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 Benign. Variant got -11 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.8).
• BP6: Variant 13-32398254-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr13-32398254-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_benign]. Clinvar id is 491388.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=0.283 with no splicing effect.

Significance: Likely benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely 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. -

PM2_Supporting, BP1_Strong c.9741G>A, located in exon 27 of the BRCA2 gene, is predicted to result in no splicing alteration (according to SpliceAI) and no amino acid change, p.(Gln3247=). It is not present in the population database gnomAD v2.1.1, non-cancer dataset (PM2_supporting). The SpliceAI algorithm predicts no significant impact on splicing (BP1_strong). To our knowledge, neither relevant clinical data nor well-established functional studies have been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in the ClinVar database (1x benign, 3x likely benign) and in LOVD (1x likely benign), and it has not been classified in the BRCA Exchange database. Based on currently available information, the variant c.9741G>A should be considered a likely benign variant, according to ClinGen ENIGMA BRCA1 and BRCA2 Expert Panel Specifications to the ACMG/AMP Variant Interpretation Guidelines for BRCA2 Version 1.0.0. -
