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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -1 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.08052626).
• BP6: Variant 13-32336561-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr13-32336561-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 182188.We mark this variant Likely_benign, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_benign=2, Uncertain_significance=3}.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Benign:2

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Feb 04, 2021	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. -

Variant summary: BRCA2 c.2206G>A (p.Ala736Thr) 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 6.8e-07 in 1461764 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.2206G>A in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 182188). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

This variant is denoted BRCA2 c.2206G>A at the cDNA level, p.Ala736Thr (A736T) at the protein level, and results in the change of an Alanine to a Threonine (GCA>ACA). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. BRCA2 Ala736Thr was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Sinc Alanine and Threonine differ in polarity, charge, size or other properties, this is considered a non-conservative amino acid substitution. BRCA2 Ala736Thr occurs at a position that is variable across species and is located within the region of interaction with NPM1 (UniProt). In silico analyses predict that this variant is unlikely to alter protein structure or function. Based on currently available information, it is unclear whether BRCA2 Ala736Thr is pathogenic or benign. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 736 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Ala736Thr). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRCA2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 182188). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
