The NM_000059.4(BRCA2):c.8850G>C (p.Lys2950Asn) 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. Splicing prediction tools (SpliceAI) predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Benign/Likely Benign (★★). Other variants at the same amino acid position have been reported in ClinVar (not pathogenic): p.K2950E: Uncertain_significance (ClinVar VariationId 2428161, 1 star); p.K2950= (synonymous): Likely_benign (ClinVar VariationId 136571, 3 stars); p.K2950N: Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity (ClinVar VariationId 52692); p.K2950R: Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity (ClinVar VariationId 233050); p.K2950T: Likely_benign (ClinVar VariationId 822764, 1 star) 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

Specifications for BRCA2 are available in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry and recommended for reference when assigning criteria.

Classification was made for transcript:

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -2 points.

Apply	Criterion Code & Title / Strength	Strength	Rationale / Clinical Context
	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.
	BP6Reputable source reports benign		ClinVar 2-star benign — strong (BP6); ClinVar germline classification: Benign/Likely Benign, 2 star(s).
