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]

The BRCA2 c.7857G>A (p.Trp2619*) variant causes the premature termination of BRCA2 protein synthesis. This variant has been reported in the published literature in multiple individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 21318380 (2011), 26306726 (2015), 27062684 (2016), 31446535 (2019), 32438681 (2020), 34072659 (2021), 35205366 (2022), 36292577 (2022)). This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp2619*) 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). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with a personal or family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 16234499, 26306726). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 38122). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: BRCA2 c.7857G>A (p.Trp2619X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant was absent in 251256 control chromosomes. c.7857G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (example, Rebbeck_2018). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories and one expert panel (ENIGMA) have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 17 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 been reported in at least five individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 21318380, 26306726, 32438681, 34072659, 35205366) and in a suspected hereditary breast and ovarian cancer family (PMID: 16234499). 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. -

The p.W2619* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.7857G>A), located in coding exon 16 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 7857. This changes the amino acid from a tryptophan to a stop codon within coding exon 16. This mutation has previously been reported in multiple individuals with clinical histories suggestive of hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer (Nanda R et al. JAMA. 2005 Oct;294:1925-33; Hansen TV et al. Fam. Cancer. 2011 Jun;10:207-12). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). 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. -

The p.Trp2619X variant has been reported in the literature in 1/310 proband chromosomes from an individual in a family with hereditary breast and ovariant cancer. However, no control chromosomes were tested to establish its frequency in the general population (Nanda 2005). It was also reported in the BIC (x1) database. The variant leads to a premature stop codon at position 2619 which is predicted to cause premature truncation or absent protein product and loss of function. Loss of function of the BRCA2 gene is an established disease mechanism for hereditary breast and ovariant cancer. In summary, based on the above information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
