Breast-ovarian cancer, familial, susceptibility to, 2 Uncertain:2
The BRCA2 p.Lys2657Asn variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in dbSNP, 1000 Genomes Project, NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (Exome Variant Server), Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC) database, Clinvitae database, LOVD, ARUP Laboratories BRCA Mutations Database, COSMIC, the ClinVar database, GeneInsight COGR database, the BIC database and BRCA Share. The p.Lys2657 residue is conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and 2 of 5 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -
The missense variant in c.7971A>C(p.Lys2657Asn) in BRCA2 gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. The p.Lys2657Asn variant is novel (not in any individuals) in gnomAD Exomes and 1000 Genomes. This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS). The amino acid Lys at position 2657 is changed to a Asn changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Uncertain Significance (VUS). -

Observed in an individual with breast and/or ovarian cancer (Singh 2018); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Also known as 8199A>C; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 29470806, 12228710) -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
This missense variant replaces lysine with asparagine at codon 2657 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses are inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function. Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
The p.K2657N variant (also known as c.7971A>C), located in coding exon 16 of the BRCA2 gene, results from an A to C substitution at nucleotide position 7971. The lysine at codon 2657 is replaced by asparagine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant was observed in a study of 1010 unrelated Indian patients who underwent testing for an indication of breast and/or ovarian cancers (Singh J et al. Breast Cancer Res Treat, 2018 Jul;170:189-196). Another variant at the same codon, p.K2657T (c.7970A>C), has been detected in individuals with ovarian, breast and/or pancreatic cancer (Ambry internal data). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Uncertain:1
This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 2657 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Lys2657Asn). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 29470806). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA2 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 433820). -
