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]

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:4

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Jan 19, 2017	Variant summary: The BRCA2 c.1205delG (p.Gly402Valfs) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent BRCA2 protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (e.g c.1257delT, p.Cys419fs). One in silico tool predicts a damaging outcome for this variant. This variant is absent in 120776 control chromosomes. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Sep 23, 2023	This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 16234499, 25428789, 26250392). This variant is also known as 1433delG. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37730). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant is present in population databases (rs397507265, gnomAD 0.01%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gly402Valfs*2) in the BRCA2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BRCA2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine	Jul 13, 2018	The p.Gly402ValfsX2 variant in BRCA2 has been reported in at least 3 African Ame rican individuals with a personal or family history of breast and/or ovarian can cer (Nanda 2005, Lynce 2015, Churpek 2015). This variant has been identified in 1/8734 African chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gn omad.broadinstitute.org). This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein?s amino acid sequence beginning at position 402 and leads to a premature termination codon 2 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Heterozygous loss of functi on of the BRCA2 gene is an established disease mechanism in hereditary breast an d ovarian cancer (HBOC). In addition, this variant was classified as Pathogenic on Sept 8, 2016 by the ClinGen-approved ENIGMA expert panel (ClinVar SCV00030040 6.2). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for HBOC in an autosomal dominant manner based upon the presence in probands and th e predicted impact on the protein.

The BRCA2 c.1205delG variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Gly402Valfs*2). This variant (also known as c.1433delG) has been reported in individuals with a personal or family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (see for example, Nanda et al. 2005. PubMed ID: 16234499; Lynce et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26250392; Churpek et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25428789; eMERGE Consortium. 2019. PubMed ID: 31447099. Table S10). This variant was also identified in 1/10030 patients referred for cancer panel testing (Susswein et al. PubMed ID: 26681312. Table S1). This variant is reported in 0.011% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD and is interpreted as pathogenic by the vast majority of submitters in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/37730/). Frameshift variants in BRCA2 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -

The c.1205delG pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 1205, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.G402Vfs*2). This mutation has been reported in high-risk African-American breast cancer patients (Nanda R et al. JAMA. 2005; 294:1925-33; Churpek JE et al. Breast Cancer Res Treat. 2015 Jan;149(1):31-9). This alteration was identified in 1/10030 consecutive patients referred for evaluation by an NGS hereditary cancer panel (Susswein LR et al. Genet. Med., 2016 08;18:823-32). Of note, this mutation is also designated as 1433delG in published literature. In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
