Variant chr13-32370448-G-A details in Genebe, Genetics Data Aggregator

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 pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	May 08, 2023	Variant summary: BRCA2 c.8378G>A (p.Gly2793Glu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the BRCA2 OB1 domain (IPR015187) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 251422 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.8378G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And/or Ovarian Cancer (example: Butz_2021). The variant of interest has been functionally assessed for effect on splicing and showed that it did influence exon 19 splicing (~15%), with the predominant product being the wild type BRCA2 protein (~85%) (Acedo_2012), additionally, the variant of interest was shown to significantly affect homology-directed repair activity (example: Guidugli_2013, Richardson_2021). Other variants affecting the same amino acid residue is classified pathogenic/likely pathogenic in ClinVar (CV ID 52569, 38158). This suggests that this residue may play a critical role in normal protein function. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 22632462, 33672545, 32719484, 23108138, 24323938, 19043619, 33609447). Seven clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as VUS (n=2) and pathogenic/likely pathogenic (n=5). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Jan 19, 2024	This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 2793 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Gly2793Glu). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of BRCA2-related conditions (PMID: 10923033). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 38157). Advanced modeling performed at Invitae incorporating data from internal and/or published experimental studies (PMID: 33609447) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt BRCA2 function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects BRCA2 function (PMID: 23108138, 29394989, 29884841). This variant disrupts the p.Gly2793 amino acid residue in BRCA2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 12442275, 15889636, 16030099, 19043619, 23108138, 23233716, 25085752, 25777348). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	Jan 31, 2023	Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect: significantly reduced homologous recombination DNA-repair activity (Guidugli et al., 2013; Guidugli et al., 2018; Iversen et al., 2022); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Observed in individuals with breast cancer (Lovejoy et al., 2018; Butz et al., 2021); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Also known as 8606G>A; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 23108138, 24323938, 32623769, 25382762, 33609447, 33672545, 32170000, 19043619, 22632462, 12228710, 29884841, 32719484, 35665744, 10923033, 29394989) -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences	Apr 12, 2024	A hybrid minigene functional assay has demonstrated skipping of exon 19 in the BRCA2 gene from this variant (Acedo et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22632462). Another functional study shows that this variant causes reduced protein function compared to wildtype (Guidugli et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 23108138). Alternate missense changes at this amino acid (p.Gly2793Arg, p.Gly2793Val) are classified as pathogenic (Richardson et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 33609447). Although the classifications in ClinVar range from uncertain to pathogenic, the vast majority of recent entries are likely pathogenic or pathogenic (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/38157/). This variant has not been observed in a large population database, indicating this variant is rare. This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano	Feb 21, 2024	The BRCA2 c.8378G>A (p.Gly2793Glu) variant has been reported in the published literature in an elderly individual with male breast cancer (PMID: 33672545 (2021), and in an individual with female breast cancer who carried a second BRCA2 missense variant (Lovejoy et al. Austin J Cancer Clin Res (2018) 5(1):1082). The c.8378G>A (p.Gly2793Glu) variant has been predicted to be likely deleterious based on protein likelihood ratio modeling (PMID: 19043619 (2008)), and experimental studies indicate it has deleterious effects on BRCA2 homology-directed DNA repair activity (PMIDs: 23108138 (2013), 29394989 (2018), 29884841 (2019)). This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic. -

Pathogenic:2

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Oct 06, 2023	The p.G2793E variant (also known as c.8378G>A), located in coding exon 18 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 8378. The glycine at codon 2793 is replaced by glutamic acid, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration was found to produce exon 19 skipping; however, the majority of transcript produced by this alteration is wildtype (Acedo A et al. Breast Cancer Res. 2012 May;14:R87). This amino acid substitution was shown to be defective in a homology directed repair assays (Guidugli L et al. Cancer Res. 2013 Jan;73:265-75; Guidugli L et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 2018 Jan;102:233-248; Hart SN et al. Genet. Med. 2019 01;21:71-80; Richardson ME et al. Am J Hum Genet, 2021 03;108:458-468). Based on internal structural analysis, this alteration is predicted to disrupt binding to DSS1 and is more destabilizing to the local structure than other known pathogenic variants (Ambry internal data). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
