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.7481G>A (p.Arg2494Gln) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the helical domain (IPR015252) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 251442 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.7481G>A has been reported in the literature in at least one individual undergoing genetic analysis of the BRCA genes and in another individual with breast and/or ovarian cancer (Apessos_2018, Santarosa_1999). In functional study, the variant showed similar HDR (homology-directed DNA repair) activity compared to wild-type (Guidugli_2018, Richardson_2021). HDR assays qualify as a recognized gold standard on the basis of updated guidance provided by the ClinGen Sequence Variant Interpretation (SVI) working group. This working group has recommended strong functional evidence (ACMG BS3) as sufficient weightage for categorization as likely benign (Tavtigian_2018). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 10449599, 28591715, 29310832, 29394989, 31422574, 33609447). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 52341). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

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. -

Observed in individuals with personal and/or family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (Santarosa 1999, Apessos 2018); Published functional studies demonstrate no damaging effect: homology-directed repair activity comparable to wild-type (Guidugli 2018); In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports that this variant does not alter protein structure/function; Also known as 7709G>A; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 28591715, 10449599, 25801821, 25348012, 27071721, 19043619, 29394989, 29310832, 29884841) -
