Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000045397 SCV000073410 uncertain significance Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2025-01-13 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 2679 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Asp2679Gly). This variant is present in population databases (rs80359041, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with ovarian cancer (PMID: 33008098). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 52481). Invitae Evidence Modeling incorporating data from in vitro experimental studies (PMID: 33609447) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA2 function with a negative predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect BRCA2 function (PMID: 23108138, 29884841, 35736817). 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 RCV000131797 SCV000186848 likely benign Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2020-06-04 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 RCV000484310 SCV000567541 likely benign not specified 2018-02-22 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.
Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000131797 SCV000683938 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-04-20 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces aspartic acid with glycine at codon 2679 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies have shown that this variant does not impact homology-directed DNA repair activity (PMID: 23108138, 29884841, 33609447). This variant has been reported in two individuals affected with breast or ovarian cancer and in an unaffected individual (PMID: 33008098, 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_000266). This variant has been identified in 7/282620 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano RCV000759667 SCV000889149 uncertain significance not provided 2024-09-04 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The BRCA2 c.8036A>G (p.Asp2679Gly) variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer, as well as a reportedly healthy individual (PMIDs: 33008098 (2020) and 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/genes/BRCA2)). In vitro functional studies have shown that this variant does not substantially affect BRCA2 protein function in homology-directed DNA repair (HDR) assays (PMIDs: 23108138 (2013), 29884841 (2019), and 35736817 (2022)) The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00017 (6/35420 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000484310 SCV000916951 likely benign not specified 2024-01-16 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: BRCA2 c.8036A>G (p.Asp2679Gly) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the DNA binding domain (Guidugli_2012) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.4e-05 in 251214 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00014 within the Latino subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.8036A>G has been reported in the literature as a VUS in individuals affected with breast cancer or ovarian cancer (e.g. Guidugli_2012, Peixoto_2020) . These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. In vitro functional studies reported that this variant results in activity comparable to wild type in homology-directed DNA repair (HDR) assays (e.g. Guidugli_2012, Guidugli_2018, Richardson_2021), showing no damaging effect of this variant. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 24817641, 23108138, 24323938, 29394989, 29884841, 35736817, 19043619, 32850417, 33609447). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 52481). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign.

Breast Cancer Information Core (BIC) (BRCA2) RCV000113859 SCV000147255 uncertain significance Breast-ovarian cancer, familial, susceptibility to, 2 2001-10-29 no assertion criteria provided clinical testing
PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences RCV004732626 SCV005345165 uncertain significance BRCA2-related disorder 2024-03-06 no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The BRCA2 c.8036A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Asp2679Gly. This variant has been reported in two individuals in the Breast Cancer Information Core database (Szabo et al. 2000. PubMed ID: 10923033). Using functional and computational approaches this variant was reported to be benign (Guidugli et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29394989). In vitro experimental studies indicate this variant does not impact homology-directed DNA repair activity (Guidugli et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 23108138;). This variant is reported in 0.017% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD and has conflicting interpretations of likely benign and uncertain significance in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/52481/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.
