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]

Found in at least one patient with expected phenotype for this gene, and found in general population data at a frequency that is consistent with pathogenicity. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJul 19, 2016This deletion of 2 nucleotides in BRCA2 is denoted c.7254_7255delAG at the cDNA level and p.Arg2418SerfsX2 (R2418SfsX2) at the protein level. Using alternate nomenclature, this variant has been reported as BRCA2 7482delAG. The normal sequence, with the bases that are deleted in braces, is ACAG[AG]TTGA. The deletion causes a frameshift, which changes an Arginine to a Serine at codon 2418, 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.7254_7255delAG has been reported in association with early onset breast cancer in a Nigerian patient (Fackenthal 2012). We consider this variant to be pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsOct 07, 2021The c.7254_7255delAG pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 13 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of two nucleotides at nucleotide positions 7254 to 7255, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.R2418Sfs*2). This alteration has been identified in individuals diagnosed with breast cancer (Fackenthal JD et al. Int J Cancer, 2012 Sep;131:1114-23; Yadav S et al. J Clin Oncol, 2020 05;38:1409-1418). 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. -

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 04, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg2418Serfs*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). 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: 22034289). This variant is also known as 7482delAG. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 52300). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
