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]

The BRCA2 p.Ser368* variant was identified in 1 of 7294 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.0001) from an Austrian individual with personal or family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (Tea 2014). The variant was also identified in dbSBP (ID: rs80358407) as “With Pathogenic allele”, ClinVar (7x classified as pathogenic: ENIGMA Study, CIMBA Univ of Cambridge, Invitae, GeneDx, Ambry Genetics, Quest Diagnostics, BIC), Clinvitae (4x classified as pathogenic: ClinVar, Invitae), Genesight-COGR (2x classified as pathogenic: COGR consensus, Sinai Health System), BIC Database (1x classified as pathogenic), databases. The variant was not identified in COSMIC, MutDB, LOVD 3.0, UMD-LSDB, or the Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database. The variant was also identified by our laboratory in 1 individual with breast cancer. The variant was not identified in the 1000 Genomes Project, the NHLBI GO Exome Sequencing Project or the Exome Aggregation Consortium (August 8th 2016) control databases. The p.Ser368* variant leads to a premature stop codon at position 368, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein and loss of function. Loss of function variants of the BRCA2 gene are an established mechanism of disease in hereditary breast and ovarian cancer and is the type of variant expected to cause the disorder. In summary, based on the above information this variant meets our laboratory’s criteria to be classified as pathogenic. -

The BRCA2 c.1103C>A (p.Ser368*) variant causes the premature termination of BRCA2 protein synthesis. This variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals with breast cancer (PMID: 24156927 (2014), 32885271 (2021)). This variant has also been identified in a world-wide screening study of BRCA1/BRCA2 mutation carriers (PMID: 29446198 (2018)). This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

The p.S368* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1103C>A), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 1103. This changes the amino acid from a serine to a stop codon within coding exon 9. This mutation was seen in one individual in a cohort of female BRCA2 mutation carriers (Tea MK et al. Maturitas 2014 Jan; 77(1):68-72). 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. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: BRCA2 c.1103C>A (p.Ser368X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant was absent in 249768 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1103C>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer (Lebo_2018, Rebbeck_2018, Tea_2014). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. A different nucleotide change at the same position as the variant of interest (c.1103C>G) resulting in the same nonsense change (p.Ser368X) has been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. Seven ClinVar submitters including an expert panel (ENIGMA) cite the variant as pathogenic (evaluations after 2014). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser368*) 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). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with a personal or family history of breast or ovarian cancer (PMID: 24156927). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 51064). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
