Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1 PM2 PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000059.4(BRCA2):​c.7115C>A​(p.Ser2372Ter) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. S2372S) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 13-32354968-C-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr13-32354968-C-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 441507.Status of the report is reviewed_by_expert_panel, 3 stars.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	Jan 15, 2020	This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 14 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 not been identified 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. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Apr 11, 2019	The p.S2372* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.7115C>A), located in coding exon 13 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 7115. This changes the amino acid from a serine to a stop codon within coding exon 13. A different nucleotide substitution resulting in a stop codon at the same position (c.7115C>G; p. S2372*) has been identified in a cohort of patients with acinar pancreatic cancer, a rare form of pancreatic cancer distinct from ductal adenocarcinoma (Furukawa T et al. Sci Rep 2015; 5:8829). 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. -

This pathogenic variant is denoted BRCA2 c.7115C>A at the cDNA level and p.Ser2372Ter (S2372X) at the protein level. The substitution creates a nonsense variant, which changes a Serine to a premature stop codon (TCA>TAA), and is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Although this variant has not, to our knowledge, been reported in the literature, it is considered pathogenic. -

Nov 17, 2021

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 441507). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with pancreatic, breast, or ovarian cancer (PMID: 25743105, 32427313, 32885271). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser2372*) 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). -
