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 missense variant replaces glutamic acid with glycine at codon 2981 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in at least 2 families/individuals affected with hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer and has been reported in 1 unaffected individual (PMID 24916970, 33471991, 34072659, 34287479). This variant has been identified in 6/248100 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

The p.E2981G variant (also known as c.8942A>G), located in coding exon 21 of the BRCA2 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 8942. The glutamic acid at codon 2981 is replaced by glycine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration was detected once in a cohort of Portuguese breast and ovarian cancer families, and authors classified it as a variant of unknown significance (Peixoto A, et al. Clin. Genet. 2015; 88(1):41-8). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Variant summary: BRCA2 c.8942A>G (p.Glu2981Gly) 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 2.4e-05 in 248100 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.8942A>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with breast or ovarian cancer and an unaffected control (Peixoto_2014, Solano_2021, Nagy_2021, Dorling_2021). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. Co-occurrence with a pathogenic variant has been reported (BRCA2 c.5909C>A, p.Ser1970X), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. 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: 24916970, 34072659, 34287479, 33471991). Six submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, and classified it as likely benign (n=1) or uncertain significance (n=5). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign. -

This missense variant replaces glutamic acid with glycine at codon 2981 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in at least 2 families/individuals affected with hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer and has been reported in 1 unaffected individual (PMID 24916970, 33471991, 34072659, 34287479). This variant has been identified in 6/248100 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
