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 submitterclinical testingNew York Genome CenterAug 06, 2021The BRCA2 c.5799_5802del, p.Asn1933LysfsTer29 variant, also known as 6027del4 in alternative nomenclature, is reported in the literature in several individuals with a personal and/or family history of breast cancer (PMID: 22682623, 28008555). This variant is absent from the gnomAD v3.1.1 database, suggesting it is not a common benign variant in the populations represented in this database. This variant causes a frameshift by deleting four nucleotides, which is predicted to result in atruncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. Based on the available evidence, c.5799_5802del, p.Asn1933LysfsTer29 variant in the BRCA2 gene is classified as pathogenic. -

This variant is absent from general population databases (Exome Variant Server, Genome Aggregation Database), indicating it is not a common polymorphism, and it is reported as pathogenic by multiple laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID: 37998). This variant causes a frameshift by deleting four nucleotides, 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: Dutil J et al.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJan 05, 2022The c.5799_5802delCCAA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of 4 nucleotides at nucleotide positions 5799 to 5802, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.N1933Kfs*29). This mutation has been reported in multiple breast and/or ovarian cancer families (Lubinski J et al. Fam. Cancer. 2004;3:1-10; Dutil J et al. Cancer Genet. 2012 May;205:242-8; Wong E et al. Genomic Medicine. 2016 Jan;1:15003; Pritzlaff M et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2017 Feb;161:575-586). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 6027del4 in published literature. 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. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthNov 13, 2023This variant deletes 4 nucleotides in exon 11 of the BRCA2 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is also known as 6072del4 in the literature. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in several individuals affected with breast or ovarian cancer (PMID: 22682623, 26221963, 28008555, 29263802, 29308099, 30322717). This variant has also been reported in six suspected hereditary breast and ovarian cancer families (PMID: 15131399, 29446198). 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). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:3
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpOct 16, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Asn1933Lysfs*29) 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 a personal and/or family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 15131399, 22682623, 26681312, 28008555). This variant is also known as 6027del4. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37998). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMar 04, 2019Variant summary: BRCA2 c.5799_5802delCCAA (p.Asn1933LysfsX29) 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. Other truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant was absent in 245780 control chromosomes. c.5799_5802delCCAA has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer. 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. Nine clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
