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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	Nov 21, 2018	This deletion of two nucleotides in BRCA2 is denoted c.7211_7212delAA at the cDNA level and p.Lys2404SerfsX7 (K2404SfsX7) at the protein level. The normal sequence, with the bases that are deleted in brackets, is ACCA[delAA]GTCT. Using alternate nomenclature, this variant would be defined as BRCA2 7439delAA. The deletion causes a frameshift which changes a Lysine to a Serine at codon 2404, and creates a premature stop codon at position 7 of the new reading frame. Although this variant has not, to our knowledge, been reported in the literature as a germline variant, it is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. We consider this variant to be pathogenic. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Jan 18, 2022	The c.7211_7212delAA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 13 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of two nucleotides at nucleotide positions 7211 to 7212, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.K2404Sfs*7). This variant has been identified in at least one patient with a personal and family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (Maxwell KN et al. Am J Hum Genet, 2016 May;98:801-817). This alteration was also identified in a large, worldwide study of BRCA1/2 mutation positive families (Rebbeck TR et al. Hum Mutat, 2018 05;39:593-620). Additionally, this alteration was identified in an individual diagnosed with pancreatic cancer (Palacio S et al. J Gastrointest Oncol, 2019 Dec;10:1133-1139). 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 submitter	clinical testing	Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	Feb 07, 2022	This variant deletes 2 nucleotides in exon 14 of the BRCA2 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in 1 individual affected with metastatic pancreatic cancer (PMID: 31949930) and has been identified in 1 family among the CIMBA participants (PMID: 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. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys2404Serfs*7) 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 breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 29446198). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 52289). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
