Ambry Genetics	RCV000167014	SCV000217837	likely benign	Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome	2021-05-12	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity.
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	RCV000637700	SCV000759171	uncertain significance	Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome	2024-01-13	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 4 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Gly4Ala). This variant is present in population databases (rs587782137, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast or ovarian cancer (PMID: 35918668). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 187296). 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 with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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.
Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	RCV000167014	SCV001343728	uncertain significance	Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome	2021-01-20	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This missense variant replaces glycine with alanine at codon 4 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). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has been identified in 7/282778 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.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	RCV001280619	SCV001467844	uncertain significance	not specified	2020-12-18	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Variant summary: BRCA2 c.11G>C (p.Gly4Ala) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.4e-05 in 251378 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.11G>C in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.

Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System	RCV001356441	SCV001551611	uncertain significance	Breast-ovarian cancer, familial, susceptibility to, 2		no assertion criteria provided	clinical testing	The BRCA2 p.Gly4Ala variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in the LOVD 3.0 database. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs587782137) as “With Uncertain significance allele” and ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by Invitae and Ambry Genetics). The variant was identified in control databases in 6 of 277156 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00002 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017), observed in the East Asian population in 6 of 18864 chromosomes (freq: 0.0003), while it was not observed in the African, Other, Latino, European Non-Finnish, Ashkenazi Jewish, European Finnish, or South Asian populations. The p.Gly4 residue is not conserved in mammals and four out of five computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood the Ala variant impacts the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and 2 of 4 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing; this is not very predictive of pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance.
