Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -1 ACMG points: 2P and 3B. PM2BP4_ModerateBP6

The NM_000059.4(BRCA2):c.1936A>C(p.Ser646Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000138 in 1,450,740 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 12/18 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as Benignin ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. S646N) has been classified as Likely benign.

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]

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1Benign:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsApr 30, 2014The p.S646R variant (also known as c.1936A>C or 2164A>C), located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from an A to C substitution at nucleotide position 1936. The serine at codon 646 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. A nearby alteration, c.1938C>A, results in the same p.S646R amino acid change and it has been reported as not clinically important by the Austrian Group for Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer in Vienna (Breast Cancer Information Core (BIC) database [available fromhttps://research.nhgri.nih.gov/projects/bic]).This variant was not reported in population based cohorts in the following databases: Database of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (dbSNP), NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), and 1000 Genomes Project.To date, this alteration has been detected with an allele frequency of approximately 0.002% (greater than 42000 alleles tested) in our clinical cohort (includes this individual).This amino acid position is poorly 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 ofp.S646Rremains unclear. -

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeMay 23, 2017In summary, this variant has uncertain impact on BRCA2 function. The available evidence is currently insufficient to determine its role in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a BRCA2-related disease. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 142616). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces serine with arginine at codon 646 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Ser646Arg). The serine residue is weakly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between serine and arginine. -
