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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.016671542 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 6, offset of 20, new splice context is: ggctctgtgtgacactccAGgtg. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 13-32362521-A-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr13-32362521-A-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 267686.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr13-32362521-A-T is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic]. Variant chr13-32362521-A-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

This sequence change occurs 2 nucleotides before exon 17 of the BRCA2 gene. This position is highly conserved in the human and other genomes and is crucial in mRNA processing. This variant is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and likely results in an absent or disrupted protein product. Truncating variants in BRCA2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). Also, donor and acceptor splice site variants as usual lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547). This variant has been described in the international literature in individuals undergoing panel testing for hereditary syndrome (PMID: 31159747). The mutation database ClinVar contains entries for this variant (Variation ID:267686). -
