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]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Tyr600*) in the BRCA2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BRCA2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 23320992, 26250392). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 51199). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

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

The p.Tyr600X variant in BRCA2 has been reported in at least 3 individuals with BRCA2-associated cancers (Breast Cancer Information Core (BIC) database) and was absent from large population studies. This nonsense variant leads to a prematur e termination codon at position 600, which is predicted to lead to a truncated o r absent protein. Heterozygous loss of function of the BRCA2 gene is an establis hed disease mechanism in hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC). In additio n, this variant was classified as Pathogenic on September 8, 2016 by the ClinGen -approved ENIGMA expert panel (ClinVar SCV000300463.2). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for HBOC in an autosomal dominant manner based upon the predicted impact to the protein. -

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

The p.Y600* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1800T>G), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a T to G substitution at nucleotide position 1800. This changes the amino acid from a tyrosine to a stop codon within coding exon 9. This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been observed in individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 23320992, 26250392, 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_004275). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BRCA2 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
