Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1Benign:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health | Jun 23, 2023 | This missense variant replaces asparagine with serine at codon 588 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may impact RNA splicing. RNA studies have show that this variant results an in-frame deletion of the last 147 nucleotides from exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene (PMID: 20215541, 21735045). However, the impact on RNA splicing may be partial and the clinical relevance of this observation is not known. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 15937982, 16758124, 20215541, 21735045, 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_000486). This variant has also been identified in 4/249674 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. - |
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Dec 31, 2018 | This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. - |
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter | curation | University of Washington Department of Laboratory Medicine, University of Washington | Mar 23, 2023 | Missense variant in a coldspot region where missense variants are very unlikely to be pathogenic (PMID:31911673). - |

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health | Oct 02, 2023 | This missense variant replaces asparagine with serine at codon 588 of the BRCA2 protein.

not specified Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp | Apr 15, 2019 | Variant summary: BRCA2 c.1763A>G (p.Asn588Ser) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Four predict the variant creates a cryptic 5 donor site. These predictions have been confirmed by functional studies which show the variant creates a new cryptic donor site, which leads to an alternative transcript consisting of an in-frame deletion of 147 nucleotides (r.1763_1909del) that, in turn, produces an in-frame deletion of 49 amino acids with the insertion of a serine. However, due to the in-frame nature of this alternate splicing, it was considered a VUS (Menendez_2012, Sanz_2010). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.6e-05 in 249674 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.1763A>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer (Rebbeck_2018, Menendez_2012, Sanz_2010, Velasco_2005). One published study reports lack of co-segregation of the variant with the disease (affected mother did not carry the variant; Menendez_2012). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer. A co-occurrence with a pathogenic variant has been reported following internal testing (LabCorp; BRCA2 c.658_659delGT, p.Val220fsX4), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. Four ClinVar submissions from clinical diagnostic laboratories (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as uncertain significance (2x), likely benign (1x) and once as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign. - |

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano | May 08, 2023 | The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000087 (3/34322 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in individuals and families with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMIDs: 29446198 (2018), 21735045 (2012), and 20215541 (2010)), as well as in a breast cancer case in a large scale breast cancer association study (PMID: 33471991 (2021)). The variant was reported to not segregate with disease in a family with early onset breast cancer (PMID: 21735045 (2012)). An in vitro functional study indicated that the variant led to an in-frame deletion of 49 amino acids that are not in a known functional domain of the BRCA2 protein (PMID: 20215541 (2010)). Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded conflicting predictions that this variant is deleterious or benign. Additional analysis using software algorithms for the prediction of the effect of nucleotide changes on BRCA2 mRNA splicing yielded predictions that this variant may result in the gain of a cryptic splice site without affecting the natural splice sites . Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. - |

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Invitae | Jun 04, 2023 | ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 51186). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Studies have shown that this missense change is associated with altered splicing resulting in unknown protein product impact (PMID: 20215541, 21735045; Invitae). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA2 protein function. This variant is also known as 1991A>G. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 20215541, 21735045). This variant is present in population databases (rs373400041, gnomAD 0.009%). This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 588 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Asn588Ser). - |
