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]

not provided Benign:3
Likely benign, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The BRCA2 p.Thr1915Thr variant was identified by Caux-Moncoutier (2011) in at least one individual with breast or ovarian cancer, and was also identified twice in UMD as an unclassified variant. The variant is not expected to have clinical significance because it does not result in a change of amino acid and is not located in a known consensus splice site. The variant was listed in dbSNP (ID: rs1799953) with a minor allele frequency of 0.001 (1000 Genomes Project), increasing the likelihood that this may be a low frequency benign variant in certain populations. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as predicted benign. -

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpApr 16, 2019Variant summary: BRCA2 c.5745G>A alters a non-conserved nucleotide resulting in a synonymous change. 5/5 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.4e-05 in 250576 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.5745G>A has been reported in the literature in affected individual(s) (Caux-Moncoutier_BRCA2_HM_2011). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer. The variant has also been reported in the FLOSSIES database in a woman older than age 70 years who has never had cancer, providing supporting evidence for a benign role. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Three ClinVar submissions from clinical diagnostic laboratories and an expert panel (ENIGMA) (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
