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]

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

The p.W2830* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.8490G>A), located in coding exon 19 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 8490. This changes the amino acid from a tryptophan to a stop codon within coding exon 19. This variant was reported in individual(s) with features consistent with BRCA2-related hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome (Yassaee VR et al. Asian Pac J Cancer Prev, 2016;17:149-53). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

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

This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp2830*) in the BRCA2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BRCA2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 26026974, 27165220, 29446198). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 155722). -
