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]

In the published literature, the variant has been reported in individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 28222693 (2017), 27376475 (2016), 26689913 (2015), 14973102 (2004), 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/genes/BRCA2)). The variant has also been reported in unaffected individuals (PMID: 32467295 (2020), 28222693 (2017), 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/genes/BRCA2)). Published functional studies have reported conflicting results on the effect of this variant on BRCA2 protein function (PMID: 33314489 (2021), 29394989 (2018)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00075 (15/19954 chromosomes in East Asian subpopulation, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is higher than would generally be expected for pathogenic variants in this gene. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded conflicting predictions that this variant is deleterious or benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

The BRCA2 c.8356G>A; p.Ala2786Thr variant (rs80359077), also known as 8584G>A for traditional nomenclature, is reported in the literature in individuals with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome (Lai 2017, Suter 2004, Thirthagiri 2008, Wong 2015), but is also reported in healthy controls (Lai 2017). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 52560). It is found in the general East Asian population with an allele frequency of 0.08% (15/19954 alleles, including 1 homozygote) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The alanine at codon 2786 is highly conserved, and computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is deleterious. Due to limited information, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain at this time. REFERENCES Lai KN et al.

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. -

Variant summary: BRCA2 c.8356G>A (p.Ala2786Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 6e-05 in 251430 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00076 within the East Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygote. This frequency is higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in BRCA2 causing Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (0.00076 vs 0.00075), suggesting it might be a benign variant primarily in the populations of East Asian origin. c.8356G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome without strong evidence for causality (example, Kwong_2016, Schenkel_2016, Suter_2004, Thirthagiri_2008, Wong_2015), it is also reported in both breast cancer (BC) cases and in unaffected controls (Dorling_2021). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. Moreover, no significant allelic differences of this variant have been identified in large-scale Asian case-control studies: i.e. the variant was similarly present in 10/7,840 BC cases and in 11/7,928 controls (P=0.85, Sullivan_2021). In another multi-ethnic Asian case-control study, the variant was also found insignificantly in both Breast Cancer (BC) cases and healthy controls: 8/2088 (0.17%) in BC cases and 4/1448 (0.28%) in healthy controls (P=0.5, Lai_2017). Additionally, at least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. Assays measuring cellular viability and sensitivity to DNA damaging agents in a mouse embryonic stem cellbased model showed this variant produced the same effect as WT (Sullivan_2021). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 33471991, 26187060, 28222693, 27376475, 33314489, 14973102, 18627636, 26221963). Nine submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 (Likely benign, n=5; VUS, n=4). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

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

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -
