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]

Breast-ovarian cancer, familial, susceptibility to, 2 Pathogenic:8
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingSt. Jude Molecular Pathology, St. Jude Children's Research HospitalMay 16, 2022The BRCA2 c.4965C>G (p.Tyr1655Ter) change is a nonsense variant that is predicted to cause premature protein truncation and loss of normal protein function (PVS1). This variant has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.0016% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (PM2_supporting; https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). This variant has been reported in individuals with a personal and/or family history of breast cancer, ovarian cancer, and prostate cancer (PS4; PMID: 17688236, 22009639, 25186627, 26681312, 29446198, 32338768, 32427313, 32853339). A different variant resulting in premature truncation at residue 1655 have also been reported in individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PS1; PMID: 21120943, 25136594, 29446198). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic based on the ACMG/AMP criteria: PVS1, PS1, PS4, PM2_supporting. -

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:5
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 18, 2016Variant summary: The BRCA2 c.4965C>G (p.Tyr1655X) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent BRCA2 protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (e.g. p.Arg3128X, p.Glu3111X). Mutation taster predicts a damaging outcome for this variant. This variant was found in 1/121918 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000082, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic BRCA2 variant (0.0007503). It was observed in several breast and/or ovarian cancer patients indicating pathogenicity. It has also been reported 21 times in BIC which supports the fact that this variant is a recurrent mutation. Additionally, a functional study demonstrated the variant to impair homology directed repair activity of BRCA2 which is a known to be important for BRCA2s role in tumor suppression. Furthermore, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as Pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineApr 24, 2019The p.Tyr1655X variant in BRCA2 has been reported in at least 8 individuals with BRCA2-associated cancers (Ramus 2007, Bayraktar 2012, Castro 2013, Chong 2014, Tung 2015, Susswein 2016). This variant has also been identified in 2/125700 European chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (GnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org); however, this frequency is low enough to be consistent with the frequency of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) in the general population. This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 1655, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Heterozygous loss of BRCA2 function is an established disease mechanism in hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC). 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 and low frequency in controls.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 21, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Tyr1655*) 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 present in population databases (rs80358721, gnomAD 0.002%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast, ovarian and prostate cancer (PMID: 17688236, 20858050, 21709188, 23569316, 24728189, 26681312). This variant is also known as 5685C>G and 5193C>G. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37936). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesMar 10, 2022The BRCA2 c.4965C>G; p.Tyr1655Ter variant (rs80358721), also known as c.5685C>G or 5193C>G, is reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with breast and ovarian cancer (Pruss 2014, Ramus 2007, Rebbeck 2018, Susswein 2016, Tung 2015). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 37936), and is only observed on three alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant induces an early termination codon and is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Pruss D et al.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:3
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsApr 20, 2022The p.Y1655* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.4965C>G), located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 4965. This changes the amino acid from a tyrosine to a stop codon within coding exon 10. This mutation has been identified in breast, ovarian, and prostate cancer patients (Ramus SJ et al. Hum. Mutat. 2007 Dec;28:1207-15; Bayraktar S et al. Cancer. 2012 Mar;118:1515-22; Castro E et al. J. Clin. Oncol. 2013 May;31:1748-57; Song H et al. Hum. Mol. Genet. 2014 Sep;23:4703-9; Susswein LR et al. Genet. Med. 2016 08;18:823-32). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, 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. -
