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]

This variant has an overall allele frequency of 0.000017 in the Broad Institute gnomAD Browser (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). In silico analyses indicate this is an evolutionarily conserved residue. Thus, it is unknown at this time whether this variant increases cancer risk. PP3 -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsAug 25, 2022The p.A1439D variant (also known as c.4316C>A), located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 4316. The alanine at codon 1439 is replaced by aspartic acid, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This alteration has been detected in several cohorts of patients with a family history of breast and ovarian cancer (Vogel KJ et al. J. Clin. Oncol. 2007 Oct;25(29):4635-14; Lu W et al. Fam. Cancer. 2012 Sep;11(3):381-5; Ruiz A et al. Biomed. Res. Int. 2014 Jun;2014:542541; Gabaldó Barrios X et al. Fam. Cancer 2017 Oct;16(4):477-489). This amino acid position is poorly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00015 (5/33030 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJan 22, 2024Variant summary: BRCA2 c.4316C>A (p.Ala1439Asp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the BRCA2 repeat domain of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.1e-05 in 242828 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00015 within the Latino subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.4316C>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (example: Gabaldo Barrios_2017, Lu_2012, Ruiz_2014, Vogel_2007). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. Co-occurrences with other pathogenic variants have been reported (BRCA1 c.4327C>T, p.R1443X), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. 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: 28477318, 22476429, 25136594, 17925560). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37893). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
