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]

Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria provided	clinical testing	BRCAlab, Lund University	Mar 02, 2020	- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	KCCC/NGS Laboratory, Kuwait Cancer Control Center	Jun 06, 2023	A variant of uncertain significance was detected in this sample. This sequence change replaces valine at codon 2818 is by phenylalanine, an amino acid with highly similar properties., which located in coding exon 19 of the BRCA2 gene (NM_000059.3), results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 8452. This amino acid position is not highly conserved. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD ) nor in our local databases . This variant reported in ClinVar database (ID: 481607) .Also it was previously reported in one Saudi Arabian individual with breast cancer (PMID: 30199306). This alteration is predicted to be possibly damaging and deleterious by (PolyPhen , EIGEN PC, FATHMM , LRT,Mutation taster , DANN, M-CAP, MVP , Align GVGD, REVEL and SIFT). In summary, Due to these contrasting evidences and the lack of functional studies, the clinical significance of the p.Val2818Phe change remains unknown at this time. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health	Aug 15, 2023	This missense variant replaces valine with phenylalanine at codon 2818 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with breast cancer (PMID: 30199306). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Uncertain:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Jan 12, 2024	Variant summary: BRCA2 c.8452G>T (p.Val2818Phe) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the OB2 domain (IPR048262) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 251400 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.8452G>T has been reported in the literature in individuals from Saudi Arabia, including at least one individual affected with breast cancer (e.g., Abulkhair_2018), as well as a homozygous individual for whom clinical details were not provided, although the individual was reported to have a sibling with leukemia and suspected Fanconi anemia (e.g., AlAbdi_2021, Monies_2023). These reports 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: 30199306, 34316023, 37344829). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 481607). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Genetic Services Laboratory, University of Chicago	Jun 11, 2020	DNA sequence analysis of the BRCA2 gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.8452G>T, in exon 19 that results in an amino acid change, p.Val2818Phe. This sequence change has not been described in population databases (gnomAD, ExAC). The p.Val2818Phe change has been reported in one Saudi Arabian individual with breast cancer (PMID: 30199306). The p.Val2818Phe change affects a highly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the BRCA2 protein that is known to be functional. In-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL) provide contradictory results for the p.Val2818Phe substitution. Due to these contrasting evidences and the lack of functional studies, the clinical significance of the p.Val2818Phe change remains unknown at this time. -

The p.V2818F variant (also known as c.8452G>T), located in coding exon 18 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 8452. The valine at codon 2818 is replaced by phenylalanine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been reported in a breast cancer patient (Abulkhair O et al. J Glob Oncol, 2018 Aug;4:1-9). This alteration has also been reported in the homozygous state in an individual with anemia, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, and was called a variant of uncertain significance by study authors (AlAbdi L et al. Nat Commun, 2023 Aug;14:5269). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

This sequence change replaces valine with phenylalanine at codon 2818 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Val2818Phe). The valine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between valine and phenylalanine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 30199306). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 481607). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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. -
