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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoMar 30, 2021This nonsense variant causes the premature termination of BRCA2 protein synthesis. In the published literature, it has been reported in individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMIDs: 24578176 (2014) and 27157322 (2016)), as well as individuals affected with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma (ERMS) (PMIDs: 32255556 (2020) and 33372952 (2020)). This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations. Internal laboratory data indicates that this variant was detected in an individual with a phenotype consistent with disease. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthJan 04, 2022This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 14 of the BRCA2 gene, creating a 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 two individuals affected with breast cancer and in suspected hereditary breast and ovarian cancer families (PMID: 24578176, 26187060, 26221963, 27157322, 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_003628) and an individual affected with pediatric rhabdomyosarcoma (PMID: 33372952). 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 submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsOct 05, 2022The p.S2378* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.7133C>G), located in coding exon 13 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 7133. This changes the amino acid from a serine to a stop codon within coding exon 13. This mutation was identified in a total of 7 Asian families with HBOC (Rebbeck TR et al. Hum. Mutat., 2018 May;39:593-620). 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. -
Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 03, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser2378*) 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 breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 21520333, 27157322). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 38085). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The variant is absent from the large control population datasets of ExAC and gnomAD (0/121342 and 0/245968 chrs tested, respectively). The variant has been reported in several affected individuals with personal and/or family history of cancer. In addition, multiple reputable databases/clinical laboratories cite the variant as Pathogenic. Taking together, the variant of interest was classified as Pathogenic. -
