Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Mar 23, 2023 | 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. - |

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | GeneDx | Jul 26, 2023 | In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Identified in individuals with glioblastoma and breast cancer (Lu et al., 2015; Renata Mendes de Freitas et al., 2022); Also known as 3041C>A; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 28873162, 23929434, 26689913, 28122867, de Freitas_2022, 32377563, 31911673, 26295337, 29884841, 31853058) - |
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano | Mar 03, 2023 | The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.0004 (10/24886 chromosomes in the African/African American subpopulation, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is higher than would generally be expected for pathogenic variants in this gene. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast cancer (Freitas et al. 2022. Mastology 32:e20220003), glioblastoma (PMID: 26689913 (2015)), and an advanced cancer (PMID: 28873162 (2017)). 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. - |
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp | May 02, 2024 | Variant summary: BRCA2 c.2813C>A (p.Ala938Glu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.8e-05 in 250824 control chromosomes. Although the observed frequency does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic variant in this gene (0.00075), the variant may represent a rare ethnic-specific functional polymorphism as evidenced by it being found in 3 African American women over 70 years old who have never had cancer (FLOSSIES database). c.2813C>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with cancer, including glioblastoma (example, Lu_2015, Mandelker_2017). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. The variant was reported as functional via a mouse embryonic stem cell (mESC)-based assays (Biwas_2023). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 51353). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. - |
BRCA2-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria provided | clinical testing | PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences | Jun 05, 2024 | The BRCA2 c.2813C>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ala938Glu. This variant has been reported in individuals with breast cancer, an individual with glioblastoma multiforme, and an individual with advanced cancer (Infante et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23929434; Table S13, Lu et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26689913; eTable, Mandelker et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28873162). This variant occurs within a region of the BRCA2 gene that is predicted to be tolerant to variation (Table 2, Dines et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 31911673). This variant is reported in 0.040% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD. It has conflicting interpretations of likely benign and uncertain significance in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/51353/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. - |
