Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. Variant got -13 ACMG points: 0P and 13B. BP5_StrongBS1BP7_StrongBP4

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.7521A>G variant in BRCA2 is a synonymous variant (p.Pro2507=). The highest non-cancer, non-founder population filter allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1 (exomes only, non-cancer subset, read depth ≥20) or gnomAD v3.1 (non-cancer subset, read depth ≥20) is 0.0003057 in the East Asian population, which is above the ENIGMA BRCA1/2 VCEP threshold (>0.0001) for BS1, and below the BA1 threshold (>0.001) (BS1 met). This BRCA2 synonymous (silent) variant is within a key functional domain, and SpliceAI predictor score of 0.01 suggests that the variant has no impact on splicing (score threshold <0.10) (BP4 met). This is a synonymous (silent) variant, and mRNA experimental analysis indicates no impact on splicing (PMID:24489791), considered strong evidence against pathogenicity (BP7_Strong (RNA)). Multifactorial likelihood ratio analysis using clinically calibrated data produced a combined LR for this variant of 0.01 (based on Cosegregation LR=0.01), within the thresholds for Strong benign evidence (LR ≥0.00285 & <0.05) (BP5_Strong met; PMID:24489791).In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as a Benign variant for BRCA2-related cancer predisposition based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied as specified by the ENIGMA BRCA1/2 VCEP (BS1, BP4, BP7_Strong (RNA), BP5_Strong).

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]

not specified Benign:3
Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMar 18, 2015This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -

not provided Benign:2
Likely benign, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The p.Pro2507Pro variant is not expected to have clinical significance because it does not alter an amino acid residue, and is not located near a splice junction. This variant was not identified in the literature. It was identified only once in the UMD databases and not in other BRCA2 locus specific databases. Based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time, although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as predicted Benign. -

The highest non-cancer, non-founder population filter allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1 (exomes only, non-cancer subset, read depth >=20) or gnomAD v3.1 (non-cancer subset, read depth >=20) is 0.0003057 in the East Asian population, which is above the ENIGMA BRCA1/2 VCEP threshold (>0.0001) for BS1, and below the BA1 threshold (>0.001) (BS1 met). This BRCA2 synonymous (silent) variant is within a key functional domain, and SpliceAI predictor score of 0.01 suggests that the variant has no impact on splicing (score threshold <0.10) (BP4 met). This is a synonymous (silent) variant, and mRNA experimental analysis indicates no impact on splicing (PMID: 24489791), considered strong evidence against pathogenicity (BP7_Strong (RNA)). Multifactorial likelihood ratio analysis using clinically calibrated data produced a combined LR for this variant of 0.01 (based on Cosegregation LR=0.01), within the thresholds for Strong benign evidence (LR >=0.00285 & <0.05) (BP5_Strong met; PMID: 24489791).
