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]

This nonsense variant, also known as 3772delTT and 3773delTT, has been reported in multiple unrelated individuals affected with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer.

This variant is found on only five chromosomes (5/250970 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. This variant deletes two nucleotides, induces an early termination codon and is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay.

It has also been identified in 0.004% (5/113332) of European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org); however, this frequency is low enough to be consistent with the frequency of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) in the general population. This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 1182, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Heterozygous loss of function of the BRCA2 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal dominant HBOC. Furthermore, the p.Phe1182X variant was classified as pathogenic on April 22, 2016 by the ClinGen-approved ENIGMA expert panel (ClinVar SCV000282379.1). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant HBOC. ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PVS1, PS4, PM2_Supporting. -

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 present in population databases (rs748852670, gnomAD 0.004%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 15131399, 20104584, 24156927, 25884701). This variant is also known as 3772delTT, c.3773delTT, and p.Phe1182Terfs. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37846).

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJul 18, 2021Variant summary: BRCA2 c.3545_3546delTT (p.Phe1182X) 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 allele was found at a frequency of 2e-05 in 250970 control chromosomes. c.3545_3546delTT has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (example, Rebbeck_2018). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories, an expert panel (ENIGMA) and a consortium (CIMBA) 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. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 30, 2021The c.3545_3546delTT pathogenic mutation (also known as p.F1182*), located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of two nucleotides at nucleotide positions 3545 to 3546. This changes the amino acid from a phenylalanine to a stop codon within coding exon 10. This mutation has been well described in the literature and has been seen in multiple individuals with a personal and/or family history consistent with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) syndrome, including several French-Canadian families (Lubinski J et al. Fam. Cancer. 2004;3:1-10; Oros KK et al. Int. J. Cancer. 2004 Nov;112:411-9; Simard J et al. J. Med. Genet. 2007 Feb;44:107-21; Borg A et al. Hum. Mutat. 2010 Mar;31:E1200-40; Belanger MH et al. J. Ovarian Res. 2015 Mar;8:1; Labidi-Galy SI et al. Clin. Cancer Res. 2018 Jan;24(2):326-333). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 3773delTT and 3772delTT in published literature. 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. -

This variant, also known as 3772delTT and 3773delTT, has been reported in individuals with breast, ovarian, and pancreatic cancer (see for example - Lubinski et al. 2004. PubMed ID: 15131399; Shindo et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28767289; Labidi-Galy et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29084914, Table S2; Heramb et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29339979). This variant is reported in 0.0044% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. Nonsense variants in BRCA2 are expected to be pathogenic, and this variant has been classified as pathogenic by an expert panel in the ClinVar database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/37846). This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
Malignant tumor of breast Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The p.Phe1182X variant has been identified in 4 out of 5086 proband chromosomes (frequency 0.001) in individuals with unilateral, contralateral and familial breast and ovarian cancer phenotype; however no control chromosomes were included in these studies (Lubinski 2004, Borg 2010). It is listed in dbSNP database coming from a “clinical source” (ID#: rs80359388) however no frequency information was provided. The variant was identified in ClinVar from 6 sources in at least 23 individuals from different ethnic backgroungs (GeneDx, BIC, Ambry, and SCRP derived from Myriad reports all classify this variant as pathogenic; Counsyl classified this variant as Likely pathogenic). This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein's amino acid sequence and leads to a premature stop codon at position 1182. This alteration is predicted to cause a truncated or absent BRCA2 protein product and loss of function. Loss of function of the BRCA2 gene is an established disease mechanism in familial breast and ovarian cancer patients. In summary, based on the above information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
