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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesMay 02, 2023The BRCA2 c.5351dup; p.Asn1784LysfsTer3 variant (rs80359507), also known as 5579insA, is reported in the literature in numerous individuals with breast and ovarian cancer and has been described as a founder mutation in the Dutch population (Jakimovska 2018, Verhoog 1999, Verhoog 2001, Walsh 2011). This variant is also reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 37960) and is absent from the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant causes a frameshift by inserting a single nucleotide, so it is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. Based on the available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Jakimovska M et al.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 21, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Asn1784Lysfs*3) 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 and ovarian cancer (PMID: 10550133, 21232165, 22006311, 25863477). This variant is also known as 5579insA and 5579dupA. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37960). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpAug 25, 2020Variant summary: BRCA2 c.5351dupA (p.Asn1784LysfsX3) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the 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. The variant was absent in 250394 control chromosomes. c.5351dupA has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (Neuhausen_1998, vanderHout_2006, Stegel_2011, Solano_2016). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Ten clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthNov 20, 2023This variant inserts 1 nucleotide in exon 11 of the BRCA2 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is also known as 5579insA and 5573insA in the literature. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been observed in multiple individuals and families affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 9585613, 10638982, 11597388, 21232165, 22006311, 25863477, 29084914, 29335924) and is reported as a founder mutation in the Netherlands (PMID: 9585613, 11597388). 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. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 13, 2021The c.5351dupA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a duplication of A at nucleotide position 5351, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.N1784Kfs*3). This mutation has been reported in multiple families with breast and/or ovarian cancer (Verhoog LC et al. J. Clin. Oncol. 1999 Nov;17:3396-402; Peelen T et al. Br. J. Cancer. 2000 Jan;82:151-6; Spitzer E et al. Int. J. Cancer. 2000 Feb;85:474-81; van der Hout AH et al. Hum. Mutat. 2006 Jul;27:654-66; Stegel V et al. BMC Med. Genet. 2011 Jan;12:9; Walsh T et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 2011 Nov;108:18032-7; Kang E et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2015 May;151:157-68; Jakimovska M et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2018 Apr;168:745-753), and has been described as a Dutch founder mutation based on haplotype analysis (Neuhausen SL et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 1998 Jun;62:1381-8; Janaviius R. EPMA J. 2010 Sep;1:397-412). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 5579insA and 5573insA in published literature. 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. -
