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 deletion of two nucleotides in BRCA2 is denoted c.538_539delAT at the cDNA level and p.Ile180PhefsX2 (I180FfsX2) at the protein level. The normal sequence, with the bases that are deleted in brackets, is ACAT[delAT]TTCT. The deletion causes a frameshift which changes an Isoleucine to a Phenylalanine at codon 180, and creates a premature stop codon at position 2 of the new reading frame. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. BRCA2 c.538_539delAT, also defined as 766_767delAT, has been observed in an individual with a personal history of prostate cancer and family history of breast cancer (de Juan 2015). We consider this variant to be pathogenic. -

The c.538_539delAT pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 6 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of two nucleotides at nucleotide positions 538 to 539, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.I180Ffs*2). This alteration has been reported in at least one affected individual in a family meeting HBOC criteria (de Juan I et al. Fam. Cancer, 2015 Dec;14:505-13). This alteration was also detected in a cohort of 8085 consecutive unselected Chinese breast cancer patients who underwent multi-gene panel testing. (Sun J et al. Clin. Cancer Res., 2017 Oct;23:6113-6119). 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. -

Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRCA2-related conditions. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 51850). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ile180Phefs*2) 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). -
