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]

Submissions by phenotype

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submittercurationUniversity of Washington Department of Laboratory Medicine, University of WashingtonMar 23, 2023Missense variant in a coldspot region where missense variants are very unlikely to be pathogenic (PMID:31911673). -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsNov 09, 2022The p.R2272K variant (also known as c.6815G>A), located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 6815. The arginine at codon 2272 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpDec 01, 2022Variant summary: BRCA2 c.6815G>A (p.Arg2272Lys) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of four in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 250316 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.6815G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome, without strong evidence for causality (Azribi_2021). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 18, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 2272 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Arg2272Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs199522406, gnomAD 0.007%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRCA2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 569078). 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 with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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. -
