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]

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpDec 01, 2016Variant summary: The BRCA2 c.6325G>A (p.Val2109Ile) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. 4/4 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant (SNPs&GO not captured due to low reliability index). This variant was found in 38/122036 control chromosomes, predominantly observed in the East Asian subpopulation at a frequency of 0.0038354 (33/8604). This frequency is about 5 times the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic BRCA2 variant (0.0007503), suggesting this is likely a benign polymorphism found primarily in the populations of East Asian origin. The variant has been reported in numerous affected individuals in the literature, mostly of Asian origin, without strong evidence for causality. BIC reports the variant in 2 individuals who also carry pathogenic variants (BRCA1 c.4163_4164insA; BRCA2 c.9076C>T), also supportive of a benign outcome. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as likely benign/benign, although some classify it as a VUS. Taken together, this variant is classified likley benign. -

Malignant tumor of breast Benign:1
Benign, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The BRCA2 p.Val2109Ile variant was identified in 7 of 1460 proband chromosomes from Asian individuals with breast or ovarian cancer, and was absent in 520 control chromosomes from healthy individuals (Choi 2004, Haffty 2009, Hu 2004, Kawahara 2004, Sekine 2001, Sugano 2008). The variant was also identified in HGMD, UMD (1X as an unclassified variant), and the BIC database (8X with unknown clinical importance). The variant is listed in dbSNP (ID: rs79456940) “With unknown allele”, with a minor allele frequency of 0.0005 from the 1000 Genomes project, though this frequency is based on only one occurrence of the variant in the tested cohort. The p.Val2109 residue is not conserved in mammals and lower organisms, and the variant amino acid isoleucine (Ile) is present in dog, increasing the likelihood that this variant does not have clinical significance. Computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein, and Myriad classifies this as a polymorphism (personal communication). In addition, this variant was identified by our laboratory in one individual with a co-occurring pathogenic variant, further increasing the likelihood that this variant may not have clinical importance. In summary, based on the above information, this variant meets our laboratory's criteria to be classified as benign. -
