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 variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease.

Variant summary: BRCA2 c.6362A>G (p.Glu2121Gly) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.9e-06 in 1607146 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.6362A>G has been reported in the literature in individuals undergoing genetic testing for BRCA1/2, without strong evidence for causality and in at least one case it was reported as likely benign due to lack of segregation, however no further details were provided for this family (e.g. Sinilnikova_2006, Coulet_2010, Maxwell_2016). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 20858050, 27153395, 16528604). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 52074). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity.

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The BRCA2 c.6362A>G (p.Glu2121Gly) variant has been reported in the published literature in a family at high risk for breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 27153395 (2016)). It was detected in the somatic state in a sarcoma/stromal tumor sample (PMID: 34820595 (2021)). This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant.

Malignant tumor of breast Uncertain:1
Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.Glu2121Gly variant was not identified in the literature. The variant was identified in HGMD, and in UMD (1X as an unclassified variant). This residue is not conserved in mammals or lower organisms, increasing the likelihood this variant does not have clinical significance. In addition, computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein; this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance.
