Description

The c.2971_2983del13 pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of 13 nucleotides at nucleotide positions 2971 to 2983, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.N991Dfs*3). 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). 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.

Description

This variant deletes 13 nucleotides 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 an individual affected with breast cancer (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_004438), an individual suspected to be affected with Lynch Syndrome (PMID: 25980754) and in one 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.
