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 testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesAug 28, 2021The BRCA2 c.8867A>C; p.Glu2956Ala variant (rs151174152), to our knowledge, is not reported in individuals in the medical literature but is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 38189). This variant is found on only three chromosomes (3/282024 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The glutamate at codon 2956 is highly conserved, but computational analyses are uncertain whether this variant is neutral or deleterious (REVEL: 0.215). Given the lack of clinical and functional data, the significance of the p.Glu2956Ala variant is uncertain at this time. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoNov 01, 2022The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000011 (3/282024 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. In a large-scale breast cancer association study, the variant was observed in individuals with breast cancer as well as in an unaffected study control individual (PMID: 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/genes/BRCA2)). 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 deleterious or benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJul 12, 2024Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis indicates that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Observed in individuals with breast cancer as well as in unaffected controls (PMID: 33471991); Also known as 9095A>C; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 28508593, 29179779, 29884841, 32377563, 33471991, 12228710) -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthNov 30, 2023This missense variant replaces glutamic acid with alanine at codon 2956 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. In a large breast cancer case-control study conducted by the BRIDGES consortium, this variant was reported in 2/60466 cases and 1/53461 controls, showing inconclusive association with disease (OR=1.768, 95%CI 0.16 to 19.50; p-value=1) (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_007504). This variant has been identified in 3/282024 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. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsSep 18, 2018This 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. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpSep 24, 2018Variant summary: BRCA2 c.8867A>C (p.Glu2956Ala) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 7.2e-06 in 276410 control chromosomes (gnomAD). 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.8867A>C in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Two ClinVar submissions from clinical diagnostic laboratories (evaluation after 2014) cites 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 SciencesSep 28, 2022The BRCA2 c.8867A>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Glu2956Ala. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.0040% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/13-32953566-A-C), and in the ClinVar database with conflicting interpretations of likely benign and uncertain (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/38189/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
