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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesJun 10, 2020The BRCA2 c.800G>A; p.Gly267Glu variant (rs80359036) is reported in the literature in several individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer, although its clinical significance in these individuals was not determined (Alhuqail 2018, Davies 2017, Loizidou 2017, Santonocito 2020). This variant is found on only six chromosomes (6/111498 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The glycine at codon 267 is weakly conserved, and computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is tolerated. Functional studies suggest normal DNA damage repair activity, but cells expressing this variant exhibit defects in cytokinesis (von Nicolai 2016). Due to limited information, the clinical significance of the Gly267Glu variant is uncertain at this time. References: Alhuqail AJ et al.

Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The BRCA2 p.Gly267Glu variant was identified in 1 of 1120 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.0009) from individuals with breast cancer and was classified as uncertain significance (Davies 2017 PMID: 28288110). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs80359036) as "With Uncertain significance allele", in ClinVar (Likely Benign 1x by Ambry, Uncertain Significance 5x by CHEO, GeneDx, Quest, Invitae and BIC), Cosmic (2x classified as neutral), and UMD-LSDB (15x classified as unknown variant and in one case identified with co-occurring pathogenic variant BRCA2 c.7235insG). The variant was not identified in GeneInsight-COGR, MutDB, LOVD 3.0, BIC Database, ARUP Laboratories, or Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database. The variant was identified in control databases in 7 of 239416 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00003 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). Breakdown of the observations by population include European Non-Finnish in 7 of 109718 chromosomes (freq: 0.00006), while the variant was not observed in the African, Other, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, Finnish, and South Asian populations. Although the p.Gly267Glu residue is not conserved in mammals and other organisms, 4 of 5 computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) suggest that the G variant may impact the protein. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) do not predict a difference in splicing. 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. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpOct 16, 2023Variant summary: BRCA2 c.800G>A (p.Gly267Glu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. TA recent report from the CAGI5 (fifth Critical Assessment of Genome Interpretation) challenge has classified this variant as a VUS (class 3: 0.05<p<0.949) in a prediction protocol that includes assessment of the impact of this variant on splicing and protein function using four sets of predictors (Padilla_2019). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.5e-05 in 243540 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. The variant, c.800G>A, has been listed to be found in an individual affected with Fanconi anemia, however no further details were provided on this case (Nicchia_2015), in addition, the variant was also reported as a VUS in settings of multigene panel testing among individuals affected with breast/ovarian cancer (e.g. Davies_2018, Loizidou_2017, Joharah Alhuqail_2018, Kowalik_2018, Machakova_2019, Santonocito_2020, Abdel-Rezeq_2022, Bhai_2021), however it was also found in controls (e.g. it was found in 1/7325 European American women, who are older than age 70 years, and who have never had cancer in the FLOSSIES database). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. In a recent large study evaluating breast cancer cases and controls in the Breast Cancer Association Consortium (BCAC), the variant was reported in 4/60466 cases, but was also found in 5/53461 controls (Dorling_2021, reported through LOVD). In addition, at-least one co-occurrence with another pathogenic variant has been reported in the UMD database (BRCA2 c.7235insG, p.Thr2412SerfsX2), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. To our knowledge, no peer-reviewed publications report experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 35402282, 34326862, 31294896, 28288110, 33471991, 24121792, 29297111, 30040829, 27882536, 31409081, 25348012, 26740942, 31112341, 31131967, 32438681, vonNicolai_no PMID). Eight submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 (VUS, n=3, Likely benign, n=5). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign. -
