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]

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces tyrosine with cysteine at codon 2905 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function. Functional studies have shown this variant does not impact cell viability or increase drug sensitivity to cisplatin or PARP inhibitors (PMID: 32444794, 37922907), but does increase sensitivity to CBDCA (PMID: 32444794). This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with BRCA2-related cancer in the literature, but has been reported in an unaffected individual (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_008698). This variant has been identified in 4/251312 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.

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

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.

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

This variant is denoted BRCA2 c.8714A>G at the cDNA level, p.Tyr2905Cys (Y2905C) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Tyrosine to a Cysteine (TAT>TGT). Using alternate nomenclature, this variant would be defined as BRCA2 8942A>G. This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. BRCA2 Tyr2905Cys was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Since Tyrosine and Cysteine differ in polarity, charge, size or other properties, this is considered a non-conservative amino acid substitution. BRCA2 Tyr2905Cys occurs at a position that is conserved across species and is located in the DNA binding domain (Borg 2010). In silico analyses predict that this variant is probably damaging to protein structure and function. Based on currently available information, it is unclear whether BRCA2 Tyr2905Cys is pathogenic or benign. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance.

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

ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 96871). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRCA2-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs431825368, gnomAD 0.01%). This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 2905 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Tyr2905Cys). 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. 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.
