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant is absent from the gnomAD population database at sites with sufficient sequencing coverage. In-silico predictor (REVEL) classifies this variant as likely damaging/oncogenic. Splicing prediction tools (SpliceAI) predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV000953178: Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects BRCA2 function (PMID:32444794).". A different missense at the same amino acid position has been reported as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic in ClinVar: p.D3095G: Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity (ClinVar VariationId 409512) Other variants at the same amino acid position have been reported in ClinVar (not pathogenic): p.D3095A: Uncertain_significance (ClinVar VariationId 1330142, 1 star); p.D3095= (synonymous): Likely_benign (ClinVar VariationId 184910, 3 stars) The same amino acid change has been reported as oncogenic or likely oncogenic in a clinical somatic variant database. This exact variant is curated in the UniProt human variants database as Uncertain Significance; it is also listed as a COSMIC curated somatic variant.

Genes affected
BRCA2 (HGNC:1101): (BRCA2 DNA repair associated) The product of this gene in involved in maintenance of genome stability. It is involved in double-strand break repair pathways during mitotic and meiotic homologous recombination and functions in protecting DNA replication forks. The encoded protein contains sites for interactions with PALB2 and EMSY and an N-terminal DNA binding domain. It also contains a RAD51 binding domain with multiple components. It has multiple BRC repeats, an alpha helix domain, oligonucleotide binding folds, and a tower-like domain. It has a nuclear localization signal and a phosphorylation site for cyclin-dependent kinase. The C-terminus of the protein can bind single-stranded and double-stranded DNA. The product of this gene interacts with multiple proteins, including RAD51. It is involved in recruiting RAD51 filaments to DNA double-strand break sites and also in cytoplasmic division. It also acts as a tumor suppressor. Mutations in this gene or decreased expression have been implicated in multiple tumor types, including breast, ovarian, pancreatic, prostate and other cancers.

Classification according to ACMG Germline Pathogenicity v2019

Classification was made for transcript:

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 21 points.

PS1Same amino acid change as known pathogenic
Same AA change, ≥2-star ClinVar pathogenic — very strong (PS1); ClinVar contains 1 P/LP entry with the same amino acid change (highest review level: 2 stars).
PS3Functional studies show damaging effect
Well-established functional study supports damaging effect (PS3); SCV000953178: Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects BRCA2 function (PMID: 32444794).
PM2Absent/extremely low in population databases
Absent from gnomAD (AD/XL gene) — PM2; Absent from gnomAD at well-covered site (MOI: AD+AR) (base 0.0001, raised to 0.000139 by highest known P/LP ClinVar AF 0.000139) — PM2 moderate.
PM5Novel missense at known pathogenic residue
Different pathogenic missense at same AA residue in ClinVar (PM5); ClinVar contains a germline Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic entry at the same amino acid position with a different amino acid change: p.D3095G: Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity (ClinVar VariationId 409512); Other variants at the same amino acid residue (not pathogenic): p.D3095A: Uncertain_significance (ClinVar VariationId 1330142, 1 star); p.D3095= (synonymous): Likely_benign (ClinVar VariationId 184910, 3 stars)
PP3Computational evidence supports damaging effect
Germline meta computational scorer (REVEL/MetaRNN/BayesDel) predicts damaging effect — supporting evidence (PP3); Splicing verdict: not pathogenic.; Germline computational verdict: pathogenic (Supporting).
PP5Reputable source reports pathogenic
ClinVar 2-star pathogenic — strong (PP5); ClinVar germline classification: Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic, 2 star(s).
