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]

The frameshift deletion p.Y1716Kfs*8 in BRCA2 (NM_000059.4) has been previously reported in individuals affected with Breast and Ovarian cancer and is reported as a founder variant in Spanish populations (Infante et al, 2010; Llort et al, 2002; Jiménez et al, 2013). This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation caused a frameshift mutation. The frame shifted sequence continues 8 residues until a stop codon is reached. The p.Y1716Kfs*8 variant is a loss of function variant in the gene BRCA2, which is intolerant of Loss of Function variants. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The c.5146_5149delTATG (p.Y1716Kfs*8) alteration, located in exon 11 (coding exon 10) of the BRCA2 gene, consists of a deletion of 4 nucleotides from position 5146 to 5149, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon after 8 amino acids. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Based on data from gnomAD, the c.5146_5149delTATG allele has an overall frequency of <0.001% (1/226616) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 0.004% (1/28320) of Latino alleles. This mutation has been observed in multiple breast and/or ovarian cancer families in the literature (Llort, 2002; de Juan Jim&eacute;nez, 2013). Haplotype analysis performed on 13 families with this mutation suggests that it originated in Spain from a common ancestor (Infante, 2010), and one study identified this alteration in 2/312 Spanish male breast cancer patients (de Juan, 2015). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 5373delGTAT, 5374del4, and 5146_5149del4 in published literature. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -

PVS1_PM5_PTC_Strong c.5146_5149del, located in exon 11 of the BRCA2 gene, consists in the deletion of 2 nucleotides causing a premature protein truncation and nonsense-mediated mRNA decay; p.(Tyr1716Lysfs*8)(PVS1, PM5_PTC_Strong).This variant is found in 1/212150 in the gnomAD v2.1.1 database, exome non-cancer data set. This variant has been reported in the ClinVar database (13x pathogenic) and LOVD (6x pathogenic, 1x uncertain significance, 1x not classified) and classified as a pathogenic variant in BRCA Exchange database (“Variant allele predicted to encode a truncated non-functional protein”). Based on currently available information, the variant c.5146_5149del is classified as a pathogenic variant according to ClinGen-BRCA1 and BRCA2 Guidelines version 1.0.0. -

Variant summary: BRCA2 c.5146_5149delTATG (p.Tyr1716LysfsX8) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the 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. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.4e-06 in 226616 control chromosomes. c.5146_5149delTATG has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Seven clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Tyr1716Lysfs*8) 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). This variant is present in population databases (rs763933639, gnomAD 0.004%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with male breast cancer and/or breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 11857748, 16261400, 19912264, 20859677, 23199084, 23479189, 26026974). It is commonly reported in individuals of Spanish ancestry (PMID: 19912264, 23199084). This variant is also known as 5374delTATG, 5373delGTAT, c.5374_5377delTATG, c.5373_5376delGTAT. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 51779). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The BRCA2 p.Tyr1716LysfsX8 variant was not identified in the literature. The p.Tyr1716LysfsX8 variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs763933639), Clinvitae database (as pathogenic by Invitae), ARUP Laboratories BRCA Mutations Database (as definitely pathogenic), the ClinVar database (as pathogenic by GeneDX, Ambry Genetics). The c.5146_5149delTATG variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein's amino acid sequence beginning at codon 1716 and leads to a premature stop codon 8 codons downstream. This alteration is then predicted to result in a truncated or absent protein and loss of function. Loss of function variants of the BRCA2 gene are an established mechanism of disease in hereditary breast and ovarian cancer and is the type of variant expected to cause the disorder. In summary, based on the above information, this variant meets our laboratory’s criteria to be classified as pathogenic. -
