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]

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.S1632R variant (also known as c.4894A>C), located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from an A to C substitution at nucleotide position 4894. The serine at codon 1632 is replaced by arginine, 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. -

The BRCA2 c.4894A>C (p.Ser1632Arg) variant has been reported in the published literature in individual with a personal and/or family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 31853058 (2020)). One multifactorial likelihood study characterizes the variant as suggestive of pathogenicity (PMID: 31131967 (2019)), while another study reports the variant is located in a region of BRCA2 that is tolerant to missense sequence changes (PMID: 31911673 (2020)). This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). 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. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: The BRCA2 c.4894A>C (p.Ser1632Arg) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide, resulting in a missense substitution. 3/4 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant (SNPs&GO not captured due to low reliability index). This variant is absent from 0/119524 control chromosomes (ExAC). Multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as uncertain significance. The variant of interest has not, to our knowledge, been reported in affected individuals via publications nor has it been 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. -

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 1632 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Ser1632Arg). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRCA2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 51734). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) 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. -
