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 variant is denoted BRCA2 c.8941G>A at the cDNA level, p.Glu2981Lys (E2981K) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Glutamic Acid to a Lysine (GAA>AAA). Using alternate nomenclature, this variant would be defined as BRCA2 9169G>A. This variant has been observed in individuals diagnosed with early-onset and/or familial breast cancer, ovarian cancer, and early-onset or familial prostate cancer (Hansen 2011, Maier 2014, Caminsky 2016). BRCA2 Glu2981Lys was not observed at a significant allele frequency in large population cohorts (Lek 2016). This variant is located in the DNA Binding Domain (Yang 2002). In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports that this variant does not alter protein structure/function. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether BRCA2 Glu2981Lys is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

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. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces glutamic acid with lysine at codon 2981 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies have shown that this variant does not impact homology-directed DNA repair activity (PMID: 29884841, 35736817). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast or ovarian cancer (PMID: 21318380, 28480178, 35535289), and prostate cancer (PMID: 25111659). One of the individuals affected with ovarian cancer also carried a pathogenic variant in the BRCA1 gene, which could explain the observed phenotype (PMID: 35535289). This variant has been identified in 1/242750 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. -
