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 testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthAug 15, 2023This missense variant replaces glutamic acid with aspartic acid at codon 3377 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 breast, colorectal, pancreatic, and prostate cancer case-control studies, in both cohorts, in which disease association could not be established (PMID: 14973102, 30287823, 31214711, 32980694, 33309985, 33471991). This variant has also been reported in an individual affected with ovarian cancer (PMID: 33078592). This variant has not been identified 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. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJul 06, 2015This variant is denoted BRCA2 c.10131A>C at the cDNA level, p.Glu3377Asp (E3377D) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Glutamic Acid to an Aspartic Acid (GAA>GAC). This variant, also known as BRCA2 10359A>C using alternate nomenclature, has been observed in 3 out of 645 women with a history of breast cancer and in 0 of 319 control subjects in single case-control study (Suter 2004). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. BRCA2 Glu3377Asp was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Since Glutamic Acid and Aspartic Acid share similar properties, this is considered a conservative amino acid substitution. BRCA2 Glu3377Asp occurs at a position that is not conserved and is located within a region that interacts with RAD51 (Roy 2012). In silico analyses predict that this variant is unlikely to alter protein structure or function. Based on currently available information, it is unclear whether BRCA2 Glu3377Asp is pathogenic or benign. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJul 27, 2023The p.E3377D variant (also known as c.10131A>C), located in coding exon 26 of the BRCA2 gene, results from an A to C substitution at nucleotide position 10131. The glutamic acid at codon 3377 is replaced by aspartic acid, an amino acid with highly similar properties. In one study, this alteration was observed in 3/645 breast cancer patients and absent in 342 women with benign breast disease and 319 unaffected controls of Chinese ancestry (Suter NM et al. Cancer Epidemiol. Biomarkers Prev., 2004 Feb;13:181-9). In another study, this alteration was observed in 2/7051 unselected female breast cancer patients and was also observed in 3/11241 female controls and 6/12490 male controls of Japanese ancestry (Momozawa Y et al. Nat Commun, 2018 10;9:4083). This variant was also observed in 1/3251 individuals who met eligibility criteria for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome (Lerner-Ellis J et al. J Cancer Res Clin Oncol, 2021 Mar;147:871-879). This amino acid position is poorly 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. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpSep 26, 2019Variant summary: BRCA2 c.10131A>C (p.Glu3377Asp) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 251898 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.10131A>C has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer and in controls (Suter_2004, Momozawa_2018). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Five ClinVar submissions (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Malignant tumor of breast Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The BRCA2 p.Glu3377Asp variant was identified in 5 of 15,392 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.0003) from individuals or families with breast cancer and was present in 9 of 48,100 control chromosomes (frequency: 0.0002) from healthy individuals (Momozawa 2018, Suter 2004). The variant was identified in dbSNP (rs1064793835) as “with uncertain significance allele”, ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by Invitae, Ambry Genetics, GeneDx, Integrated Genetics and 2 other submitters) and LOVD 3.0 (observed 3x). The variant was not identified in UMD-LSDB. The variant was not identified in the following control databases: the Exome Aggregation Consortium (August 8th 2016), or the Genome Aggregation Database (Feb 27, 2017). The p.Glu3377 residue is not conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and 1 of 4 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing; this is not very predictive of pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -
Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 02, 2024This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 3377 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Glu3377Asp). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 14973102, 30287823, 30415210). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 419387). 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%. 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. -
