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. -

Likely benign, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The BRCA2 p.Gly1529Arg variant was identified in 4 of 6448 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.001) from individuals with breast or ovarian cancer (Borg 2010, Kauff 2008, Sinclair 2002). Two functional studies suggest that the variant affects binding with Rad51 (Chen 1999, Tal 2009), and one in silico study predicts that this variant may be deleterious using hierarchal modeling (Capanu 2011). However, there is conflicting evidence, two additional in silico studies using multifactorial-likelihood ratio models predict the variant to be neutral (Easton 2007, Lindor 2012). The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs28897728) as “With Likely benign allele”, in Clinvitae database (classifications; benign and likely benign), Fanconi Anemia Mutation Database (LOVD), LOVD-IARC database, ARUP Laboratories BRCA Mutations Database (classified as not pathogenic, of no clinical importance), COSMIC (in a medulloblastoma and endometrioid carcinoma), the ClinVar database (classification benign, reviewed by an expert panel, multiple submitters), GeneInsight COGR database (classifications of likely benign, benign, and uncertain significance by 4 clinical laboratories), the BIC database (75x with no clinical importance), and UMD (62x with a “neutral” classification, co-occurring with deleterious BRCA1, c.3226A>T, p.Arg1076X, BRCA2, c.5350_5351delAA, p.Asn1784HisfsX2, and BRCA2, c.8755_10257del, p.Gly2919fsx15 variants, increasing the likelihood that the p.Gly1529Arg variant does not have clinical significance. The variant was also identified in the 1000 Genomes Project in 3 of 5000 chromosomes (frequency: 0.0006), HAPMAP populations -EUR in 2 of 1006 chromosomes (frequency: 0.002) and AMR in 1 of 694 chromosomes (frequency: 0.0014), NHLBI GO Exome Sequencing Project in 6 of 8600 European American alleles (frequency: 0.0007), and the Exome Aggregation Consortium (March 14, 2016) in 51 of 120448 chromosomes (freq. 0.00042) in the following populations: European (Non-Finnish) in 42 of 66226 chromosomes (freq. 0.00063), South Asian in 6 of 16482 chromosomes (freq. 0.00036), Latino in 2 of 11536 chromosomes (freq. 0.00017), and other in 1 of 898 chromosomes (freq. 0.00011) but was not seen in African, East Asian, and Finnish populations. The p.Gly1529 residue is conserved across mammals and lower organisms and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, Mutation Taster) suggest that the p.Gly1529Arg variant may impact the protein however this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and 1 of 5 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing; this is not very predictive of pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign. -

Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpApr 06, 2015Variant summary: The variant of interest causes a missense change in a conserved position with 4/4 in silico programs predicting a "deleterious" outcome (SNPs&Go not captured here due to low reliability index). The variant of interest has an observed allele frequency of 57/121370 (1/2127) in controls, which does not significantly exceed the maximum expect allele frequency for a pathogenic BRCA2 variant, 1/1333. However, the variant of interest has been found in cases to co-occur with multiple potential pathogenic BRCA2 (1 - c.5350_5351delAA (p.Asn1784HisfsX2) and 1 - c.8755_10257del (p.Gly2919fsX15)) and BRCA1 (1 - c.3226A>T (p.Arg1076X)) variants including internal LCA sample that co-occurred with a BRCA1 variant, c.3358_3359delGT (p.Val1120X scored DV). Although, functional studies show no impairment on exon splicing but conflicting evidence for a role in homologous recombination via recruitment of RAD51, however, this functional analysis has not been indepdently reproduced by other laboratories and their relevance to in-vivo mechanisms of pathogenicity have not been unequivocally established. Furthermore, multiple reputable databases (ARUP, UMD, BIC, SCRP, GeneDx and Ambry Genetics) and publications (Easton_2007 and Lindor_2012) classify the variant as likely benign/benign/neutral. . Therefore, taken together, the variant of interest is classified as benign. -
