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 Uncertain_significance. Variant got 0 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.13413131).

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This missense variant replaces cysteine with serine at codon 1591 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with BRCA2-related disorders in the literature. This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.C1591S variant (also known as c.4771T>A), located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a T to A substitution at nucleotide position 4771. The cysteine at codon 1591 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. 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 of this alteration remains unclear. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant is denoted BRCA2 c.4771T>A at the cDNA level, p.Cys1591Ser (C1591S) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Cysteine to a Serine (TGT>AGT). Using alternate nomenclature, this variant would be defined as BRCA2 4999T>A. This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. BRCA2 Cys1591Ser was not observed at a significant allele frequency in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project. Since Cysteine and Serine differ in polarity, charge, size or other properties, this is considered a non-conservative amino acid substitution. BRCA2 Cys1591Ser occurs at a position that is not conserved and is located within the RAD51 and POLH interaction region and within the region required for stimulation of POLH DNA polymerization activity (Bignell 1997, UniProt). In silico analyses predict that this variant is unlikely to alter protein structure or function. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether BRCA2 Cys1591Ser is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

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. 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. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 234427). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRCA2-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1591 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Cys1591Ser). -
