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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 13-32339420-GC-AAA is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr13-32339420-GC-AAA is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 51761.Status of the report is reviewed_by_expert_panel, 3 stars.

Pathogenic, no assertion criteria provided	clinical testing	Breast Cancer Information Core (BIC) (BRCA2)	May 29, 2002	- -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	Mar 08, 2022	This variant deletes 2 nucleotides and inserts 3 nucleotides in exon 11 of the BRCA2 gene, creating a frameshift and a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has not been identified 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 submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Mar 21, 2018	The c.5065_5066delGCinsAAA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from the deletion of two nucleotides and insertion of 3 nucleotides causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.A1689Kfs*6). This pathogenic mutation has been reported in one HBOC family (Lubinski J et al. Fam. Cancer. 2004;3:1-10). Of note, this mutation is also referred to as 5293delGCinsAAA in some 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. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Nov 17, 2021	This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ala1689Serfs*6) 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 not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with personal and/or family history of BRCA2-related cancers (PMID: 15131399). This variant is also known as 5293delGCinsAAA . For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

This combined deletion and insertion is denoted BRCA2 c.5065_5066delGCinsAAA at the cDNA level and p.Ala1689LysfsX6 (A1689KfsX6) at the protein level. The surrounding sequence is TGAA[delGC][insAAA]AAAAAAAT. The variant causes a frameshift which changes an Alanine to a Lysine at codon 1689, and creates a premature stop codon at position 6 of the new reading frame. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Also published as BRCA2 5293delGCinsAAA using alternate nomenclature, this variant has been reported in at least one family with breast and/or ovarian cancer (Lubinski 2004). We consider BRCA2 c.5065_5066delGCinsAAA to be pathogenic. -
