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 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).

Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant was absent in 251050 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.5482_5486delAAATT has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer (e.g. Kwong_2016, Momozawa_2018, 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. Three ClinVar submitters have cited this variant (after 2014) as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

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 (PMID: 26187060, 30287823). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 41553). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 01, 2022The c.5482_5486delAAATT pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of 5 nucleotides at nucleotide positions 5482 to 5486, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.K1828Vfs*4). This mutation was reported in a 56 year old Japanese female who underwent exome analysis as a subject ascertained for atherosclerosis phenotypes; she did not meet cancer family history based referral criteria (Johnston JJ, Am. J. Hum. Genet. 2012 Jul; 91(1):97-108). This alteration has also been reported as a pathogenic mutation in cohorts of East Asian individuals (Kwong A et al. J. Med. Genet., 2016 Jan;53:15-23; Momozowa Y et al. Nat Commun 2018 10;9(1):4083). 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. -

Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The p.Lys1828ValfsX4 variant was identified in the literature in a French family with hereditary breast or ovarian cancer (Lecarpentier 2012). The variant was also identified in the GeneInsight COGR database (classified as pathogenic by a clinical laboratory); UMD (2X, classified as “causal”); the BIC database (4X, with clinical significance), and the ClinVar database (classified as pathogenic by the Biesecker Laboratory - ClinSeq Project, Sharing Clinical Reports Project, BIC, and Ambry Genetics). The p.Lys1828ValfsX4 deletion variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein's amino acid sequence beginning at codon 1828 and leads to a premature stop codon 4 codons downstream. This alteration is then predicted to result in a truncated or absent protein and loss of function. In summary, based on the above information, this variant meets our laboratory’s criteria to be classified as pathogenic. -
