Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV001193926 SCV001363101 likely pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2019-10-16 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: BRCA2 c.2886_3144del259 (p.His962GlnfsX6) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (eg. c.2899_2900delCT (p.Leu967ArgfsX14), c.2989_2990delTT (p.Leu997fsX11)). The variant was absent in approximately 20,000 control chromosomes (gnomAD, Structural Variants Dataset). To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.2886_3144del259 in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic.
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV001193926 SCV001396898 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2019-07-02 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Loss-of-function variants in BRCA2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with BRCA2-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.His962Glnfs*6) in the BRCA2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product.
Ambry Genetics RCV004033445 SCV005025825 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-10-16 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.2886_3144del259 pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of 259 nucleotides at nucleotide positions 2886 to 3144, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.H962Qfs*6). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function due to an abnormal transcript, a translational frameshift leading to premature truncation, or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
