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]

This variant deletes 2 nucleotides in exon 11 of the BRCA2 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant is also known as 6828delTT based on Breast Cancer Information Core (BIC) nomenclature. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 19491284, 22798144, 24010542, 29884136; Color internal data). This variant has been identified in 1/245136 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BRCA2 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

The c.6600_6601delTT pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of two nucleotides at nucleotide positions 6600 to 6601, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.S2201*). This mutation has been reported in multiple hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) patients (Haffty BG et al, 2009 Oct;20:1653-9; Kim H et al. Breast Cancer Res Treat, 2012 Aug;134:1315-26; Konstantopoulou I et al. Clin Genet, 2014 Jan;85:36-42; Park JS et al. Cancer Res Treat, 2017 Oct;49:1012-1021; Rebbeck TR et al. Hum Mutat, 2018 05;39:593-620). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 6828delTT in the published literature. In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser2201*) in the BRCA2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BRCA2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). This variant is present in population databases (rs80359607, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with early onset breast cancer (PMID: 19491284). This variant is also known as 6828delTT. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 52131). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: BRCA2 c.6600_6601delTT (p.Ser2201X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.1e-06 in 245882 control chromosomes. c.6600_6601delTT has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer (Haffty_2009, Kim_2012, Konstantopoulou_2014, Ahmadloo_2017, Pajares_2018, Lin_2019). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Seven clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

The BRCA2 c.6600_6601delTT variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Ser2201*). This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with breast cancer (see for example, Table 3, Haffty et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19491284; Table S1, Park et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28111427; Table 2, Konstantopoulou et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 24010542). This variant is reported in 0.0030% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD. This variant has been classified as pathogenic by an expert panel in the ClinVar database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/52131/). Nonsense variants in BRCA2 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
