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]

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

The p.K789R variant (also known as c.2366A>G), located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 2366. The lysine at codon 789 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is conserved on species alignment; however, one species (rock hyrax) has arginine as the reference amino acid at this position. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The BRCA2 p.Lys789Arg variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in the following databases: COGR, Cosmic, MutDB, LOVD 3.0, UMD-LSDB, BIC Database, ARUP Laboratories, or the Zhejiang University Database. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs587782062) as "With Uncertain significance allele", ClinVar (1x uncertain significance), and the Clinvitae database. The variant was identified in control databases in 1 of 245756 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.000004 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). It was observed in the European population in 1 of 111352 chromosomes (freq: 0.000009), but not in the African, Other, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, Finnish, or South Asian populations. The p.Lys789 residue is conserved in mammals but not in more distantly related organisms. However four out of five computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein; this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and 2 of 5 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing; this is not very predictive of pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Uncertain:1

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 789 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Lys789Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs587782062, gnomAD 0.0009%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRCA2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 141857). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
