GeneDx RCV000431436 SCV000522175 uncertain significance not provided 2018-09-24 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is denoted BRCA2 c.2239G>A at the cDNA level, p.Glu747Lys (E747K) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Glutamic Acid to a Lysine (GAA>AAA). Using alternate nomenclature, this variant would be defined as BRCA2 2467G>A. This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as a pathogenic or benign germline variant. BRCA2 Glu747Lys 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 a deleterious effect. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether BRCA2 Glu747Lys is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance.

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV001861518 SCV002294146 uncertain significance Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2024-03-20 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 747 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Glu747Lys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRCA2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 382284). 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.
Ambry Genetics RCV002429388 SCV002726859 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2020-09-11 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.E747K variant (also known as c.2239G>A), located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 2239. The glutamic acid at codon 747 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
