Ambry Genetics	RCV000131689	SCV000186725	likely benign	Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome	2020-10-05	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.
GeneDx	RCV000044787	SCV000210622	likely benign	not specified	2017-11-02	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	RCV000044787	SCV000694915	likely benign	not specified	2024-07-30	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Variant summary: BRCA2 c.5896C>T (p.His1966Tyr) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 250972 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.5896C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with cancer phenotypes without strong evidence for causality (e.g. Spearman_2008, Caux-Montcoutier_2011, Lu_2015). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer. Co-occurrences with other pathogenic variants have been reported in two internal samples (BRCA1 c.213-11T>G; BRIP1 c.2392C>T, p.Arg798X), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 18824701, 21120943, 25348012, 26689913). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 38005). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign.

This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 38005), and is only observed on four alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. The histidine at codon 1966 is weakly conserved, and computational analyses are uncertain whether this variant is neutral or deleterious (REVEL: 0.184). Due to limited information, the clinical significance of the p.His1966Tyr variant is uncertain at this time.

Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System	RCV001356911	SCV001552198	likely benign	Malignant tumor of breast		no assertion criteria provided	clinical testing	The BRCA2 p.His1966Tyr variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in the Cosmic, Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database, databases. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs80358822) as With other allele, ClinVar (classified as likely benign by Invitae, GeneDx, Vantari Genetics, SCRP; classified as uncertain significance by Ambry Genetics, BIC), Clinvitae (conflicting interpretations of pathogenicity), MutDB, LOVD 3.0 (3X predicted neutral), UMD-LSDB (4X unclassified variant), BIC Database (5X with unknown clinical significance), ARUP Laboratories (uncertain significance), databases. The variant was identified in control databases in 3 of 277056 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.000011 (Genome Aggregation Consortium Feb 27, 2017). The p.His1966 residue is not conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) do not predict a difference in splicing. The variant is located with the Breast cancer type 2 susceptibility protein functional domain increasing the likelihood that it may have clinical significance. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign.
