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]

Variant summary: The BRCA2 c.9085G>A (p.Ala3029Thr) variant involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide and results in a replacement of a small size and hydrophobic Alanine (A) with a medium size and polar Threonine (T). 5/5 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this substitution. This variant was found in 6/117622 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.000051, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic BRCA2 variant (0.0007503). This variant has been reported in multiple breast and/or ovarian patients; however, without strong evidence for causality. BIC has reported co-occurrence of this variant with pathogenic BRCA1 variants c.5263_5264insC and c.66_67delAG, one in each of the three samples and UMD also reported the variant to co-occur with a BRCA2 splice-site variant c.7436-2A>G, one internally tested individual had a co-occurrence with BRCA1 c.5266dupC. These co-occurrence data strongly suggest the variant to be benign. In support a benign outcome, a likelihood ratio in favor of protein loss of function was calculated to be neutral (Karchin_2008). In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as benign/likely benign, including two laboratories have classified this variant as benign and likely benign, respectively, since last internal update. Taken together, this variant is classified as benign. -

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

This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

The BRCA2 p.Ala3029Thr variant was identified in 5 of 5332 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.0009) from individuals or families with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma orbreast or ovarian cancer (Lee 2008, Laitman 2011, Wong-Brown 2015, Silva 2014, Chandrasekharappa 2017). The variant was identified in dbSNP (rs56179254) as “with other allele”, ClinVar (classified as benign by Invitae, Ambry Genetics, Integrated Genetics and 2 other submitters; as likely benign by Color, GeneDx, and two other submitters; and as uncertain significance by BIC and A.C.Camargo Cancer Center), LOVD 3.0 (observed 1x) and UMD-LSDB (observed 3x). The variant was identified in control databases in 18 of 249,750 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00007 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: Ashkenazi Jewish in 17 of 10,048 chromosomes (freq: 0.002, increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant ) and European in 1 of 112,594 chromosomes (freq: 0.000009), while itwas not observed in the African, Latino, East Asian, Finnish, Other or South Asian populations. The variant was reported in UMD-LSDB as co-occurring with a pathogenic BRCA2 variant (c.7436-2A>G) and in BIC as co-occurring with pathogenic BRCA1 variants (p.Gln1756Profs*74 and p.Glu23Valfs*17). The p.Ala3029Thr residue is not conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein; this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign. -
