The variant received 2 classification points (ACGS-UK Somatic Oncogenicity v2025). O3_Moderate

The NM_000059.4(BRCA2):c.6100C>A (p.Arg2034Ser) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The gene BRCA2 is a tumor suppressor gene (CancerMine: 139 TSG, 7 oncogene, 19 driver citations). The gene BRCA2 is a cancer driver gene (CancerMine: 139 TSG, 7 oncogene, 19 driver citations). The variant allele was found at a cumulative frequency of 0.00000124 (AC=2) in the gnomAD database across 1,613,582 control chromosomes (no homozygotes observed). The grpmax filtering allele frequency (95% CI) is 0.0000241. Splicing prediction tools (SpliceAI) predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Benign/Likely Benign (no review stars). Other variants at the same amino acid position have been reported in ClinVar (not pathogenic): p.R2034C: Benign (ClinVar VariationId 41558, 3 stars); p.R2034G: Uncertain_significance (ClinVar VariationId 2719621, 1 star); p.R2034H: Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity (ClinVar VariationId 52012); p.R2034L: Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity (ClinVar VariationId 1041798); p.R2034P: Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity (ClinVar VariationId 840304)

Genes affected
BRCA2 (HGNC:1101): (BRCA2 DNA repair associated) The product of this gene in involved in maintenance of genome stability. It is involved in double-strand break repair pathways during mitotic and meiotic homologous recombination and functions in protecting DNA replication forks. The encoded protein contains sites for interactions with PALB2 and EMSY and an N-terminal DNA binding domain. It also contains a RAD51 binding domain with multiple components. It has multiple BRC repeats, an alpha helix domain, oligonucleotide binding folds, and a tower-like domain. It has a nuclear localization signal and a phosphorylation site for cyclin-dependent kinase. The C-terminus of the protein can bind single-stranded and double-stranded DNA. The product of this gene interacts with multiple proteins, including RAD51. It is involved in recruiting RAD51 filaments to DNA double-strand break sites and also in cytoplasmic division. It also acts as a tumor suppressor. Mutations in this gene or decreased expression have been implicated in multiple tumor types, including breast, ovarian, pancreatic, prostate and other cancers.
