Evidence-based Network for the Interpretation of Germline Mutant Alleles (ENIGMA) RCV000495225 SCV000579051 likely benign Breast-ovarian cancer, familial, susceptibility to, 2 2017-06-29 reviewed by expert panel curation Synonymous substitution variant, with low bioinformatic likelihood to result in a splicing aberration (Splicing prior probability 0.02; http://priors.hci.utah.edu/PRIORS/).
GeneDx RCV000160226 SCV000210610 benign not specified 2014-08-12 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.
Ambry Genetics RCV000163195 SCV000213716 likely benign Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2014-10-09 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000589985 SCV000694818 benign not provided 2016-09-02 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: The BRCA2 c.4977C>T (p.Ser1659Ser) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide, resulting in a synonymous change. One in silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant, and 5/5 in silico programs via Alamut predicting no significant effect on splicing, although these predictions have yet to be functionally assessed. This variant was found in 14/118706 control chromosomes, predominantly observed in the European (Non-Finnish) subpopulation at a frequency of 0.0002136 (14/65542). This frequency is slightly less than the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic BRCA2 variant (0.0007503), suggesting the variant could potentially be a benign polymorphism found primarily in the populations of European (Non-Finnish) origin. Additionally, the variant of interest has only been reported, to our knowledge, in one publication suggesting it was a somatic occurrence in a cell line, although information is limited. Furthermore, multiple reputable clinical laboratories have cited the variant with a classification of "likely benign/benign." In addition, a reputable database cites the variant to co-occur with another potentially pathogenic BRCA2 variant, c.6515C>A (p.Ser2172X) and in two LabCorp specimens, one with BRCA1 (p.K653fs*47) and one with a CHEK2 (c.1100delC), both of which are pathogenic. Therefore, taking all available lines of evidence into consideration, the variant of interest is classified as benign.
