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 alteration is classified as 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. -

The p.Gln1396Arg variant is found 5 times in UMD and 38 times in the BIC database. It was identified in the literature 3 of 4261 probands with unilateral and contalateral breast cancer patients, although an inadequate number of control chromosomes were tested to establish the variants frequency in the general population (Capanu 2011, Adem 2003, Borg 2009). It is listed in dbSNP database as coming from a "clinical source" (ID#: rs55969723) with an average heterozygosity of 0.004+/-0.043 in the human population, increasing the likelihood that this is a low frequency benign variant. It was also found in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (Exome Variant Server) with a frequency of 0.002 and was classified as a benign variant by the Sharing Clinical Reports Project (SCRP) (submitted within the ClinVar database and derived from Myriad reports) along with GeneDx and BIC with uncertain significance and ITMI and Invitae who did not provide an assessment. The p.Gln1396 residue is not conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein. In addition, in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) do not predict a difference in splicing. In the UMD database, this variant has been identified in one individual with a second pathogenic variant and a breast or ovarian cancer phenotype, thereby increasing the likelihood that this variant does not have clinical significance. In summary, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time, although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as Benign. -
