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]

Loss-of-function variants of BRCA2 are known to be pathogenic. The c.3689del variant was reported in multiple individuals with ovarian, breast and colorectal cancer (PMID: 24728189, 29337092, 32034076, 27356891, 34994648). This variant is reported in ClinVar as pathogenic (ID: 37853). This variant is absent in the general population database (gnomAD).

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesFeb 14, 2018The BRCA2 c.3689delC: p.Ser1230fs variant (rs80359398), also known as 3917delC, is published in the medical literature in individuals with pancreatic or ovarian cancer (Lucas 2014, Song 2014). The variant is listed as pathogenic by several sources in the ClinVar database (Variation ID: 37853), but is not listed in the population databases (1000 Genomes Project, Exome Variant Server, Genome Aggregation Database), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant deletes one nucleotide, causes a frameshift, and is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. Considering available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. References: Lucas AL et al.

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:3
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpDec 18, 2020Variant summary: BRCA2 c.3689delC (p.Ser1230LeufsX9) 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 252552 control chromosomes. c.3689delC 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. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Seven 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. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpDec 08, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser1230Leufs*9) 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 ovarian cancer, colorectal cancer, and a personal or family history of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PMID: 24728189, 24737347, 27356891). This variant is also known as 3917delC. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37853). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsApr 22, 2022The c.3689delC pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at position 3689, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.S1230Lfs*9). This mutation has been reported in individuals with hereditary ovarian and/or pancreatic cancer (Song H et al. Hum. Mol. Genet. 2014 Sep;23:4703-9; Lucas AL et al. Cancer. 2014 Jul;120:1960-7). This mutation has also been reported in an individual who also carried a frameshift mutation in BRCA1 (Rebbeck TR et al. Breast Cancer Res. 2016 Nov;18:112). 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. -
