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]

affects a donor splice site in intron 9 of the BRCA2 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and likely results in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a BRCA2-related disease. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 52437) with 8 submissions describing this variant as either pathogenic or likely pathogenic. In summary, donor and acceptor splice site variants are typically truncating (PMID: 16199547), and truncating variants in BRCA2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). Therefore, this variant has been classified as pathogenic. -

This variant causes a G to A nucleotide substitution at the +1 position of intron 9 of the BRCA2 gene. Splice site prediction tools predict that this variant may have a significant impact on RNA splicing. Although this prediction has not been confirmed in published RNA studies, this variant is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. A variant at the same position, 793+1G>T, has been reported in RNA studies to result in exon 9 skipping and a premature translation stop signal (PMID: 30883759). This variant has been reported in four individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 31125106, 35264596, 36980780, 3723905) and in four families among the CIMBA participants (PMID: 29446198). This variant has been reported in a multifactorial analysis with segregation, tumor pathology, co-occurrence and family history likelihood ratios for pathogenicity of 1.862, 1.07, 1.050 and 0.920, respectively (PMID: 31131967). This variant has been identified in 1/31208 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BRCA2 function is a known mechanism of disease. Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

The c.793+1G>A intronic pathogenic mutation results from a G to A substitution one nucleotide after coding exon 8 of the BRCA2 gene. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. This alteration has been reported in multiple individuals from breast, ovarian, and pancreatic cancer cohorts (Lowery M et al. J. Natl. Cancer Inst. 2018 10;110(10):1067-1074; Rebbeck T et al. Hum. Mutat. 2018 05;39(5):593-620; Teixeira N et al. Eur. J. Hum. Genet. 2018 06;26(6):848-857; Tsaousis G et al. BMC Cancer 2019 Jun;19(1)). RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in abnormal splicing in the set of samples tested (Ambry internal data). In addition, a close match alteration, BRCA2 c.793+1G>T results in skipping of coding exon 8 (also called Exon 9) by minigene analysis (Fraile-Bethencourt E et al. J. Pathol., 2019 08;248:409-420). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). 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. Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

PVS1, PM2_Supporting, PP1_Moderate c.793+1G>A, located in a canonic splicing site of the BRCA2 gene, is predicted to alter splicing, probably causing the skipping of exon 9 (PVS1). It is not present in the population database gnomAD v2.1.1 (non-cancer, exome only subset)(PM2_supporting). The variant cosegregates with the disease (LR=18.6)(PMID:31131967)(PP1_Moderate). In addition, it was identified in the following databases: BRCA Exchange (Not Yet Reviewed), ClinVar (1x likely pathogenic, 9x pathogenic) and LOVD (5x pathogenic). Based on currently available information, c.793+1G>A is classified as a pathogenic variant according to ClinGen-BRCA1 and BRCA2 Guidelines version v1.0.0. -

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 9 of the BRCA2 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in BRCA2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). This variant is present in population databases (rs81002846, gnomAD 0.01%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer and with pancreatic cancer (PMID: 23961350, 29093764, 29446198, 29483665, 29506128). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 52437). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site alters mRNA splicing and is expected to lead to the loss of protein expression (PMID: 30883759). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
