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]

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. -

The p.Arg2520Gln variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs80358982), LOVD, COSMIC, the ClinVar database (classified as a benign variant by the Sharing Clinical Reports Project, derived from Myriad reports), the BIC database (2X with unknown clinical importance), and UMD (1X as a UV variant).The p.Arg2520 residue is conserved across mammals and lower organisms, and four out of five computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) suggest that the p.Arg2520 variant may impact the protein. However, this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. A functional study by Farrugia (2008) suggested that the variant occurs at an evolutionarily conserved residue and classified the variant as a VUS. This variant displayed substantial increases in homology-directed recombination repair (HDR) activity and maintained the background level of centriole and centrosome amplification found in wild-type cells. Another functional study by Karchin (2008) demonstrated protein likelihood ratio of the variant in favor of protein loss of function and suggested uncertain prediction. 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 unknown significance. -

Variant summary: BRCA2 c.7559G>A (p.Arg2520Gln) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Breast cancer type 2 susceptibility protein, helical domain (IPR015252) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. These splicing predictions have been confirmed by analyzing the RNA from patients carrying this variant (Houdayer_2012). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.6e-05 in 251114 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.7559G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with breast cancer (example: Pal_2013 and Rodrguez-Balada_ 2019). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. At least one publication reports HDR assay experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. These results showed no damaging effect of this variant (Hu_2022). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 19043619, 18451181, 22505045, 35736817, 23320992, 31786208). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 96853). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
