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]

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Invitae | Dec 01, 2023 | This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp2990*) 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). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 20104584, 26287763, 26296701). This variant is also known as 9197G>A. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 126195). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. - |
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp | Jul 03, 2020 | Variant summary: BRCA2 c.8969G>A (p.Trp2990X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant was absent in 250750 control chromosomes. c.8969G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome and as a somatic occurrence in at-least one patient with triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) (example, Borg_2010, Ellingson_2015, Pal_2015, Pop_2018, Ryu_2019). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Four clinical diagnostic laboratories and one expert panel (ENIGMA) have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. - |

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Oct 14, 2021 | The p.W2990* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.8969G>A), located in coding exon 22 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 8969. This changes the amino acid from a tryptophan to a stop codon within coding exon 22. This pathogenic mutation has been reported in multiple women with early-onset and/or familial breast cancer (Borg A et al. Hum. Mutat. 2010 Mar; 31(3):E1200-40; Ellingson MS et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2015 Sep;153(2):435-43; Pal T et al. Cancer 2015 Dec;121(23):4173-80; Ryu JM et al. Breast Cancer Res Treat, 2019 Jan;173:385-395; Yadav S et al. J Clin Oncol, 2020 05;38:1409-1418; Dong L et al. Hum Mutat, 2018 10;39:1442-1455). In addition, studies have shown that c.8969G>A is located in a conserved exonic splice enhancing region and is predicted to enhance cryptic splicing (Pettigrew CA et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2008 Jul; 110(2):227-34; Acedo A et al. Breast Cancer Res. 2012; 14(3):R87). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, 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. - |
