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]

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:3
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineJun 19, 2020The p.Ser599X variant (also reported as c.2022del5, c.2024_2028delCTTAT, and c.2024del5) in BRCA2 has been reported in the literature in >15 individuals with BRCA2-related cancers and segregated with disease in at least three relatives (Gayther 1997, Håkansson 1997, Loman 2001, Ladopoulou 2002, Armakolas 2002, Bonadona 2005, Tommasi 2008, Kim 2012, Castéra 2014, Torres-Mejía 2015, Azzollini 2016, Barnes-Kedar 2018, Fostira 2018, Palmero 2018,Singh 2018,Bhaskaran 2019). This vairant has been identified in 1/111114 European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 599, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the BRCA2 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal dominant hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome (HBOC). Additionally, this variant was classified as pathogenic on April 22, 2016 by the ClinGen-approved ENIGMA expert panel (ClinVar SCV000282361.1). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant HBOC. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1; PM2; PS4, PP1. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpSep 19, 2022Variant summary: BRCA2 c.1796_1800delCTTAT (p.Ser599X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.1e-06 in 244054 control chromosomes. c.1796_1800delCTTAT has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (e.g. Kim_2012, Lang_2017, Palmer_2020). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. 13 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 pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 12, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser599*) in the BRCA2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BRCA2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). This variant is present in population databases (rs276174813, gnomAD 0.0009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 8988179, 22009639, 22085629, 22798144, 24549055). This variant is also known as c.1796delCTTAT and 2024del5. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37756). RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this premature translational stop signal on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (Invitae). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthMar 09, 2022This variant deletes 5 nucleotides in exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in at least 15 individuals affected with breast, ovarian and/or endometrial cancer (PMID: 9150154, 11754111, 12142080, 15887246, 18694767, 18752448, 22009639, 25371446, 29084914, 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_001800, 33629534, 34657357, 34645131). This variant has been identified in 1/244054 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BRCA2 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsOct 22, 2021The c.1796_1800delCTTAT pathogenic mutation (also known as p.S599*), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of five nucleotides at positions 1796 to 1800. This changes the amino acid from a serine to a stop codon within coding exon 9. This mutation has been detected in female breast cancer, male breast cancer, and ovarian cancer cases (Gayther SA et al. Nat. Genet. 1997 Jan;15:103-5; Loman N et al. J. Natl. Cancer Inst. 2001 Aug;93:1215-23; Ladopoulou A et al. Cancer Lett. 2002 Nov;185:61-70; Kim H et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2012 Aug;134:1315-26; Torres-Mejia G et al. Cancer Epidemiol.

Of note, this alteration is also designated as 2024del5 in published literature. In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

Malignant tumor of breast Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The p.Ser599X variant was identified in 2 of 816 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.002) from individuals or families with breast and ovarian cancer (Gayther 1997, Bayraktar 2012). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs276174813) “With pathogenic allele”, HGMD, the ClinVar database (classified as a pathogenic variant by the BIC and Invitae), GeneInsight VariantWire database (1X, classified as “pathogenic” by a clinical laboratory), the BIC database (12X with clinical importance) and UMD (15X as a causal variant). The p.Ser599X variant leads to a premature stop codon at position 599, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein and loss of function. Loss of function variants of the BRCA2 gene are an established mechanism of disease in hereditary breast and ovarian cancer and is the type of variant expected to cause the disorder. In summary, based on the above information, this variant meets our laboratory’s criteria to be classified as pathogenic. -
