Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1 PM2 PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000059.4(BRCA2):​c.6839_6840insA​(p.Glu2282ArgfsTer11) variant causes a frameshift, splice region change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. 1/1 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 13-32341194-T-TA is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr13-32341194-T-TA is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 495100.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

This sequence change inserts one nucleotide in exon 11 of BRCA2 mRNA (c.6839_6840insA), causing a frameshift at codon 2282 and the creation of a premature translation stop signal 11 amino acid residues later. This is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Truncating variants in BRCA2 are known to be pathogenic. To our knowledge this variant has not been reported in the international literature but based on its effect on the protein it is suspected to be pathogenic. -
