Ambry Genetics RCV000167041 SCV000217866 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2021-12-29 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.2679A>G variant (also known as p.Q893Q), located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 2679. This nucleotide substitution does not change the glutamine at codon 893. This nucleotide position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. Using the BDGP and ESEfinder splice site prediction tools, this alteration is predicted to create a new alternate splice acceptor site; however, direct evidence is unavailable. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano RCV002478517 SCV000600519 uncertain significance not provided 2023-05-31 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing To the best of our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the published literature. It also has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Analysis of this variant using software algorithms for the prediction of the effect of nucleotide changes on BRCA2 mRNA splicing yielded predictions that this variant may result in the gain of a cryptic splice site without affecting the natural splice sites . Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000506813 SCV001363202 uncertain significance not specified 2019-01-18 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: The variant BRCA2 c.2679A>G (p.Gln893=) alters a non-conserved nucleotide resulting in a synonymous change. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing through creation of new or activation of existing cryptic exonic splice donor/acceptor sites. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant was absent in 233462 control chromosomes (gnomAD). 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.2679A>G in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Two 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.
