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]

The c.9117+1G>A intronic pathogenic mutation results from a G to A substitution one nucleotide after coding exon 22 of the BRCA2 gene. This mutation has been shown by RT-PCR to result in aberrant splicing by causing skipping of coding exon 22 (Acedo A et al. Breast Cancer Res. 2012 May 25;14(3):R87; Ambry internal data). Furthermore, this mutation is noted to be a Finnish founder mutation and has been reported in multiple breast and/or ovarian cancer families (Marroni F et al. Eur J Hum Genet. 2004 Nov;12(11):899-906; Tea MK et al. Maturitas. 2014 Jan;77(1):68-72; Apostolou P et al. eLS. John Wiley & Sons, Ltd: Chichester. 2015 Jan; Rebbeck TR et al. Hum Mutat, 2018 05;39:593-620). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as a disease-causing mutation. -

Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant causes a G to A nucleotide substitution at the +1 position of intron 23 of the BRCA2 gene. RNA studies using a minigene system have shown that this variant causes out-of-frame skipping of exon 23, predicted to result in a premature translation stop signal (PMID: 22632462). This variant has been reported in several individuals with a personal or family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 15340362, 24156927, 25863477, 29084914, 29446198). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Different variants affecting the same splice donor site, c.9117+2T>A and c.9117G>A, are known to be disease-causing (ClinVar variation ID: 52756, 38215). Loss of BRCA2 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 23 of the BRCA2 gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or altered protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with a personal and/or family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 24156927, 29084914, 29446198). This variant is also known as 9345+1G>A and IVS23+1G>A. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 52754). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site alters mRNA splicing and is expected to lead to the loss of protein expression (PMID: 22632462). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Variant summary: BRCA2 c.9117+1G>A is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Two predict the variant abolishes a 5' splicing donor site. At least one publication reports experimental evidence that this variant affects mRNA splicing, leading to exon 23 skipping, which is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature termination codon (p.Val2985GlyfsX3; e.g., Acedo_2012). The variant was absent in 248378 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.9117+1G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (e.g., Rebbeck_2018). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 22632462, 29446198). Six submitters have reported clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

This variant is located in a canonical splice-donor site and interferes with normal BRCA2 mRNA splicing. The variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer in the published literature (PMID: 29084914 (2018), 24156927 (2014)). Splicing analysis by lymphocyte RT-PCR and splicing reporter minigenes, shows that the variant results in the skipping of exon 23 (PMID: 22632462 (2012)). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
