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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxSep 06, 2018This insertion of two nucleotides is denoted BRCA2 c.5241_5242insTA at the cDNA level and p.Ser1748Ter (S1748X) at the protein level. The normal sequence, with the bases that are inserted in brackets, is TAAC[insTA]AGCT. The insertion creates a nonsense variant, which changes a Serine to a premature stop codon. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. BRCA2 c.5241_5242insTA, previously reported as BRCA2 5469_5470insTA or 5469insTA using alternate nomenclature, has been reported in association with breast cancer (Fackenthal 2012). We consider this variant to be pathogenic. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJan 07, 2020The c.5241_5242insTA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from an insertion of two nucleotides at position 5241, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.S1748*). This alteration was reported in a Nigerian individual with breast cancer and was identified in a large, worldwide study of BRCA1/2 mutation positive families (Fackenthal JD et al. Int. J. Cancer 2012 Sep; 131(5):1114-23; Rebbeck TR et al. Hum. Mutat., 2018 05;39:593-620). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 5469insTA in published literature. 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. -
Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpDec 16, 2022This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 22034289). This variant is present in population databases (rs749980674, gnomAD 0.007%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser1748*) 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). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 254555). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
