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]

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

A known pathogenic mutation was detected in the BRCA2 gene(c.9257-1G>A). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 24 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 not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 25525159, 31589614, 32231684, 32733560, 25382762, 34290354, 31131967, 17924331, 29446198, 21120943, 30675319, 26187060, 22713736, 21990134) . It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 52792). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site is associated with altered splicing resulting in multiple RNA products (PMID: 21394826, 25382762). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

This variant disrupts a canonical splice-acceptor site and is predicted to interfere with normal BRCA2 mRNA splicing. This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). In the published literature, the variant has been reported in individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMIDs: 21120943 (2011), 30675319 (2019), 32733560 (2020), 34290354 (2021), and 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (https://databases.lovd.nl/shared/variants/BRCA2)). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

Canonical splice site variant predicted to result in a null allele in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Truncating variants in this gene are considered pathogenic by a well-established clinical consortium and/or database; Observed in individuals with a personal and/or family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer in the published literature (Caux-Moncoutier et al., 2011; Jalkh et al., 2012; Farra et al., 2019; Abdel-Razeq et al., 2020); Also known as 9485-1G>A; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25525159, 31589614, 32231684, 32733560, 25382762, 34290354, 31131967, 17924331, 29446198, 21120943, 30675319, 26187060, 22713736, 21990134) -

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

The c.9257-1G>A intronic variant results from a G to A substitution one nucleotide upstream from coding exon 24 of the BRCA2 gene. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. 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 acceptor site and will result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice acceptor site. RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in abnormal splicing in the set of samples tested (Ambry internal data). 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 likely pathogenic. -

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 not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 20960228, 21120943, 29446198; Invitae). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 52792). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
