Ambry Genetics | RCV002427791 | SCV002680451 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2019-09-25 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.Y2726F variant (also known as c.8177A>T), located in coding exon 17 of the BRCA2 gene, results from an A to T substitution at nucleotide position 8177. The tyrosine at codon 2726 is replaced by phenylalanine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration was identified in a cohort of 912 epithelial ovarian cancer patients (Cunningham JM et al. Sci Rep, 2014 Feb;4:4026). 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. |
