Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV001339039 SCV001532754 uncertain significance Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2024-03-25 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change falls in intron 8 of the BRCA2 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the BRCA2 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRCA2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1036086). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
Ambry Genetics RCV002368118 SCV002665089 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2024-09-26 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.681+5G>A intronic variant results from a G to A substitution 5 nucleotides after coding exon 7 in the BRCA2 gene. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in a splice defect; the clinical impact of this abnormal splicing is unknown at this time (Ambry internal data). Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear.
