Description

The p.I2627F variant (also known as c.7879A>T), located in coding exon 16 of the BRCA2 gene, results from an A to T substitution at nucleotide position 7879. The isoleucine at codon 2627 is replaced by phenylalanine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been classified as pathogenic (p>0.99) by multifactorial analysis, which integrates the following lines of evidence to produce a quantitative likelihood of pathogenicity: in silico prediction models, segregation with disease, tumor characteristics, mutation co-occurrence, and functional assay results (Easton D et al. Am J Hum Genet. 2007;81:873-883; Vallee M et al. Hum Mutat. 2012 Jan;33(1):22-8; Lindor NM et al. Hum. Mutat. 2012;33(1):8-21; Hendriks G et al. Hum. Mutat. 2014;35(11):1382-91). In multiple studies, this alteration was detected in several individuals with breast or ovarian cancer (Spitzer E et al. Int. J. Cancer 2000;85(4):474-81; Balabas A et al. Fam. Cancer 2010;9(3):267-74; Stegel V et al. BMC Med. Genet. 2011;12():9; Kluska A et al. BMC Med Genomics 2015;8():19; Couch FJ et al. J. Clin. Oncol. 2015;33(4):304-11; Meisel C et al. Arch. Gynecol. Obstet. 2017 May;295(5):1227-1238; Zakrzewski F et al. BMC Cancer 2019 Apr;19(1):396). This alteration was identified in 1/150 unselected patients with recurrent or metastatic prostate cancer (Isaacsson Velho P et al. Prostate 2018 04;78:401-407). A homology-directed DNA repair (HDR) assay demonstrated p.I2627F to have low functionality, with a probability of pathogenicity of 0.990 (Guidugli L et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 2018 Feb;102(2):233-248). In another study, this variant was non-functional in a homology-directed DNA repair (HDR) assay (Hart SN et al. Genet Med. 2019 01;21:71-80). In addition, a mouse embryonic stem cell assay showed that p.I2627F was unable to complement Brca2-deficient cell lethal phenotype (Mesman R et al. Genet. Med. 2019 02;21(2):293-302). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic.

Description

This missense variant replaces isoleucine with phenylalanine at codon 2627 in the DNA binding domain of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies have reported that this variant impacts BRCA2 function in homology-mediated repair and complementation of Brca2-deficient mouse embryonic stem cells (PMID: 18451181, 23108138, 29394989, 29988080, 33609447). This variant has been reported in over ten individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 10699917, 20104584, 20383589, 21520273, 29335924) and prostate cancer (PMID: 29368341). This variant also has been reported with a family history likelihood ratio for pathogenicity of 2.61 (PMID: 18451181), and it has been observed in six breast cancer-affected individuals of Macedonian origin, who showed significant family history of BRCA2-related cancers (PMID: 29335924). 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.
