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]

Significance: Likely benign
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: The c.67+16A>G variant affects a non-conserved intronic nucleotide. Mutation taster predicts benign outcome for this variant. 5/5 programs in Alamut predict that this variant does not affect normal splicing. This variant is found in 18/105310 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0001709, predominantly found in South Asian subpopulation with observed MAF of 0.00125, which exceeds the maximal expected frequency of a pathogenic allele (0.0007503), suggesting this variant is likely a benign polymorphism primarily found in the South Asian population. The variant of interest has not, to our knowledge, been reported in affected individuals via publications; nor evaluated for functional impact by in vivo/vitro studies. One clinical lab via ClinVar classified this variant as "benign", without evidence to independently evaluate. Considering all, the variant was classified as likely benign until additional information becomes available. -
