Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PP4_Strong PVS1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.7977-1G>C variant is an intronic variant within the native acceptor 1,2 splice site occurring in intron 17 of the BRCA2 gene. This variant is present in gnomAD v2.1 (exomes only, non-cancer subset) or gnomAD v3.1 (non-cancer subset) but is below the ENIGMA BRCA1/2 VCEP threshold >0.00002 for BS1_Supporting (PM2_Supporting, BS1, and BA1 are not met). This variant is reported to result in aberrant mRNA splicing. RT-PCR and Mini-gene assays demonstrated that the variant impacts splicing by skipping of exon 18 (PMIDs: 16211554, 28339459). Appropriate code strength determined by comparison of results to PVS1 decision tree (PVS1 (RNA) met). Multifactorial likelihood ratio analysis using clinically calibrated data produced a combined LR for this variant of 1921581780 (based on Cosegregation LR=1984740; Pathology LR=10.2; Family History LR=94.9), above the threshold for Very strong evidence towards pathogenicity (LR >350) (PP4_Very strong met; PMID:31131967, 31853058).In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as a Pathogenic variant for BRCA2-related cancer predisposition based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied as specified by the ENIGMA BRCA1/2 VCEP (PVS1 (RNA), PP4_Very strong).

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]
