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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsOct 30, 2024The c.5560_5561delGT pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of two nucleotides at nucleotide positions 5560 to 5561, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.V1854Ffs*3). This alteration has been reported in individuals diagnosed with breast, male breast and ovarian cancers (Beristain, E et al. Breast Cancer Res Treat. 2007 Dec;106(2):255-62; Hirasawa A et al. Oncotarget, 2017 Dec;8:112258-112267; Pajares B et al. BMC Cancer, 2018 Jun;18:647; Strojnik K et al. Breast Cancer Res Treat, 2021 Aug;188:811-820). This alteration was also observed with an allele frequency of 0.00014 in 7,051 unselected female breast cancer patients and was not observed in 11,241 female controls of Japanese ancestry (Momozawa Y et al. Nat Commun, 2018 10;9:4083). Additionally, this alteration was identified in a large, worldwide study of BRCA1/2 mutation positive families (Rebbeck TR et al. Hum Mutat, 2018 05;39:593-620). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Of note, this alteration is also designated as c.5788_5789delGT and c.5558_5559delGT 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. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthFeb 24, 2022This variant deletes 2 nucleotides in exon 11 of the BRCA2 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in 2 individuals affected with breast cancer and 1 individual affected with ovarian cancer (PMID: 29348823, 30287823, 33037428). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BRCA2 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

Familial cancer of breast Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxNov 14, 2013This variant is denoted BRCA2 c.5560_5561delGT at the cDNA level and p.Val1854PhefsX3 (V1854FfsX3) at the protein level. The surrounding sequence is TTGT[delGT]TTCA. The deletion causes a frameshift, changing a Valine to a Phenylalanine at codon 1854, and creating a premature stop codon at position 3 of the new reading frame. This mutation is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. BRCA2 c.5560_5561delGT, also known as c.5788_5789delGT, has been reported in association with familial breast and/or ovarian cancer (Beristain 2007) and is indicative of Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer (HBOC) syndrome, an autosomal dominant condition that predisposes to breast and ovarian cancer as well as other cancers. The predominant BRCA2-related cancer risks for women who have not been diagnosed with cancer have been estimated as 41% - 84% lifetime risk for breast cancer and 11% - 27% lifetime risk for ovarian cancer (Ford 1998, Risch 2006). BRCA2 mutations have also been reported in women with fallopian tube carcinoma, primary peritoneal carcinoma, and uterine serous carcinoma (Levine 2003, Biron-Shental 2006). Women with BRCA1/2 mutations also have an increased risk for contralateral breast cancer. Women with BRCA mutations whose first cancer was diagnosed under age 40 have a 21-31% risk to develop a second breast cancer within 10 years and a 63% risk to develop a second breast cancer within 25 years. Women with BRCA mutations whose first cancer was diagnosed between ages 40 and 50 have an 11-13% risk to develop a second breast cancer within 10 years and a 44-49% risk within 25 years. Women with BRCA mutations whose first cancer was diagnosed after age 50 have an 8% risk to develop a second breast cancer within 10 years and a 20% risk within 25 years (Graeser 2009). Other cancer risks associated with a BRCA2 mutation include up to a 7% risk for pancreatic cancer (Ozcelik 1997, The Breast Cancer Linkage Consortium 1999), up to a 34% risk for prostate cancer in male carriers (Thompson 2001), and up to a 7% risk for male breast cancer (Liede 2004). The variant is found in BRCA1-BRCA2 panel(s). -
