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
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.S273* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.818C>A), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 818. This changes the amino acid from a serine to a stop codon within coding exon 9. This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). 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. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 10 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 detected in at least one individual affected with breast cancer and reported in a hereditary breast cancer family (PMID: 12938098, 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_004148). This and a different mutation resulting in a nonsense codon at the same position also have been identified in 3 families among the CIMBA participants (PMID: 29446198). 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. -

This variant is denoted BRCA2 c.818C>A at the cDNA level and p.Ser273Ter (S273X) at the protein level. Using alternate nomenclature, this variant is defined as BRCA2 1046C>A. The substitution creates a nonsense variant, which changes a Serine to a premature stop codon (TCA>TAA), and is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This variant has been reported in association with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (Meyer 2003) and is considered pathogenic. -

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 52523). This variant is also known as 1046C>A S273X. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 12938098, 29446198). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser273*) 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). -
