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]

Variant summary: BRCA2 c.1689G>A (p.Trp563X) 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. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251158 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1689G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (examples: Lubinski_2004,Hondow_2011, Meeks_2016). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Seven clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and all classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp563*) 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 present in population databases (rs80358456, gnomAD 0.004%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with cancer (PMID: 15131399). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 51175). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The BRCA2 c.1689G>A (p.Trp563*) variant causes the premature termination of BRCA2 protein synthesis. This variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals with breast cancer (PMID: 36551643 (2022)) and a BRCA2 related cancer (PMID: 15131399 (2004)). In a large-scale breast cancer association study, the variant was observed in individuals with breast cancer as well as in a reportedly healthy individual (PMID: 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/genes/BRCA2)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000004 (1/251158 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is consistent with pathogenicity. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.W563* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1689G>A), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1689. This changes the amino acid from a tryptophan to a stop codon within coding exon 9. 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. -

This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been detected in 6 individuals affected with breast cancer and 1 individual affected with ovarian cancer (PMID: 29262651, 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_001852). This variant has been identified in 1/251158 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BRCA2 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

The BRCA2 p.Trp563X variant was identified in 1 of 880 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.001) from individuals or families across several ethnicities with ovarian, male breast, pancreatic, prostate, colon, stomach and melanoma cancers (Lubinski 2004). The variant was also identified in ClinVar as pathogenic by Evidence-based Network for the interpretation of Germline Mutant Alleles, in Consortium of Investigators of Modifiers of BRCA1/2, in Invitae, in Breast Cancer Information Core, and in Research Molecular Genetics Laboratory, Women's College Hospital; and as likely pathogenic by Counsyl and Clinvitae. The variant was also identified 4X in LOVD 3.0 database with a frequency of 0.001, in BIC 6X as Class 5 with clinical importance, and in ARUP Laboratories databases 1X as definitely pathogenic . The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID:rs 80358456) as “with pathogenic allele”, Cosmic, MutDB, UMD-LSDB, Zhejiang Colon Cancer databases or in the 1000 Genomes and the NHLBI GO sequencing projects. The variant was identified in control databases in 1 of 246026 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.000004 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). Breakdown of the observations by population include European Finnish in 1 of 22280 chromosomes (freq: 0.00005), while the variant was not observed in the African, Other, Latino, European Non-Finnish, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, and South Asian populations. The c.1689G>A variant leads to a premature stop codon at position 563 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. -
