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]

The p.Lys3408X variant was not identified in the literature but was identified in the BIC database (1X with no clinical importance), dbSNP (ID: rs80358402), and in the ClinVar database (classified as likely benign by GeneDx and Ambry Genetics; classified as benign by BIC; classification not provided by Invitae). The variant was listed in the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC) database in 1 of 65858 chromosomes (frequency: 0.00002) from a population of European (Non-Finnish) individuals; however, this single observation and low frequency is not substantive enough to determine the prevalence of the variant in the general population and its relationship to disease. The variant results in termination of translation at amino acid position 3408 and the loss of the terminal 9 amino acids of the expressed BRCA2 protein. Borg (2010) identified three variants in the BRCA2 gene near the 3â€šÃ„Ã´-end which were predicted to result in protein truncation (c.9976A>T (BIC: K3326X), c.10095delCins11 (BIC: 10323delCins11), c.10150C>T (BIC: R3384X), but were â€šÃ„Ãºruled as exceptions that could not be classified because of their location near the 3â€šÃ„Ã´-end and possibly dispensable part of the geneâ€šÃ„Ã¹. The p.Lys3408X variant is located even farther downstream than these variants (i.e. closer to the 3â€šÃ„Ã´- end of the gene). Stop codon or nonsense mutations in the last exon of a gene may not be subjected to nonsense mediated RNA decay, although further study would be required to validate this hypothesis and it is currently not possible to determine whether or not this might influence the severity of the disorder. Segregation and/or functional studies are recommended to further elucidate the pathogenicity of this variant. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

Variant summary: BRCA2 c.10222A>T (p.Lys3408X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein but not expected to undergo nonsense mediated decay. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.7e-05 in 1613940 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in BRCA2 causing Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (1.7e-05 vs 0.00075), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.10222A>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer Syndrome without strong evidence for or against pathogenicity (example: Pirim_2020, Darst_2021, Bisgin_2022). 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: 32599251, 32853339, 35753294). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 51056). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
