GeneDx RCV000373216 SCV000330693 pathogenic not provided 2016-07-26 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.5557dupT pathogenic variant in the BRCA2 gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. The c.5557dupT variant causes a frameshift starting with codon Cysteine 1853, changes this amino acid to a Leucine residue, and creates a premature Stop codon at position 5 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Cys1853LeufsX5. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. The c.5557dupT variant was not observed in approximately 6500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. We interpret c.5557dupT as an expected pathogenic variant.
GeneKor MSA RCV000373216 SCV000821713 pathogenic not provided 2021-01-09 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is a single base pair insertion in exon 11 of the BRCA2 mRNA, causing a frameshift after codon 1853 and this creates a premature translational stop signal 5 amino acid residues later. This is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Truncating variants in BRCA2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). This variant has been described in the international literature in individuals undergoing panel testing for hereditary syndrome (PMID: 31159747). The mutation database ClinVar contains entries for this variant (Variation ID: 280750).
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV001064092 SCV001228968 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2023-08-24 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 280750). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 30720863). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Cys1853Leufs*5) in the BRCA2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BRCA2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584).
