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 submitter | clinical testing | ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories | Aug 24, 2023 | The BRCA2 c.4631delA, p.Asn1544ThrfsTer24 variant (rs80359461), also known as 4859delA and 4856delA, is reported in multiple patients with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome (see Ashour 2019, Carter 2018, Hopper 1999, Lilyquist 2017, Zhang 2011). This variant is also reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 37913). It is only found on one allele in the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant causes a frameshift by deleting a single nucleotide, so it is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Ashour M et al. Ezzat Shafik H.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | GeneDx | Jan 21, 2020 | Frameshift variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; Observed in individuals with BRCA2-related cancers, and has been described as a recurrent variant in the Filipino population (Risch 2001, De Leon-Matsuda 2002, Zhang 2011); Not observed in large population cohorts (Lek 2016); Truncating variants in this gene are considered pathogenic by a well-established clinical consortium and/or database; Also known as 4859delA; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 26681312, 18779604, 10498392, 30720243, 21324516, 11179017, 17591843, 11920621, 28454591, 26187060, 23364291, 17148771, 30322717, 31372034, 29625052, 31887429) - |
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano | Sep 30, 2019 | The BRCA2 c.4631del (p.Asn1544Thrfs*24) variant has been reported in the published literature in multiple individuals with hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer and is described as a founder mutation in the Filipino population (PMID: 10498392 (1999), 11179017 (2001), 11920621 (2002), 20807450 (2010), 21324516 (2011)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000004 (1/250170 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is consistent with pathogenicity. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. - |
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria provided | clinical testing | Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System | - | The BRCA2 p.Asn1544Thrfs*24 variant was identified in 8 of 5746 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.001) from individuals or families with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer and was not identified in 692 control chromosomes from healthy individuals (De Leon Matsuda 2002, Hopper 1999, Kurian 2008, Risch 2001, Zhang 2011). The variant was also identified in the following databases: dbSNP (ID: rs80359461) as “With Pathogenic allele”, ClinVar (10x as pathogenic, reviewed by expert panel), Clinvitae (8x as pathogenic, 1x as likely pathogenic and 1x as uncertain significance), and ARUP Laboratories (as definitely pathogenic). The variant was not identified in Cosmic, MutDB, LOVD 3.0, UMD-LSDB, BIC Database, or the Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database. The variant was also identified by our laboratory in 4 individuals with ovarian cancer. The variant is reported in the literature as a founder mutation in the Philippines (De Leon Matsuda 2002, Ferla 2007, Shanmughapriya 2013). The variant was not identified in the 1000 Genomes Project, the NHLBI GO Exome Sequencing Project or the Exome Aggregation Consortium (August 8th 2016). The p.Asn1544Thrfs*24 variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein's amino acid sequence beginning at codon 1544 and leads to a premature stop codon at position 1567. This alteration is then predicted to result in a truncated or absent protein and loss of function. Loss of function variants of the BRCA2 gene are an established mechanism of disease in hereditary breast and ovarian cancer and is the type of variant expected to cause the disorder. In summary, based on the above information this variant meets our laboratory’s criteria to be classified as pathogenic. - |

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina | Sep 05, 2023 | The BRCA2 c.4631del p.(Asn1544ThrfsTer24) variant causes a shift in the protein reading frame that is predicted to result in premature termination of the protein. Loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay is expected. Across a selection of the available literature, this variant, which is also described as c.4856delA and c.4859delA, has been reported in a heterozygous state in at least eight individuals with breast or ovarian cancer and has been shown to be a founder variant in the Philippines (PMID: 11920621; 21324516; 31372034; 11179017; 20807450). This variant is not observed at a significant frequency in version 2.1.1 or version 3.1.2 of the Genome Aggregation Database. This variant has been classified as pathogenic by multiple submitters in ClinVar, including the ENIGMA expert panel. Based on the available evidence, the c.4631del p.(Asn1544ThrfsTer24) variant is classified as pathogenic for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer. - |

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:5
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp | May 02, 2016 | Variant summary: The variant of interest causes a frameshift mutation resulting in a premature termination codon, a known mechanism for disease, as these types of variants are predicted to cause transcript degradation through nonsense mediated decay or produce a truncated protein. The variant of interest was observed in the large, broad control population, ExAC, 1/120458, although this observance needs to be cautiously considered due to the cohort harboring individuals with a phenotype that could harbor a BRCA2 mutation. The variant of interest has been reported in multiple affected individuals via publications, along with multiple reputable databases/clinical laboratories citing the variant as "pathogenic." Therefore, the variant of interest is classified as Pathogenic. - |
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine | Oct 14, 2019 | The p.Asn1544ThrfsX24 variant in BRCA2 (also referred to in the literature as c.4859delA) is a founder variant in the Phillipines and has been reported in >20 individuals with BRCA2-related cancers (Hopper 1999, Zhang 2011, De Leon Matsuda 2002, BIC database). It has also been identified in 1/34418 Latino 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 variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 1544 and leads to a premature termination codon 24 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the BRCA2 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal dominant hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome (HBOC). Additionally, this variant was classified as Pathogenic on Sept 8 2016 by the ClinGen-approved ENIGMA expert panel (Variation ID: 37913). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant HBOC. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PM2, PS4. - |

This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast or ovarian cancer (PMID: 10498392, 11920621, 17148771, 21324516, 26681312, 27153395, 30430080). This variant has been identified in 1/250170 chromosomes 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 submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | May 27, 2024 | The c.4631delA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 4631, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.N1544Tfs*24). This variant has been reported in multiple breast and/or ovarian cancer families (Hopper JL et al. Cancer Epidemiol. Biomarkers Prev. 1999 Sep;8:741-7; Risch HA et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 2001 Mar;68:700-10; De Leon Matsuda ML et al. Int. J. Cancer. 2002 Apr;98:596-603; Kurian AW et al. J. Clin. Oncol. 2008 Oct;26:4752-8; Zhang S et al. Gynecol. Oncol. 2011 May;121:353-7). In addition, it has been described as a founder pathogenic mutation in the Philippines (De Leon Matsuda ML et al. Int. J. Cancer, 2002 Apr;98:596-603). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 4856delA and 4859delA 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. - |
