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]

ACMG classification

Specifications for BRCA2 are available in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry and recommended for reference when assigning criteria.

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 15 ACMG points.

• PS3: PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV000592200: Functional analysis of the variant was performed by lymphocyte RT-PCR and hybrid minigene assays in study by Acedo (2012); the result of the c.8487+3A>G variant was found to be exon 19 skipping.; SCV000668580: RNA analyses have found that this alteration causes aberrant splicing leading to skipping of coding exon 18 (Ambry internal data; Acedo A et al. Breast Cancer Res. 2012 May 25;14(3):R87).; SCV001133937: A splicing functional assay, however, showed that this variant results in exon 19 skipping and a significant reduction of the canonical transcript. PMID: 22632462 (2012); SCV005361042: RT-PCR studies suggest this variant impacts mRNA splicing and results in in-frame skipping of exon 19 (Acedo et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22632462).
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: Splicing predictors support a deleterious effect. Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
• PP5: Variant 13-32370560-A-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr13-32370560-A-G is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 52603.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
