GeneDx RCV000213393 SCV000279918 uncertain significance not provided 2016-02-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is denoted BRCA2 c.6859A>G at the cDNA level, p.Arg2287Gly (R2287G) at the protein level, and results in the change of an Arginine to a Glycine (AGA>GGA). Using alternate nomenclature, this variant would be defined as BRCA2 7087A>G. This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. BRCA2 Arg2287Gly was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, suggesting it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Since Arginine and Glycine differ in polarity, charge, size or other properties, this is considered a non-conservative amino acid substitution. BRCA2 Arg2287Gly occurs at a position that is conserved across species and is not located in a known functional domain. In silico analyses predict that this variant is probably damaging to protein structure and function. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether BRCA2 Arg2287Gly is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance.
Ambry Genetics RCV001025736 SCV001187983 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-04-14 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.R2287G variant (also known as c.6859A>G), located in coding exon 11 of the BRCA2 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 6859. The arginine at codon 2287 is replaced by glycine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV001220368 SCV001392354 uncertain significance Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2023-07-15 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing 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. 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. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 234856). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRCA2-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 2287 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Arg2287Gly).
