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]

Collection Method: clinical testing;provider interpretation

This variant was identified in a 3 year old male with autism spectrum disorder, global developmental delay, hypotonia, and plagiocephaly, as a secondary finding. It was inherited from a healthy father who's family history includes several females with breast cancer. This variant has been reported in the literature and in ClinVar as a pathogenic variant, due to association with hereditary breast/ovarian cancer. The variant alters a canonical splice site. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

A known pathogenic mutation was detected in the BRCA2 gene (c.67+2T>C). This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 2 of the BRCA2 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and likely results in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD). This variant has been reported in an individual and a family affected with breast/ovarian cancer (PMID: 12955716, 22798144). This variant is also known as IVS2+2T>C and 295+2T>C in the literature. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 52163). Experimental studies have shown that this intronic change disrupts splicing and results in an mRNA product with exon 2 skipped (PMID: 22505045). Exon 2 contains the translational start site of BRCA2. Loss-of-function variants in BRCA2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). Therefore, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant was confirmed by Sanger sequencing . -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: BRCA2 c.67+2T>C is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Four predict the variant abolishes a canonical 5' splicing donor site. At least one publication reports experimental evidence that this variant affects mRNA splicing (Houdayer_2012). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 250582 control chromosomes. c.67+2T>C has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer (example, Diez_2003, AlHannan_2019, Rebbeck_2018). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories and one consortium (CIMBA) have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 2 of the BRCA2 gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs81002885, gnomAD 0.0009%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer and/or breast cancer (PMID: 12955716, 21063910, 22798144). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as IVS2+2T>C and 295+2T>C. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 52163). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site alters mRNA splicing and is expected to lead to the loss of protein expression (PMID: 17011978, 22505045, 30883759). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.67+2T>C variant in BRCA2 has been reported in at least 7 individuals affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer (selected references, Diez 2003 PMID: 12955716, Al Hannan 2019 PMID: 31131559, Rebbeck 2018 PMID: 29446198, Pajares 2018 PMID: 29884136). It has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID 52163) but was absent from large population studies. This variant occurs within the canonical splice site (+/- 1,2) and is predicted to cause altered splicing leading to an abnormal or absent protein. In vitro functional studies provide some evidence that this variant affects mRNA splicing (Houdayer 2012 PMID: 22505045, Fraile-Bethencourt 2019 PMID: 30883759). Loss of function of the BRCA2 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal dominant hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome.
