The variant received 22 classification points (ACMG Germline Pathogenicity v2019). PVS1PS3PM2PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000059.4(BRCA2):c.8009C>A (p.Ser2670*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant is predicted to lead to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). The variant is absent from the gnomAD population database at sites with sufficient sequencing coverage. In-silico predictor (BayesDel (noAF)) classifies this variant as likely damaging/oncogenic. Splicing prediction tools (SpliceAI) predict no significant impact on normal splicing. The affected nucleotide is highly conserved across species (PhyloP 100-way vertebrate score: 7.50). Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic (★★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV001587431: Studies have shown that this premature translational stop signal alters mRNA splicing and is expected to lead to the loss of protein expression (PMID:28339459)." and additional evidence is available in ClinVar.

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]

Classification according to ACMG Germline Pathogenicity v2019

Classification was made for transcript:

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 22 points.

PVS1Null variant in LOF gene
Frameshift/stop-gained, NMD predicted, LoF disease mechanism — very strong (PVS1); Stop-gained (exon 18 of 27) at amino acid 2670 of 3418, predicted to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Loss of function is a known disease mechanism for this gene.
PS3Functional studies show damaging effect
Well-established functional study supports damaging effect (PS3); SCV001587431: Studies have shown that this premature translational stop signal alters mRNA splicing and is expected to lead to the loss of protein expression (PMID: 28339459).; SCV000661413: This mutation was identified in a hereditary breast cancer family (Sinilnikova OM et al. Fam. Cancer, 2006;5:15-20) and one study demonstrated that this mutation triggered nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (Ware MD et al. Oncogene, 2006 Jan;25:323-8).
PM2Absent/extremely low in population databases
Absent from gnomAD (AD/XL gene) — PM2; Absent from gnomAD at well-covered site (MOI: AD+AR) (base 0.0001, raised to 0.000139 by highest known P/LP ClinVar AF 0.000139) — PM2 moderate.
PP5Reputable source reports pathogenic
ClinVar ≥3 stars pathogenic — very strong (PP5); ClinVar germline classification: Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic, 3 star(s).
