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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 22, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Thr630Asnfs*14) 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 and prostate cancer (PMID: 20736950, 25682074). This variant is also known as 2117delC. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 51221). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpSep 08, 2016Variant summary: The BRCA2 c.1889delC (p.Thr630Asnfs) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent BRCA2 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 (e.g. c.1929delG (p.Arg645fs), c.2103_2106delTATT (p.Phe701fs), and c.2212dupT (p.Cys738fs). The variant of interest has not been observed in controls (ExAC, 1000 Gs, or ESP) and has been reported in multiple affected individuals via publications and databases. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories cite the variant as "pathogenic." Therefore, the variant of interest has been classified as "Pathogenic." -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthMar 06, 2023This variant deletes 1 nucleotide in exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in individuals with a personal or family history of breast, ovarian, or prostate cancer (PMID: 20736950, 25682074, 27153395, 29371908, 30883245, Color internal data). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BRCA2 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsFeb 20, 2024The c.1889delC pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 1889, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.T630Nfs*14). This mutation has been reported in a cohort of men with prostate cancer undergoing clinical BRCA1/2 testing, as well as in a woman with triple negative breast cancer at age 48 and a mother with breast cancer at age 39 (Edwards SM et al. Br. J. Cancer 2010 Sep;103(6):918-24; Wong-Brown MW et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2015 Feb;150(1):71-80). This alteration was also identified in a large, worldwide study of BRCA1/2 mutation positive families (Rebbeck TR et al. Hum Mutat, 2018 05;39:593-620) and in an individual undergoing pancreatic cancer screening due to a family history of breast and ovarian cancer (Abe T et al. J Clin Oncol, 2019 05;37:1070-1080). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). 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. -
