Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 4 ACMG points: 4P and 0B. PM1PM2

The NM_000059.4(BRCA2):​c.7708A>G​(p.Lys2570Glu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. K2570R) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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]

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
Jul 13, 2016
Ambry Genetics
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.K2570E variant (also known as c.7708A>G), located in coding exon 15 of the BRCA2 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 7708. The lysine at codon 2570 is replaced by glutamic acid, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant was not reported in population based cohorts in the following databases: Database of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (dbSNP), NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), and 1000 Genomes Project. In the ESP, this variant was not observed in 6503 samples (13006 alleles) with coverage at this position. To date, this alteration has been detected with an allele frequency of approximately 0.0007% (greater than 300000 alleles tested) in our clinical cohort. Based on protein sequence alignment, this amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of p.K2570E remains unclear. -

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Uncertain:1
Feb 11, 2016
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces lysine with glutamic acid at codon 2570 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Lys2570Glu). The lysine residue is moderately conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between lysine and glutamic acid. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency) and has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a BRCA2-related disease. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). In summary, this is a novel missense change with uncertain impact on protein function. It has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
