Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 22 ACMG points: 22P and 0B. PVS1 PS3 PM2 PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000059.4(BRCA2):​c.396T>A​(p.Cys132*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000138 in 1,450,394 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV005624415: Functional studies demonstrated that this variant was damaging to protein function (PMIDs: 32393813 (2020) and 32398771 (2020)).". Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. C132C) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

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

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 22 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PS3: PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV005624415: Functional studies demonstrated that this variant was damaging to protein function (PMIDs: 32393813 (2020) and 32398771 (2020)).
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 13-32325155-T-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr13-32325155-T-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 37869.Status of the report is reviewed_by_expert_panel, 3 stars.
