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]

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp | Jun 20, 2022 | Variant summary: BRCA2 c.7522G>A (p.Gly2508Ser) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the helical domain (IPR015252) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0002 in 310330 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0023 within the East Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within East Asian control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 3-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in BRCA2 causing Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (HBOC) phenotype (0.00075), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of East Asian origin. The variant, c.7522G>A, has been reported in the literature in numerous individuals affected with tumors that belong to the HBOC spectrum, however it was also found in several healthy controls. These reports 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 (BRCA2 c.8340_8343delTAAC (p.Asn2781ValfsX39) in the BIC database and BRCA1 c.3627dupA (p.Glu1210Argfs) in Lim_2009), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. A large case-control study involving breast cancer patients and controls of Asian ancestry (Han_2017), found an enrichment of this variant in cases (OR: 3.02 (95%CI: 1.69-5.39), p-value: 0.000123). However, an other case-control association study, involving breast cancer patients and controls of Japanese ancestry (Momozawa_2018), did not demonstrate significant increase in breast/ovarian cancer risk (i.e. the variant was identified in 5/7051 female cases, and 6/11241 female controls; OR: 1.3 (95%CI: 0.3-5.2)). A further study, involving Korean breast cancer patients, where multifactorial probability was estimated by performing systematic assessments of variants of unknown significance in the BRCA genes (which included analysis of co-occurrence with known deleterious mutations, personal and family history of cancer and tumor pathology), predicted this variant to be likely pathogenic, although the variant was interpreted as likely benign when applying the ACMG/AMP guidelines (Lee_2018). Several publications reported experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, and demonstrated a mild impact on BRCA2 function, representing an activity comparable to wild-type, or a somewhat hypomorphic allele (e.g. Shimelis_2017, Mesman_2018, Guidugli_2018, Ikegami_2020). Eleven other clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. Multiple laboratories reported the variant with conflicting assessments (VUS, n=6, likely benign, n=3 or benign, n=2). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. - |

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Mar 20, 2024 | The p.G2508S variant (also known as c.7522G>A), located in coding exon 14 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 7522. The glycine at codon 2508 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration has been detected in multiple individuals diagnosed with breast and/or ovarian cancer (Suter NM et al. Cancer Epidemiol. Biomarkers Prev. 2004 Feb;13:181-9; Lim MC et al. J. Cancer Res. Clin. Oncol. 2009 Nov;135:1593-9; Ng PS et al. Clin. Genet. 2016 Oct;90:315-23; Yoon KA et al. Cancer Res Treat. 2017 Jul;49:627-634; Liang Y et al. Med. Sci. Monit. 2018 Apr;24:2465-2475; Wen WX et al. J. Med. Genet. 2018 Feb;55:97-103; Li JY et al. Int. J. Cancer. 2019 Jan;144:281-289; Zhang Y et al. BMC Cancer, 2022 Aug;22:842). Multiple case-control studies and a meta-analysis of the participants from the Breast Cancer Association Consortium and the Shanghai Breast Cancer Genetic Study show a statistically increased association of this variant with breast cancer (Zhang Y et al. Cancer Epidemiol. Biomarkers Prev. 2014 Apr;23:622-8; Han MR et al. Carcinogenesis. 2017 May;38:511-518; Shimelis H et al. Cancer Res. 2017 Jun;77:2789-2799). Various functional assays indicate that this alteration is intermediately impaired with respect to rescue of lethality in Brca2-null mouse embryonic stem cells, homology directed repair in two cell lines, and PARP inhibition (Shimelis H et al. Cancer Res. 2017 Jun;77:2789-2799). This alteration has been seen with two different pathogenic mutations and one likely pathogenic variant in BRCA2 (phase unknown) in individuals whose clinical histories are not suggestive of Fanconi Anemia (Ambry internal data). Based on data from gnomAD, the frequency for this variant is above the maximum credible frequency for a disease-causing variant in this gene based on internally established thresholds (Karczewski et al. Nature. 2020 May;581(7809):434-443; Whiffin et al. Genet Med. 2017 10;19:1151-1158). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. - |

Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria provided | clinical testing | Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System | - | The BRCA2, p.Gly2508Ser variant was identified in 6 of 1220 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.005) from individuals or families with breast, ovarian and thyroid cancers. (Lim 2009, Yu 2015, Wong 2016). The variant was also identified 1x in a study of 681 health controls in an east Asian individual (Bodian 2014). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs80358978) “With other allele.” This variant was identified in the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC) database (March 14, 2016) in 13 of 8636 chromosomes (frequency: 0 0.0015) in the East Asian population, and was not found in populations of South Asians, European (Non-Finnish), African, Latino, European (Finnish) and other individuals, increasing the likelihood that this may be a low frequency benign variant in certain populations of origin. In the Clinvar Database the variant was identified with conflicting interpretations: as likely benign by Invitae, GeneDX and Sharing Reports Project derived from Myriad reports, as uncertain significance by Ambry Genetics and BIC,classification was not provided by ITMI. In BIC the variant was identified 4x with unknown clinical significance. In the Fanconi Anaemia Mutation Database (LOVD) the variant was identified 2x (1x as neutral by Karchin 2008 and 1x as deleterious by Pettigrew 2008). This variant was not identified in NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (Exome Variant Server), COSMIC, GeneInsight COGR, or ARUP Laboratories Databases. The p.Gly2508 residue is conserved across mammals and lower organisms, and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) suggest that the Ser (Serine) variant may impact the protein. However, this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. Karchin et al 2008 has concluded the variant as predicted neutral using protein likelihood ratios to determine all variants of undetermined significance in the C-terminal binding domain of the BRCA2 protein. However, the variant was predicted to result in an increased exonic splice enhancer (ESE) motif score at an evolutionarily conserved ESE (Pettigrew 2008) and therefore the variant was concluded to be deleterious. In a multigene panel study of breast cancer predisposition in Asians, the authors categorized the p.Gly2508Ser variant as pathogenic using Manchester and Boadicea scores. Family history was evaluated in this multigene study (Wong 2016). In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. - |
