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 testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthAug 08, 2023This missense variant replaces glutamic acid with lysine at codon 534 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 has shown this variant does not impact cell viability or sensitivity to DNA-damaging agents (PMID: 33314489). This variant has been reported in at least two individuals affected with breast cancer and two unaffected individuals (PMID: 18627636, 33314489, 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_007646). This variant has been identified in 4/248706 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. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJun 30, 2021The p.E534K variant (also known as c.1600G>A), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1600. The glutamic acid at codon 534 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration was observed in a series of 187 Malaysian women with breast cancer who were diagnosed under age 40 or had strong family history of breast or ovarian cancer (Thirthagiri E etal. Breast Cancer Res. 2008;10:R5 9). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

not provided Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJan 24, 2018This variant is denoted BRCA2 c.1600G>A at the cDNA level, p.Glu534Lys (E534K) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Glutamic Acid to a Lysine (GAA>AAA). This variant, previously published as 1828G>A using alternate nomenclature, has been reported in at least one individual with breast cancer (Thirthagiri 2008). BRCA2 Glu534Lys was not observed at a significant allele frequency in large population cohorts (Lek 2016). This variant is not located in a known functional domain. In-silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports that this variant does not alter protein structure/function. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether BRCA2 Glu534Lys is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoDec 12, 2022The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00022 (4/18270 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in individuals with breast cancer as well as in a healthy control (PMIDs: 33314489 (2021), 18627636 (2008)). A functional study showed an ability of the variant to rescue Brca2-null mouse embryonic stem cells (mESC) and no sensitivity to DNA damaging agents (PMID: 33314489 (2021)). 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. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJun 22, 2023Variant summary: BRCA2 c.1600G>A (p.Glu534Lys) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.7e-05 in 271478 control chromosomes (gnomAD, Dong_2021). This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in BRCA2 causing Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (3.7e-05 vs 0.00075), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1600G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected withbreast cancer without any evidence for causality (Thirthagiri_2008, Dorling_2021, Sullivan_2021), therefore, these reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. One publication using Brca2 deficient mouse embryonic stem cells showed no damaging effects of this variant: the variant could rescue cell viability and was not sensative to DNA damaging agents (Sullivan_2021). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 32467295, 33314489, 18627636, 33471991). Seven ClinVar submitters have assessed this variant since 2014: six classified the variant as uncertain significance and one as likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
