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 Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJun 16, 2015The c.7209_7212delCAAAinsGG pathogenic mutation (also known as 7437delCAAAinsGG), located in coding exon 13 of the BRCA2 gene, results from the deletion of 4 nucleotides and insertion of two nucleotides causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon. This mutation has been reported in a high-risk breast and/or ovarian cancer patient in Austria (Tea MK et al. Maturitas. 2014 Jan;77(1):68-72).In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, since frameshifts are typically deleterious in nature, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation (ACMG Recommendations for Standards for Interpretation and Reporting of Sequence Variations. Revision 2007. Genet Med. 2008;10:294). -
Familial cancer of breast Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneKor MSAJan 01, 2020This sequence change deletes 4 nucleotides and inserts 2 other nucleotides in exon 14 of the BRCA2 mRNA. This creates a premature translational stop signal 7 amino acid residues later and is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Truncating variants in BRCA2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). This variant has been described in the international literature in an individual with a personal and/or family history of breast cancer and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 24156927) and in an individual undergoing panel testing for hereditary syndrome (PMID: 31159747). The mutation database ClinVar contains entries for this variant (Variation ID: 232446). -
Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeMar 06, 2018This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys2404Glyfs*7) in the BRCA2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has been reported in an individual with a personal and/or family history of breast cancer and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 24156927). Loss-of-function variants in BRCA2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
