Ambry Genetics RCV000164328 SCV000214959 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2021-08-20 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.M927V variant (also known as c.2779A>G), located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 2779. The methionine at codon 927 is replaced by valine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. Two functional studies have used homologous recombination (HR) based assays to show that this alteration increases the rate of HR comparable to wild-type BRCA2 and is therefore likely non-pathogenic (Balia C et al. Breast Cancer Res Treat. 2011 Oct;129(3):1001-9; Spugnesi L et al. Mutagenesis. 2013 Mar;28(2):187-95). Balia et al also noted that the tumor from the individual with this alteration did not show loss of heterozygosity, and while the data was not shown, the authors mentioned that this variant did not segregate with disease in the family. This alteration has also been reported in two individuals from the same Serbian family, both with breast cancer (Dobricic J et al. J Hum Genet. 2013 Aug;58(8):501-7). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 3007A>G in published literature. This amino acid position is not well 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.
GeneDx RCV000426572 SCV000521705 likely benign not specified 2017-11-16 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000426572 SCV000694625 uncertain significance not specified 2023-01-03 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: BRCA2 c.2779A>G (p.Met927Val) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 250872 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.2779A>G has been reported in the literature as not co-segregating with disease in at-least one family affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer (HBOC) (example, Balia_2011) and in at-least two individuals from high risk families using an in-silico tool (Polyphen) as the basis of causality (Dobricic_2013). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function (Balia_2011). These results showed no damaging effect of this variant on BRCA2 DNA repair activity in a yeast based experimental system. Eight clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. Multiple laboratories reported the variant with conflicting assessments (VUS, n=6; likely benign, n=2). Some submitters cite overlapping evidence utilized in the context of this evaluation. Based on the evidence outlined above, pending independent corroboration of the reported neutral functional outcome by another independent study, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign.

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000164328 SCV000906050 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-05-15 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces methionine with valine at codon 927 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). Functional studies using a homology-mediated DNA repair assay that examines low-frequency spontaneous repair events and a yeast DNA repair assay have both shown this variant protein to be repair proficient (PMID: 21671020, 23328489). This variant has been reported in families and individuals affected with breast/ovarian cancer (PMID: 21671020, 23635950, 35402282). This variant has been reported in a multifactorial analysis as likely benign based in part to segregation and family history likelihood ratios (PMID: 31131967). 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.
