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]

Variant summary: BRCA2 c.9509A>G (p.Asp3170Gly) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the OB3 fold (IPR015188) 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 4e-06 in 251308 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. In a recent large study evaluating breast cancer cases and controls in the Breast Cancer Association Consortium (BCAC), the variant was reported in 3/60466 cases, but was also found in 4/53461 controls (Dorling_2021 through LOVD). Publications also reported experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, and demonstrated similar homology-directed DNA damage repair (HDR) activity to the wild-type (Mesman_2018, Guidugli_2018). Multifactorial probability models, performing systematic assessments of variants of unknown significance in the BRCA genes, which included analysis of co-occurrence in trans with known deleterious mutations, personal and family history of cancer, tumor pathology and co-segregation with disease in pedigrees, predicted this variant to be neutral (Easton 2007 and Lindor 2012). Karchin_2008 classified variant as neutral based on protein likelihood ratio classification. Seven other submitters, including an expert panel (ENIGMA), have provided clinical-significance assessments for this variant in ClinVar after 2014, and classified the variant as likely benign (n=4) / benign (n=3; including the expert panel). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -

This alteration is classified as 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. -

The BRCA2 p.Asp3170Gly variant was identified in the literature however the frequency of this variant in an affected population was not provided (Easton 2007, Karchin 2008, Guidugli 2018, Lindor 2012). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs80359224) as "With other allele", in ClinVar (classified as benign by Ambry Genetics, ENIGMA, Quest Diagnostics, and ARUP Laboratories; as likely benign by Gene Dx, Color; and as uncertain significance by BIC and Integrated Genetics), LOVD 3.0 (7 entries), and UMD-LSDB (2 entries). The variant was identified in control databases in 1 of 246074 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.000004 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: European Non-Finnish in 1 of 111560 chromosomes (freq: 0.000009), while the variant was not observed in the African, Other, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, Finnish, and South Asian populations. Several variant model prediction programs conclude that the p.Asp3170Gly variant is not pathogenic (Easton 2007, Karchin 2008, Lindor 2012). A homology-directed DNA repair (HDR) assay in V-C8 cultured cells concluded that this variant was comparable to wild type and was classified as neutral (Guidugli 2018). The Asp3170 residue is not conserved in mammals and four out of five computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign. -
