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

Specifications for BRCA2 are available in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry and recommended for reference when assigning criteria.

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 16 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.03461051 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 3.2, offset of 21, new splice context is: ttgGTaaaa. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
• PS3: PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV000217311: RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in substantial, but incomplete splice defects as ascertained by multiple quantitative analyses (Ambry internal data; Gelli E et al. Cancers (Basel), 2019 Mar;11; Nix P et al. Fam Cancer, 2021 Jan;).; SCV005625318: A functional study demonstrated that this variant caused a partial damaging effect on splicing. PMID: 30832263 (2019); SCV001592840: Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site alters mRNA splicing and is expected to lead to the loss of protein expression (PMID: 28339459).
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 13-32363534-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr13-32363534-G-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 38154.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
