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]

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

This missense variant replaces serine with threonine at codon 708 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 been reported in individuals affected with breast, ovarian and colorectal cancer and in similar number of unaffected individuals (PMID: 14973102, 26689913, 27157322, 30078507, 30093976, 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_007135). This variant has been identified in 7/282362 chromosomes 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: Likely benign
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

Variant summary: BRCA2 c.2122T>A (p.Ser708Thr) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.9e-05 in 305134 control chromosomes (gnomAD, Dong_2021). This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in BRCA2 causing Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (5.9e-05 vs 0.00075), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.2122T>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Colon Cancer (Chan_2018) and Breast and/or Ovarian Cancer (e.g. Dong_2018, Kwong_2016, Li_2018, Suter_2004, Lu_2015, Guo_2020, Dorling_2021, Feng_2023). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 30093976, 30039884, 27157322, 30078507, 26689913, 14973102, 32467295, 37116400, 31837001, 33471991). Seven ClinVar submitters have assessed the variant since 2014: five classified the variant as uncertain significance, and two as likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Uncertain:1

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 708 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Ser708Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs80358488, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer, colon cancer, and ovarian cancer (PMID: 14973102, 26689913, 30039884, 30078507, 30093976). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 51246). 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 with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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. -
