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]

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

The p.K426T variant (also known as c.1277A>C), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA2 gene, results from an A to C substitution at nucleotide position 1277. The lysine at codon 426 is replaced by threonine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

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

This missense variant replaces lysine with threonine at codon 426 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 1 individual affected with early-onset breast cancer (PMID: 28947987). This variant has been identified in 1/243758 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. -

BP1_Strong c.1277A>C, located in exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, is predicted to result in the substitution of lysine by threonine at codon 426, p.(Lys426Thr). This position is outside a (potentially) clinically important functional domain and, moreover, the SpliceAI algorithm predicts no significant impact on splicing (BP1_strong). This variant is found in 1/260642 alleles at a frequency of 0.0004% in the gnomAD v2.1.1 database, non-cancer dataset. To our knowledge, no well-established functional studies have been reported for this variant. It has been reported in patients with BRCA-related conditions (PMID: 28947987, 31853058 and data from our internal cohort of patients). This variant has been reported in the ClinVar database (5x uncertain significance, 1x benign), in the LOVD database (2x uncertain significance) and in BRCA Exchange database (where it has not been reviewed yet). Based on currently available information, the variant c.1277A>C should be considered a likely benign variant. -

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

Variant summary: The BRCA2 c.1277A>C (p.Lys426Thr) variant involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. 4/5 in silico tools predict damaging outcome for this variant. This variant is absent in 120474 control chromosomes from ExAC. This variant has been found in one breast cancer patient who had positive family history (Solano_2016), however without strong evidence for or against pathogenicity. There are no functional studies published for this variant. Taken together, this variant is classified as Variant of Unknown Significance. -

This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 426 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Lys426Thr). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of BRCA2-related conditions (PMID: 21520333). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 479333). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA2 protein function. 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. -
