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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJul 31, 2017This variant is denoted BRCA2 c.9730G>T at the cDNA level, p.Val3244Phe (V3244F) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Valine to a Phenylalanine (GTC>TTC). Using alternate nomenclature, this variant would be defined as BRCA2 9958G>T. This variant has been observed in at least one individual with breast cancer (Li 2017). BRCA2 Val3244Phe was not observed at a significant allele frequency in large population cohorts (NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, The 1000 Genomes Consortium 2015, Lek 2016). Since Valine and Phenylalanine differ in some properties, this is considered a semi-conservative amino acid substitution. BRCA2 Val3244Phe occurs at a position that is not conserved and is not located in a known functional domain. In silico analyses predict that this variant is unlikely to alter protein structure or function. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether BRCA2 Val3244Phe is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpAug 15, 2016Variant summary: The BRCA2 c.9730G>T (p.Val3244Phe) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. 3/4 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant (SNPs&GO not captured due to low reliability index). This variant was found in 1/121354 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000082, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic BRCA2 variant (0.0007503). In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as uncertain significance/likely neutral. The variant of interest has not, to our knowledge, been reported in affected individuals via publications and/or reputable databases/clinical diagnostic laboratories; nor evaluated for functional impact by in vivo/vitro studies. Because of the absence of clinical information and the lack of functional studies, the variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance (VUS) until additional information becomes available. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoOct 11, 2022The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000012 (3/251200 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in an individual affected with breast cancer (PMID: 28664449 (2017)). It also has been reported in unaffected individuals in a large breast cancer screening study (PMID: 32467295 (2020)). Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
Breast-ovarian cancer, familial, susceptibility to, 2 Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthDec 18, 2023This missense variant replaces valine with phenylalanine at codon 3244 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with breast cancer (PMID: 28664449) and an individual affected with prostate cancer (PMID: 36922933). This variant has been identified in 3/251200 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJan 30, 2023The p.V3244F variant (also known as c.9730G>T), located in coding exon 26 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 9730. The valine at codon 3244 is replaced by phenylalanine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been reported in 1/313 unselected breast cancer patients from the Chinese Han population (Li G et al. J. Cancer Res. Clin. Oncol., 2017 Oct;143:2011-2024). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpDec 09, 2023This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 3244 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Val3244Phe). This variant is present in population databases (rs11571831, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 28664449). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 38263). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this missense change on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (Invitae). 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. -
