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]

Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant is denoted BRCA2 c.8572C>A at the cDNA level, p.Gln2858Lys (Q2858K) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Glutamine to a Lysine (CAA>AAA). Using alternate nomenclature, this variant would be defined as BRCA2 8800C>A. This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. BRCA2 Gln2858Lys was not observed in large population cohorts (NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, The 1000 Genomes Consortium 2015, Lek 2016). Since Glutamine and Lysine differ in some properties, this is considered a semi-conservative amino acid substitution. BRCA2 Gln2858Lys occurs at a position that is conserved in mammals and is located in the DNA binding domain (Yang 2002). In silico analyses are inconsistent regarding the effect this variant may have on protein structure and function. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether BRCA2 Gln2858Lys is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

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. -

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

This missense variant replaces glutamine with lysine at codon 2858 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function. Functional studies have shown this variant does not impact BRCA2 function in a homology-directed DNA repair assay (PMID: 35736817), or cell viability and drug sensitivity in mouse embryonic stem cells (PMID: 37922907). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 27153395, 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_000348) and in a multifactorial analysis with co-occurrence and family history likelihood ratios for pathogenicity of 1.102 and 0.1509, respectively (PMID: 31131967). This variant has been identified in 1/251230 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Variant summary: BRCA2 c.8572C>A (p.Gln2858Lys) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Tower domain (IPR015205) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.9e-05 in 1613808 control chromosomes (gnomAD database v4). This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in BRCA2 causing Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (1.9e-05 vs 0.00075), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.8572C>A has been reported in the literature as a VUS in at-least one individual affected with Ovarian Cancer and no family history of breast/ovarian cancer in first degree relatives, who underwent analysis limited to BRCA1/2 genes (example, Sokolenko_2020). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. At-least two co-occurrences with other pathogenic variant(s) have been reported in the UMD database (BRCA2 c.9117G>A, p.Pro3039Pro; BRCA2 c.5909C>A, p.Ser1970*), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function and reports the variant as functional (Biswas_2023). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 19043619, 20858050, 22632462, 25348012, 31112341, 32776218, 37922907). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 52623). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
