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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.

The c.1156del variant in the BRCA2 gene is located on the exon 10 and is predicted to cause shift of reading frame which introduces a premature translation termination codon (p.Glu386Lysfs*13), resulting in an absent or disrupted protein product. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in literature. Other protein truncating variants located in the same exon (p.Lys385*, p.Ser418*) have been reported as pathogenic by the expert panel (ClinVar ID: 51073, 37732). Loss-of-function variants in the BRCA2 gene are known to cause hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 8988179, 11897832, 29446198). This variant has been reported in ClinVar as pathogenic by the expert panel (ID: 37726). The variant is absent in the general population database (gnomAD). Therefore, the c.1156del (p.Glu386Lysfs*13) variant in the BRCA2 gene has been classified as pathogenic. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Loss-of-function variants in BRCA2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with BRCA2-related disease. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37726). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu386Lysfs*13) in the BRCA2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. -
