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]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg2027Lysfs*22) 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 (rs749927339, gnomAD 0.0009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 14574168, 21120943, 24728189). This variant is also known as 6308insA. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 52005). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: BRCA2 c.6079dupA (p.Arg2027LysfsX22) 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. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 250972 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.6079dupA has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And/or Ovarian Cancer (examples: Spearman_2008, Evans_2008, Song_2014, Castera_2014). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 18824701, 17636422, 24728189, 24549055). Eight submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Significance:Pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant inserts 1 nucleotide 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. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast or ovarian cancer (PMID: 17636422, 21120943, 24549055, 24728189, 27153395). This variant has been identified in 1/250972 chromosomes 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. -

The c.6079dupA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a duplication of A at nucleotide position 6079, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.R2027Kfs*22). This alteration has been described in numerous breast and ovarian cancer cohorts (Evans DG et al. Fam. Cancer. 2008 Jul;7(2):113-117; Song H et al. Hum. Mol. Genet. 2014 Sep;23(17):4703-4709; Copson ER et al. Lancet Oncol. 2018 02;19(2):169-180; Rebbeck TR et al. Hum. Mutat. 2018 05;39(5):593-620.). 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. -
