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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 13-32340673-TC-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr13-32340673-TC-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 266939.Status of the report is reviewed_by_expert_panel, 3 stars. Variant chr13-32340673-TC-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic]. Variant chr13-32340673-TC-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Dec 27, 2023	The c.6320delC pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 6320, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.P2107Lfs*12). This alteration was identified in a large, worldwide study of BRCA1/2 mutation positive families (Rebbeck TR et al. Hum Mutat, 2018 05;39:593-620). This alteration was also detected on a 25-gene panel test in a woman of Western/Northern European ancestry who was diagnosed with breast cancer before age 50 (Tung N et al. Cancer, 2015 Jan;121:25-33). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	Mar 17, 2022	This variant deletes 1 nucleotide in exon 11 of the BRCA2 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in 2 individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 25186627, Color internal data) and has been identified in 1 family among the CIMBA participants (PMID: 29446198). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BRCA2 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

This frameshift variant alters the translational reading frame of the BRCA2 mRNA and causes the premature termination of BRCA2 protein synthesis. It has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). In the published literature, the variant has been reported in an individual with breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 25186627 (2015)), as well as a family with a history of hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 29446198 (2018)). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Pro2107Leufs*12) in the BRCA2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BRCA2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with a personal history or increased risk of breast and ovarian cancers (PMID: 25186627, 29446198). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 266939). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
