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:2Benign:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 30, 2021The p.S538N variant (also known as c.1613G>A), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1613. The serine at codon 538 is replaced by asparagine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration was identified in an individual diagnosed with pancreatic cancer (Zhen DB et al. Genet Med, 2015 Jul;17:569-77). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 1841G>A in published literature. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submittercurationUniversity of Washington Department of Laboratory Medicine, University of WashingtonMar 23, 2023Missense variant in a coldspot region where missense variants are very unlikely to be pathogenic (PMID:31911673). -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthJul 07, 2021This missense variant replaces serine with asparagine at codon 538 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with pancreatic cancer (PMID: 25356972). This variant has been identified in 1/249588 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMar 30, 2022Observed in an individual with pancreatic cancer (Zhen 2015); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Also known as 1841G>A; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25356972) -
Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpSep 01, 2022This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 538 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Ser538Asn). 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. 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. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 489744). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with familial pancreatic cancer (PMID: 25356972). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). -
