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 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.024276104 fraction of the gene. No cryptic splice site detected. Exon removal is inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 13-32319326-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr13-32319326-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 37822.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr13-32319326-G-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant causes a G to A nucleotide substitution at the +1 position of intron 3 splice donor site of the BRCA2 gene. Splice site prediction tools predict that this variant may have a significant impact on RNA splicing. Although functional studies have not been reported this variant, it is expected to impair RNA splicing and protein function. This variant has been reported in one individual each affected with breast cancer (PMID: 32091409) and pancreatic cancer (PMID: 32980694). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Multiple different variants affecting the same splice donor site have been shown to cause in-frame skipping of exon 3 and confer high risk of breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 29707112). Loss of BRCA2 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 3 of the BRCA2 gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and likely results in a shortened protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 29707112, 32091409). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37822). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in skipping of exon 3, but is expected to preserve the integrity of the reading-frame (PMID: 32641407; Invitae). This variant disrupts a region of the BRCA2 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Trp31Cys) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 16793542, 20215541, 22194698, 22678057, 24285729). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
