Description

The p.Gly500fs variant in BRCA2 has been reported in at least 2 individuals with BRCA2-associated cancers (Meindl 2002) and was absent from large population stu dies. The p.Gly500fs variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters t he protein?s amino acid sequence beginning at position 500 and leads to a premat ure termination codon 9 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicte d to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Heterozygous loss of function of the BRCA2 gene is an established disease mechanism in hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC). In addition, this variant was classified as Pathogenic on Septem ber 8, 2016 by the ClinGen-approved ENIGMA expert panel (ClinVar SCV000300434.2) . In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for HBO C in an autosomal dominant manner based upon segregation studies and the predict ed impact to the protein.

Description

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gly500Valfs*9) 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 breast cancer (PMID: 11802209). This variant is also known as 1727delG. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 51135). RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this premature translational stop signal on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (internal data). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
