The NM_000059.4(BRCA2):c.3987A>T(p.Arg1329Ser) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000279 in 1,432,974 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 14/20 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R1329I) has been classified as Likely benign.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome    Uncertain:2Benign:1 
This missense variant replaces arginine with serine at codon 1329 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). A functional study has reported that this variant does not impact BRCA2 function as assayed by response to PARP inhibitors (PMID: 32444794). This variant has been detected in a breast cancer case-control meta-analysis in 0/60463 cases and 1/53461 unaffected individuals (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_002996). This variant has been identified in 1/227200 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. -
Missense variant in a coldspot region where missense variants are very unlikely to be pathogenic (PMID:31911673). -
The p.R1329S variant (also known as c.3987A>T and 4215A>T), located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from an A to T substitution at nucleotide position 3987. The arginine at codon 1329 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. 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. -

BRCA2-related disorder    Uncertain:1 
The BRCA2 c.3987A>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg1329Ser. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.00094% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/13-32912479-A-T). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
not provided    Uncertain:1 
This variant is denoted BRCA2 c.3987A>T at the cDNA level, p.Arg1329Ser (R1329S) at the protein level, and results in the change of an Arginine to a Serine (AGA>AGT). This variant, also known as BRCA2 c.4215A>T by alternate nomenclature, has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. BRCA2 Arg1329Ser 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 Arginine and Serine differ in some properties, this is considered a semi-conservative amino acid substitution. BRCA2 Arg1329Ser occurs at a position that is not conserved across species and is located in the RAD51 binding domain (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 Arg1329Ser is pathogenic or benign. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -
