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]

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpAug 21, 2017Variant summary: The BRCA2 c.627C>A (p.Leu209Leu) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide, resulting in a synonymous change. One in silico tool (Mutationtaster) predicts a damaging outcome for this variant, while 5/5 splice prediction tools via Alamut predict no significant impact on splice donor and acceptor sites, which was confirmed by an in vitro (minigene) study (Giacomo_2013). The authors noted that the variant was obtained by PCR amplification from patients genomic DNA, however, no clinical information about the patients, or information about co-segregation and co-occurrence was provided, so from this occurrence we can infer no evidence for pathogenicity. ESE finder predicts that this variant may affect multiple ESE sites; however, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. This variant was found in 4/121164 control chromosomes, exclusively occurring in the Non-Finnish subcohort of the ExAC project (in 4/66622 control chromosomes) at an allele frequency of 0.006% which does not exceed the maximal expected allele frequency of a disease causing BRCA2 allele (0.075%). Additionally, 2 co-occurrences with possibly pathogenic BRCA2 variants listed in the UMD database (c.9609C>G (p.Tyr3203X) and c.4398_4402delACATT (p.Leu1466PhefsX2)) further support the variant to be benign. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as benign/likely benign. Taken together, this variant is classified as likely benign. -
