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:1Benign:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMay 25, 2023The p.E1456K variant (also known as c.4366G>A), located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 4366. The glutamic acid at codon 1456 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with similar properties. In a study of unselected Japanese breast cancer patients, this alteration was detected in 1/12490 male controls but not detected in 7051 breast cancer patients or in 11241 female controls (Momozawa Y et al. Nat Commun, 2018 10;9:4083). This alteration was also detected in a cohort of 1663 Brazilian breast cancer patients who underwent hereditary multigene panel testing (Guindalini RSC et al. Sci Rep, 2022 Mar;12:4190). This amino acid position is well 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 this alteration remains unclear. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxSep 04, 2015This variant is denoted BRCA2 c.4366G>A at the cDNA level, p.Glu1456Lys (E1456K) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Glutamic Acid to a Lysine (GAA>AAA). Using alternate nomenclature, this variant would be defined as BRCA2 4594G>A. This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. BRCA2 Glu1456Lys was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Since Glutamic Acid and Lysine differ in polarity, charge, size or other properties, this is considered a non-conservative amino acid substitution. BRCA2 Glu1456Lys occurs at a position that is not conserved and is located in a region of interaction with POLH and required for stimulation of POLH DNA polymerization activity (UniProt). In silico analyses are inconsistent regarding the effect this variant may have on protein structure and function. Based on currently available information, it is unclear whether BRCA2 Glu1456Lys is pathogenic or benign. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -
Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 19, 2024This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 1456 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Glu1456Lys). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 35264596). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 232573). 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 with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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. -
