Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points: 0P and 5B. BP4_StrongBP6
The NM_000059.4(BRCA2):c.4376A>G(p.Asn1459Ser) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000075 in 1,600,436 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 14/20 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. N1459Y) has been classified as Likely benign.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Benign:3
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. -

Observed in individuals with breast or ovarian cancer (Suter 2004, Chao 2016, Zhong 2016, Lai 2017, Li 2017, Chen 2020); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Also known as 4604A>G; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 14973102, 28664449, 31131967, 27257965, 28222693, 27907908, 27157322, 31867841, 30702160, 31825140, 32467295, 29884841, 32377563) -

Variant summary: BRCA2 c.4376A>G (p.Asn1459Ser) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the BRCA2 repeat region (IPR002093), located between repeat 3 and 4 of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.1e-05 in 245108 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00055 within the East Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database. This frequency is somewhat lower than the estimated maximum expected for a pathogenic variant in BRCA2 causing Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (0.00075), allowing no clear conclusions about variant significance. The variant, c.4376A>G, has been reported in the literature in individuals of East Asian origin affected with breast- or ovarian cancer (Lai_2017, Bhaskaran_2019), but was also found in several unaffected East Asian controls (Lai_2017, Momozawa_2018, Dong_2021). In a recent large study evaluating breast cancer cases and controls in the Breast Cancer Association Consortium (BCAC), the variant was reported in 7/60466 cases, but was also found in 9/53461 controls (Dorling_2021, reported through LOVD). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. However, a large scale study utilizing multifactorial probability model for quantitative analysis of BRCA1 and BRCA2 variants predicted this variant to be likely benign (Parsons_2019). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 31131967, 28222693, 30287823, 30702160, 32467295, 33471991). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37898). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
