Description

The BRCA2 p.Glu2663Val variant has been identified in 4/5646 proband chromosomes (frequency 0.001) of individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer, and was not identified in 360 control chromosomes, increasing the likelihood this variant may have clinical significance (Akbari_2011_21965345, Borg_2010_20104584, Chenevix-Trench_2006_16489001, Sanz_2010_20215541, Walker_2010_20513136). The variant is listed in the dbSNP database (ID: rs80359031), but no frequency information was provided, and so the prevalence of this variant in the general population is not known. It has been reported in the BIC (9x) database as a variant of unknown significance. The p.Glu2663 residue is conserved across mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen, SIFT, AlignGVGD) suggest that the p.Glu2663Val variant may impact the protein. Additionally, computational prediction software (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, HumanSpliceFinder) predicts this variant could potentially generate a cryptic splice site; however, these in silico tools are not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. Functional studies evaluating splicing predict this variant to be deleterious (Capanu_2011_21520273, Farrugia_2008_18451181, Karachin_2008_19043619, Kuznetsov_2008_16489001, Lindor_2012_21990134); Farrugia et al 2008 demonstrated this variant results in skiipping of exon 18 and is predicted to cause a premature truncation of the BRCA2 protein. However, one study evaluating LOH in tumours identified this variant on the lost allele suggesting neutrality (Chenevix-Trench_2006_16489001). Cosegregation analysis based on data compiled by Myriad Genetics calculated this variant to have odds of 233:1 in favour of causality (Easton_2007_17924331). The variant has been shown to segregate with cancer in multiple families in Myriad's internal data (personal communication). In summary, based on the above information, this variant is classified as pathogenic.

Description

The BRCA2 c.7988A>T variant is classified as Pathogenic (PS3, PS4, PP3, PP5) The BRCA2 c.7988A>T variant is a single nucleotide change in the BRCA2 gene, which is predicted to change the amino acid glutamic acid at position 2663 in the protein to valine. The variant has been reported in probands with a clinical presentation of breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID:29446198) (PS4). Well-established functional studies show a deleterious effect of this variant (PMID:20513136) (PS3). Computational predictions support a deleterious effect on the gene or gene product (PP3). Splicing predicitors predict abberrant splicing (introduction of donor site), resulting in exon skipping (exon19). The variant has been reported in dbSNP (rs80359031) and has been reported as Pathogenic by other diagnostic laboratories (ClinVar Variation ID: 52462).

Description

This missense variant replaces glutamic acid with valine at codon 2663 in the DNA binding domain of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies have shown the mutant protein to be incapable of complementing BRCA2-deficiency in mouse embryonic stem cells (PMID: 18607349) and to exhibit reduced homologous DNA repair activity (PMID: 20513136). In addition, multiple RNA studies have shown that this variant affects RNA splicing and results in the production of transcripts lacking the entire or partial exon 18, or both exons 17 and 18, all predicted to cause premature protein truncation (PMID: 18451181, 20215541, 20513136). The amount of full length transcript produced from the mutant allele was greater than that of aberrant transcripts. However, the ratio of aberrant transcript to full length transcripts was higher in carrier individuals than in non-carrier individuals of this variant (PMID: 20513136). These functional study results indicate that this variant inactivates BRCA2 gene function, both by disrupting protein function and by dysregulating RNA splicing. This variant has been reported in over ten individuals affected with breast cancer, ovarian cancer or pancreatic cancer (PMID: 16489001, 17924331, 18451181, 18446624, 20104584, 20513136, 21965345, 23242139, 25452441, 33808557, 33439686; Color internal data). The variant has been shown to segregate with cancer in multiple families (ClinVar SCV000592166.2) and determined to have a high probability of being disease-causing by multifactorial likelihood analysis using computational prediction, functional study data and genetic data (PMID: 17924331, 18451181, 21990134). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.
