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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 38246). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with BRCA2-related conditions (PMID: 21520333). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu3175*) 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). -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: BRCA2 c.9523G>T (p.Glu3175X) 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. Variants downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant was absent in 251358 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.9523G>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with breast and-or ovarian cancer (e.g. Heramb_2018, Olafsdottir_2020). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Four submitters, including an expert panel (ENIGMA), have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.E3175* variant (also known as c.9523G>T), located in coding exon 25 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 9523. This changes the amino acid from a glutamic acid to a stop codon within coding exon 25. In a large, clinic-based BRCA1/2 testing cohort in Norway, this variant was detected in 1 family (Heramb C et al. Hered Cancer Clin Pract, 2018 Jan;16:3). This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In addition to the information 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. -
