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, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoMay 04, 2023The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.0000085 (2/235338 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in an unaffected individual (PMID: 30630528 (2018)) as well as in an individual with a BRCA1/BRCA2 related disorder (PMID: 31853058 (2020)). Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded conflicting predictions that this variant is benign or damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMay 28, 2016This variant is denoted BRCA2 c.6415_6416delGAinsAT at the cDNA level, p.Glu2139Ile (E2139I) at the protein level. The normal sequence, with the bases that are deleted in braces and inserted in brackets, is TGTT[GA][AT]AGGT. This in frame deletion and insertion, also denoted BRCA2 6643_6644delGAinsAT using alternate nomenclature, occurs on the same allele (in cis) and results in the missense change of a Glutamic Acid to an Isoleucine (GAA>ATA). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. Neither BRCA2 c.6415_6416delGAinsAT nor BRCA2 Glu2139Ile (by this or an alternate nucleotide change) was observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, suggesting it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Since Glutamic Acid and Isoleucine differ in polarity, charge, size or other properties, this is considered a non-conservative amino acid substitution. BRCA2 Glu2139Ile occurs at a position that is not conserved and is not located in a functional domain. In silico analyses are inconsistent regarding the effect this variant may have on protein structure and function. Based on currently available information, we consider BRCA2 Glu2139Ile to be a variant of uncertain significance. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submittercurationUniversity of Washington Department of Laboratory Medicine, University of WashingtonMar 23, 2023Missense variant in a coldspot region where missense variants are very unlikely to be pathogenic (PMID:31911673). -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJun 09, 2023The c.6415_6416delGAinsAT variant (also known as p.E2139I), located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from an in-frame deletion of GA and insertion of AT at nucleotide positions 6415 to 6416. This results in the substitution of the glutamic acid residue for an isoleucine residue at codon 2139, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be neutral by in silico analysis (Choi Y et al. PLoS ONE. 2012; 7(10):e46688). Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpApr 30, 2021Variant summary: BRCA2 c.6415_6416delinsAT (p.Glu2139Ile) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Two of four in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.5e-06 in 235338 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.6415_6416delinsAT in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
BRCA2-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesMar 02, 2023The BRCA2 c.6415_6416delinsAT variant is predicted to result in an in-frame deletion and insertion. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature or in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 24, 2024This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 2139 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Glu2139Ile). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRCA2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 421336). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. 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. -
