The p.S1743N variant (also known as c.5228G>A), located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 5228. The serine at codon 1743 is replaced by asparagine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant was identified in 1/157 individuals selected according to NCCN criteria for hereditary breast cancer and tested with a panel of 33 genes related to hereditary cancer (de Souza Timoteo AR et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat., 2018 Dec;172:637-646). This alteration was also detected in a cohort of 1663 Brazilian breast cancer patients who underwent hereditary multigene panel testing (Guindalini RSC et al. Sci Rep, 2022 Mar;12:4190). This amino acid position is poorly conserved in available vertebrate species. 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. -

not specified    Uncertain:1 
Variant summary: BRCA2 c.5228G>A (p.Ser1743Asn) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.8e-05 in 249568 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.5228G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Breast Cancer (example, Guindalini_2022, deSouzaTimoteo_2018), without strong evidence for causality. These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 35264596, 30159786). Nine submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 (VUS=8, Likely benign=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

BRCA2-related disorder    Uncertain:1 
The BRCA2 c.5228G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ser1743Asn. This variant was reported as a variant of uncertain significance in a Brazilian breast cancer cohort study (de Souza Timoteo et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 30159786; Supp. Table 3 Guindalini RSC et al 2022. PubMed ID: 35264596). This variant is reported in 0.020% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/13-32913720-G-A) and is listed in ClinVar as uncertain or likely benign (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/142783/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
not provided    Uncertain:1 
The BRCA2 c.5228G>A (p.Ser1743Asn) variant has been reported in the published literature in multiple affected individuals with breast cancer from Brazil (PMIDs: 30159786 (2018), 35264596 (2022), 35534704 (2022)), and is described to be located in a region of the BRCA2 gene that is tolerant to missense sequence changes (PMID: 31911673 (2020)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.0002 (7/34340 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome    Uncertain:1 
This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1743 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Ser1743Asn). This variant is present in population databases (rs587782714, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with a personal or family history of breast cancer (PMID: 30159786, 35264596, 35534704). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 142783). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) 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. -
