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]

The BRCA2 c.241T>A (p.Phe81Ile) variant has been reported in individuals with prostate cancer (PMID: 21952622 (2011)) and melanoma (PMID: 31464824 (2019)). It has also been reported in individuals with breast cancer as well as in reportedly healthy individuals in a breast cancer association study (PMID: 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/genes/BRCA2)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000053 (6/113686 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. 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 damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

Variant summary: BRCA2 c.241T>A (p.Phe81Ile) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.4e-05 in 251364 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.241T>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with various cancers, including prostate cancer (Kote-Jarai_2011, Johansson_2019), breast cancer (Dorling_2021) and cutaneous melanoma (Johansson_2019). The variant was also found at a carrier frequency of 0.0001365 in European American women over the age of 70 without history of cancer (FLOSSIES database). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported, and a minigene splicing assay demonstrated that the variant had no impact splicing (Tubeuf_2020). Seven ClinVar submitters have assessed the variant since 2014: five classified the variant as uncertain significance and two as likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

This missense variant replaces phenylalanine with isoleucine at codon 81 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). In a functional study, this variant showed 72% homology-directed repair capacity of wild-type BRCA2 (PMID: 35979650). This variant has been detected in a breast cancer case-control meta-analysis in 6/60463 cases and 2/53461 unaffected individuals (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_001289) and also in an individual affected with prostate cancer (PMID: 21952622). This variant also has been reported in 1 individual age 70 years or older without cancer in the FLOSSIES database and in 6/251364 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. -
