GeneDx RCV000767150 SCV000566304 uncertain significance not provided 2018-06-04 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is denoted BRCA2 c.1709A>G at the cDNA level, p.Asn570Ser (N570S) at the protein level, and results in the change of an Asparagine to a Serine (AAT>AGT). Using alternate nomenclature, this variant would be defined as BRCA2 1937A>G. This variant has been reported in at least one individual with breast cancer (Briceno-Balcazar 2017). BRCA2 Asn570Ser was not observed in large population cohorts (Lek 2016). This variant is not located in a known functional domain. In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports that this variant does not alter protein structure/function. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether BRCA2 Asn570Ser is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance.
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000637388 SCV000758844 uncertain significance Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2024-11-14 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 570 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Asn570Ser). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 29021639). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 96768). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) 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.
Ambry Genetics RCV001012835 SCV001173337 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2024-02-23 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.N570S variant (also known as c.1709A>G), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA2 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1709. The asparagine at codon 570 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been reported in a cohort of 853 individual referred for BRCA1 and BRCA2 testing (Briceño-Balcázar I et al. Colomb. Med., 2017 Jun;48:58-63). This amino acid position is poorly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV001012835 SCV004361234 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2021-10-11 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces asparagine with serine at codon 570 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with breast cancer (PMID: 29021639) and in a breast cancer case-control meta-analysis in 1/53460 unaffected individuals and absent in 60466 cases (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_005818). This variant has not been identified 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.

Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System RCV000082889 SCV000591761 uncertain significance Breast-ovarian cancer, familial, susceptibility to, 2 no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The p.Asn570Ser variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in the BIC, LOVD, UMD, Google, Cosmic, HGMD databases.The variant was identified in ClinVar and was classified as an uncertain variant by the Sharing Clinical Reports Project (SCRP) (submitted within the ClinVar database and derived from Myriad reports). The p.Asn570 residue is not conserved in mammals and computational analyses (SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein. However, this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. In addition, in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) do not predict a signifcant difference in splicing. 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 unknown significance.
