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]

Benign, reviewed by expert panelcurationClinGen ENIGMA BRCA1 and BRCA2 Variant Curation Expert Panel, ClinGenOct 10, 2023The c.68-7del variant is an intronic variant occurring in intron 2 of the BRCA2 gene. 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 0.00002293 in the Latino/Admixed American population which is within the ENIGMA BRCA1/2 VCEP threshold (>0.00002 to <= 0.0001) for BS1_Supporting (BS1_Supporting met). This BRCA2 intronic variant is outside of the native donor and acceptor 1,2 splice sites, and SpliceAI predictor score of 0.04 suggests that the variant has no impact on splicing (score threshold <0.10) (BP4 met). This is an intronic variant, and mRNA experimental analysis indicates no impact on splicing (PMIDs: 10534775, 21673748, 22505045), considered strong evidence against pathogenicity (BP7_Strong (RNA)). Reported by one calibrated study to exhibit protein function similar to benign control variants (PMID: 35979650) (BS3 met). Multifactorial likelihood ratio analysis using clinically calibrated data produced a combined LR for this variant of 0.32 (based on Pathology LR=0.32), within the thresholds for Supporting benign evidence (LR 0.23-0.48) (BP5 met; PMID: 35979650). 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_Supporting, BP4, BP7_Strong (RNA), BS3, BP5). -
