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]

Likely benign, no assertion criteria provided	clinical testing	Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System	-	The BRCA2 p.Asn1228Asp variant was identified in a minimum of 1 of 146 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.007) from Italian individuals or families with breast/ovarian cancers (Giannini 2006). Computational methods assessing the pathogenicity of unclassified missense variants includes a posterior probability model/likelihood ratio model found the variant not to be deleterious (Lindor 2012, Easton 2007, Rajasekaran 2008). The variant was also identified in dbSBP (ID: rs28897722) “With other allele”, ClinVar (classified as benign, reviewed by an expert panel (last assessed 2015); submitters: benign by ENIGMA, Invitae, Ambry Genetics, SCRP (Sharing Clinical Reports Project, derived from Myriad reports); likely benign by GeneDx, Counsyl; uncertain significance by BIC and Div of Genomic Diagnostics, Children's Hospital of Philadelphia), Clinvitae (4x), LOVD 3.0 (4x), UMD-LSDB (7x with classification 1-Neutral), BIC Database (7x, unknown clinical importance, classification pending), and ARUP Laboratories (classified 1-not pathogenic or of no clinical significance). The variant was not identified in Genesight-COGR, Cosmic, MutDB, Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database. The variant was identified in control databases in 11 of 275416 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00004 increasing the likelihood that this may be a low frequency benign variant in certain populations of origin (Genome Aggregation Consortium Feb 27, 2017). The p.Asn1228 residue is not conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign. -

Benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Oct 27, 2020	Variant summary: BRCA2 c.3682A>G (p.Asn1228Asp) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the BRCA2 repeat of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-05 in 249496 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in BRCA2 causing Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (4e-05 vs 0.00075), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.3682A>G has been reported in the literature in cohorts of individuals with breast cancer (example, Capalbo_2006, DeBrakeleer_2015, Giannini_2006, Romano_2007, Seymour_2008, Maxwell_2016, Ikeda_2016). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. Multifactorial probability models have reported a neutral outcome for this variant (Lindor_2012). At-least two co-occurrences with another pathogenic variant have been reported in the BIC database (BRCA2 c.6468_6469delTC, p.Ser2156_Gln2157SerIlefs), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function by a high throughput functional screen (Ikegami_2020). These results showed no damaging effect of this variant as measured by tolerance to treatment with PARP inhibitors. Eight clinical diagnostic laboratories and one expert panel (ENIGMA, classification as benign) have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation (benign, n=3, likely benign, n=4, VUS, n=1). Some submitters cite overlapping evidence utilized in the context of this evaluation. Based on the absence of conclusive evidence supporting an actionable outcome as outlined above and to reflect the majority consensus classification in the field, the variant was classified as benign. -
