GeneDx RCV000482674 SCV000565694 pathogenic not provided 2015-05-12 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This deletion of one nucleotide is denoted BRCA2 c.6980delT at the cDNA level and p.Leu2327Ter (L2327X) at the protein level. The normal sequence, with the base that is deleted in braces, is TCTT[T]AGAG. The deletion creates a nonsense variant, which changes a Leucine to a premature stop codon. Using alternate nomenclature, this variant would be defined as BRCA2 7208delT. Although this variant has not been previously reported to our knowledge, it is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, and is considered pathogenic.
Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine RCV000496430 SCV004847886 likely pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2019-10-14 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Leu2327X variant in BRCA2 has not been previously reported in individuals with hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer (HBOC) and was absent from large population studies, but has been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 252419). This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 2327, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the BRCA2 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal dominant HBOC. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for autosomal dominant HBOC. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PM2.
Ambry Genetics RCV004020974 SCV005029276 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-10-03 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.6980delT pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 12 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 6980, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.L2327*). This mutation has been reported in a patient at risk for hereditary breast cancer (Morgan JE et al. Hum Mutat, 2010 Apr;31:484-91) and in a cohort of 4439 women with ovarian cancer undergoing multigene panel testing at one laboratory (Carter NJ et al. Gynecol Oncol, 2018 Dec;151:481-488). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
