Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000689614 SCV000817273 uncertain significance Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2024-05-07 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 2272 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Arg2272Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs199522406, gnomAD 0.007%). 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: 569078). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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 RCV001025681 SCV001187921 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-11-09 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.R2272K variant (also known as c.6815G>A), located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 6815. The arginine at codon 2272 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV002509514 SCV002819367 uncertain significance not specified 2022-12-01 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: BRCA2 c.6815G>A (p.Arg2272Lys) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of four in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 250316 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.6815G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome, without strong evidence for causality (Azribi_2021). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.
