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]

This alteration is classified as 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. -

The p.Thr77Thr variant has been identified in 22 out of 1134 proband chromosomes (frequency 0.019) in individuals with breast and ovarian cancer phenotype, and was not identified in 300 control chromosomes (Cherbal 2010, Hadjisawas 2004, Hadjisawas 2003, Fackenthal 2011, Baumbach-abstract). However, it is listed in dbSNP database (ID#: rs114446594) with an average heterozygosity of 0.005+/-0.051, therefore increasing the likelihood of this variant to be benign. This variant is not expected to have clinical significance because it does not alter an amino acid residue, and is not located near a splice junction. In the UMD database, this variant has been identified in 3 (out of 10) individuals with breast or ovarian cancers, where a second pathogenic BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation was also detected, suggesting that this is a benign variant. In a recent study, partial exon 3 skipping was suggested to be associated with this variant, however this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity (Thery 2011). In summary, based on above information we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant, therefore this variant is classified as Benign. -
