Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000059.4(BRCA2):c.8940delA(p.Glu2981LysfsTer7) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. K2980K) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:2
For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Loss-of-function variants in BRCA2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). A different variant (c.8941delG) giving rise to the same protein effect observed here (p.Glu2981Lysfs*7) has been reported in an individual with a personal and/or family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 24156927). This variant has been observed in an individual affected with breast cancer (PMID: 26824983). This variant is also known as c.8934delA in the literature. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 418600). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu2981Lysfs*7) in the BRCA2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. -

not provided Pathogenic:1
This deletion of one nucleotide in BRCA2 is denoted c.8940delA at the cDNA level and p.Glu2981LysfsX7 (E2981KfsX7) at the protein level. The normal sequence, with the base that is deleted in braces, is CAAAAAA[A]GAAA. The deletion causes a frameshift which changes a Glutamic Acid to a Lysine at codon 2981, and creates a premature stop codon at position 7 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.8940delA, also defined as c.8934delA or 9168delA by alternate nomenclature, has been reported in at least one patient with breast cancer (Lin 2016). We consider this variant to be pathogenic. -
