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]

The p.Glu3309Lys variant in BRCA2 has been reported in one individual with breast cancer and 2 individuals with other cancers (Pal 2015 PMID: 26287763, Parry 2017 PMID: 28843361, Mandelker 2017 PMID: 28873162). It has also been identified in 0.08% (20/24958) of African chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may not impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. In summary, while the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain, these data suggest that it is more likely to be benign. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: BP4. -

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.9925G>A (p.Glu3309Lys) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.1e-05 in 282626 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0008 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately equal to the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in BRCA2 causing Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer phenotype (0.00075), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African or African-American origin. The variant, c.9925G>A, has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with cancer, including breast cancer and lung adenocarcinoma (Pal_2015, Lu_2015, Mandelker_2017, Parry_2017, Ren_2021). These reports however, do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer. At-least one co-occurrence with a pathogenic variant has been observed at our laboratory (BRCA2 c.7110dupA , p.Ser2371fsX21; internal testing), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. c.9925G>A has been reported in the FLOSSIES database in 9 women older than age 70 years who have never had cancer, providing further supporting evidence for a benign role. One publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, however, does not allow convincing conclusions about the variant effect (Ghosh_2015). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 24728327, 25451944, 26689913, 28873162, 26287763, 28843361, 34196900). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 52918). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
