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]

Submissions by phenotype

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 21, 2015This variant affects a a donor splice site in intron 2. It is expected to disrupt mRNA splicing and likely results in an absent or disrupted protein product. While this particular variant has not been reported in the literature, truncating variants in BRCA2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
