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]

Seven of seven in silico tools predict a benign effect of this variant on protein function (BP4), but to our knowledge these predictions have not been confirmed by functional assays. This variant has been reported in 1 woman older than 70 years of age who have never had cancer (https://whi.color.com/variant/13-32950861-G-A). This variant was reported in an individual with prostate cancer (PMID: 34242281). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as of uncertain significance based on the ACMG/AMP criteria: BP4. -

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpNov 14, 2022Variant summary: BRCA2 c.8687G>A (p.Arg2896His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the tower domain within the OB2 fold (Karchin_2008) in the DNA binding region of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2e-05 in 252456 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.8687G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with a personal and/or family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (e.g. Lu_2012, Farra_2019, Salmi_2021), but was found also in healthy controls (e.g. Johnston_2012, and in the FLOSSIES database). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. At least one publication reported experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, and demonstrated that the variant protein had a similar activity to the wild type in a homology-directed repair assay (Karchin_2008). The HDR assay qualifies as a standardized gold-standard assay on the basis of the updated guidance provided by the ClinGen Sequence Variant Interpretation (SVI) Working Group (Brnich_2019). ClinGen SVI now recognizes benign functional evidence as sufficient for likely benign (Tavtigian_2018). Seven other clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation, and classified the variant as VUS (n=4), likely benign (n=4) or benign (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was re-classified as likely benign. -
Malignant tumor of breast Benign:1
Likely benign, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The p.Arg2896His variant is listed 3 times in the BIC database. It is listed in dbSNP database as coming from a "clinical source" (ID#: rs80359128) but no frequency information was provided, and so the frequency in the general population is not known. The p.Arg289 residue is not highly conserved in mammals and the variant amino acid histidine (His) is present in rat, mouse and chicken, increasing the likelihood this variant does not have important functional or clinical signficance. In addition, computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen2, and AlignGVGD) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein, but this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. In addition, one in-silico study reported this variant as neutral (Karchin 2008). In summary, based on the current information presented above, this variant is predicted benign. -
