Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 1 ACMG points: 2P and 1B. PM2 BP4

The NM_000059.4(BRCA2):​c.8699A>G​(p.Asp2900Gly) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000137 in 1,461,870 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. D2900V) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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 Uncertain_significance. Variant got 1 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.38364226).

The p.D2900G variant (also known as c.8699A>G), located in coding exon 20 of the BRCA2 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 8699. The aspartic acid at codon 2900 is replaced by glycine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration was detected in 1/830 Japanese patients who underwent genetic testing of the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes (Arai M et al. J. Hum. Genet., 2018 Apr;63:447-457) as well as in a cohort of 320 Japanese individuals with a personal and/or family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (Nakamura S et al. Breast Cancer, 2015 Sep;22:462-8). This alteration was also detected on a 25-gene panel test in a woman who was diagnosed with breast cancer before age 50 (Tung N et al. Cancer, 2015 Jan;121:25-33). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA2 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 822666). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with a personal and/or family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 24249303). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 2900 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Asp2900Gly). -
