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]

Ambry Genetics
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.K2707E variant (also known as c.8119A>G), located in coding exon 17 of the BRCA2 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 8119. The lysine at codon 2707 is replaced by glutamic acid, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces lysine with glutamic acid at codon 2707 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with BRCA2-related disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 1/251356 chromosomes 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. -

This missense variant replaces lysine with glutamic acid at codon 2707 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 not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has been identified in 1/251356 chromosomes 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. -

Variant summary: BRCA2 c.8119A>G (p.Lys2707Glu) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the BRCA2, OB1 domain (IPR015187) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251356 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.8119A>G has been reported in the literature in at-least one individual diagnosed with Breast And/or Ovarian Cancer without strong evidence for causality (Walsh_2021). 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 publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 33479248). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 479316). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 2707 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Lys2707Glu). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of BRCA2-related conditions (PMID: 21520333). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 479316). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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. -
