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]

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health
Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This missense variant replaces asparagine with serine at codon 1279 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 individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 12552570, 25503501, 37415649) and in an unaffected individual (PMID: 12552570). 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. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.N1279S variant (also known as c.3836A>G), located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 3836. The asparagine at codon 1279 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. In one study, this variant was reported in 1/40 Cypriot families with multiple cases of breast and ovarian cancer and 1/50 unrelated healthy Cypriots with no history of breast or ovarian cancer (Hadjisavvas A et al. Hum. Mutat. 2003 Feb;21(2):171; Hadjisavvas A et al. Cancer Genet. Cytogenet. 2004 Jun;151(2):152-6). This alteration was also previously reported in at least one individual from a cohort of 278 BRCA1/2-negative individuals with early-onset breast cancer via multiplex panel testing of 22 cancer susceptibility genes (Maxwell KN et al. Genet. Med. 2015 Aug;17(8):630-8). This variant was not reported in population based cohorts in the following databases: Database of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (dbSNP), NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), and 1000 Genomes Project. In the ESP, this variant was not observed in 6469 samples (12938 alleles) with coverage at this position. To date, this alteration has been detected with an allele frequency of approximately 0.0003% (greater than 300000 alleles tested) in our clinical cohort. This amino acid position is poorly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Observed in individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancers (Hadjisavvas et al., 2003; Maxwell et al., 2015); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 31911673, 15172753, 29884841, 25503501, 12552570, 31853058, 32377563, 27527004, 35753294) -

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

This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1279 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Asn1279Ser). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer, as well as in unaffected individuals (PMID: 12552570, 25503501, 37415649). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 409423). 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. -
