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 testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoMay 10, 2022The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000087 (3/34536 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in an individual with breast cancer (PMID: 26543556 (2015)) and in an individual with young-onset colorectal cancer (PMID: 33359728 (2022)). Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxFeb 23, 2016This variant is denoted BRCA2 c.5341G>A at the cDNA level, p.Asp1781Asn (D1781N) at the protein level, and results in the change of an Aspartic Acid to an Asparagine (GAT>AAT). Using alternate nomenclature, this variant would be defined as BRCA2 5569G>A. This variant has been observed in at least one individual with breast cancer (Dean 2015). BRCA2 Asp1781Asn was not observed at a significant allele frequency in 1000 Genomes. Since Aspartic Acid and Asparagine differ in some properties, this is considered a semi-conservative amino acid substitution. BRCA2 Asp1781Asn occurs at a position that is not conserved and is located in the POLH binding domain (Buisson 2014). In silico analyses predict that this variant is unlikely to alter protein structure or function. Based on currently available information, it is unclear whether BRCA2 Asp1781Asn is pathogenic or benign. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpAug 03, 2017Variant summary: The BRCA2 c.5341G>A (p.Asp1781Asn) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide and 3/4 in silico tools (SNPsandGO not captured due to low reliability index) predict a benign outcome. However, these predictions have yet to be functionally assessed. This variant was found in 2/120702 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000166, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic BRCA2 variant (0.0007503). A publication cites the variant in an affected individual with limited information (ie, lack of co-occurrence and cosegregation data)(Dean_BRCA_GigaScience_2015). In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories classified this variant as uncertain significance. Therefore, due to the limited available information (ie, lack of clinical and/or functional studies), the variant of interest has been classified as a "Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS). -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1Benign:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthOct 18, 2023This missense variant replaces aspartic acid with asparagine at codon 1781 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). A functional study in mouse embryonic stem cells reported that this variant did not impact cell survival or sensitivity to DNA-damaging agents (PMID: 33293522). This variant has been reported in an individual affected with breast cancer (PMID: 26543556) and in an individual affected with colorectal cancer (PMID: 33359728). This variant has been identified in 3/250662 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. -

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 21, 2024This 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. -

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJul 31, 2023This variant is present in population databases (rs183478654, gnomAD 0.009%). This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1781 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Asp1781Asn). 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. 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. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 142848). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 26543556). -
