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]

A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. The evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was sufficient to determine this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign. -

Benign, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The c.978C>A, p.Ser326Arg variant has been previously identified in our laboratory in 4 patients with breast cancer as well as pancreatic cancer. It has also been reported in the literature in 11 of 11054 proband chromosomes in individuals with breast, ovarian and prostate cancer patients. The variant was not observed in any of the 206 control chromosomes tested (Edwards_2003, Spearman_2008, Caux-Moncoutier_2010, Sinilnikova_1999, Kote-Jarai_2011, Lee_2008, Martin_2001, Sinclair_2000, Shih_2000, Schroeder_2010, Schroeder, Rajasekaran_2008). These authors suggest that the variant be classified either as a variant of unknown significance or as a benign variant. It is listed in dbSNP database as coming from a "clinical source" (ID#:rs28897706) and in the exome variant server database with a global minor allele frequency (MAF) of 0.001 (1000 Genomes), increasing the likelihood that this is a low frequency benign variant. In addition, in two studies, the variant did not segregate with the disease (Shih_2000_11106241, Sinclair_2000_10728701). This residue is not conserved in mammals and the variant amino acid Arginine (Arg) is present in chicken and computational analyses (PolyPhen, SIFT, AlignGVGD) do not predict any effect on the protein function increasing the likelihood this variant does not have functional significance. The variant is observed in the UMD database in 5 of 30 individuals who had a second pathogenic mutation identified, again increasing the likelihood this variant is benign. The variant was also identified in In summary, based on the above information, this variant is classified as benign. -
