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]

The BRCA2 p.Thr2542Thr variant was identified in 4 of 4500 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.001) from individuals with breast and ovarian cancer (Borg 2010, Morgan 2010, Salazar 2006); however, control chromosomes were not evaluated in these studies, thus the prevalence of this variant in the general population could not be determined. Myriad classified the variant as a polymorphism (personal communication).The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs61754138) “With Likely Benign allele”, with a minor allele frequency of 0.0042(21 of 5000 chromosomes in 1000 Genomes Project). In NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (Exome Variant Server), the variant was found in 27 of 4406 African American chromosomes and was not found in European American chromosomes, increasing the likelihood that this may be a low frequency benign variant in certain populations of origin. This variant was identified in the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC) database, released Oct 20th, 2014) in 88 of 120570 chromosomes (frequency: 0.0007299) (or 76 of 10004 African individuals, 8 of 11522 of Latino, 4 of 66482of European (Finnish) chromosomes). The p.Thr2542Thr variant was identified in the ClinVar database (classified as a benign variant by ENIGMA, by Invitae, by GeneDx, Emory Genetics and as a likely benign by Counsyl and Ambry Genetics; as uncertain significance by BIC. In Clinvitae the variant was also identified by EmyClass as benign. BRCA share UMD database identified the variant as likely neutral 16X and co-occurred with BRCA2 pathogenic variants (c.8414_8416delinsC and c.IVS15-2A>T (c.7618-2A>T)) and BRCA1 pathogenic variants (c.211A>G (p.Arg71Gly) and c.IVS16+6T>C (c.4986+6T>C)), increasing the likelihood that the p.Thr2542Thr variant does not have clinical significance. The variant was identified in BIC database 2X with no clinical importance. The p.Thr2542Thr variant is not expected to have clinical significance because it does not result in a change of amino acid and is not located in a known consensus splice site. In addition, in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information, this variant meets our laboratory's criteria to be classified as benign. -
