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 submitter | clinical testing | Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano | Jan 15, 2021 | This frameshift variant causes the premature termination of BRCA2 protein synthesis. It has been reported in individuals affected with breast cancer in the published literature (PMID: 23179792 (2013), 20927582 (2011), 20104584 (2010)). This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations. Therefore, the variant is classified as pathogenic. - |

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp | May 18, 2023 | Variant summary: The variant, BRCA2 c.8594dupT (p.Leu2865PhefsX4) 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. The variant was absent in 245972 control chromosomes (gnomAD) and has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with breast cancer and pancreatic cancer (Borg_2010, Ding_2011, Nelson-Moseke_2013, Hu_2018). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with Hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 20104584, 20927582, 23179792, 29922827). Six clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and all of them classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. - |
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Invitae | Oct 28, 2023 | This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu2865Phefs*4) 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 BRCA2-related conditions (PMID: 20104584). This variant is also known as 8823insT. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 52631). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. - |

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | May 17, 2024 | The c.8594dupT pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 19 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a duplication of T at nucleotide position 8594, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.L2865Ffs*4). In one large study, this mutation was observed in 1 of 705 patients with contralateral breast cancer and not in any of the 1398 patients with unilateral breast cancer (Borg A et al. Hum. Mutat. 2010 Mar;31:E1200-40). In another study, this mutation was detected in a Hispanic male diagnosed with breast cancer (Ding YC et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2011 Apr;126:771-8). Of note, this mutation is also designated as 8822insT 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. - |
