Ambry Genetics RCV000214265 SCV000278341 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2024-05-29 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Y2789C variant (also known as c.8366A>G), located in coding exon 18 of the BRCA2 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 8366. The tyrosine at codon 2789 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This variant has been reported in 1/1120 pediatric cancer patients, who underwent whole genome sequencing and/or whole exome sequencing; this patient was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Zhang J et al. N. Engl. J. Med., 2015 Dec;373:2336-2346). This amino acid position is not well 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.

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000214265 SCV000911811 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-06-21 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces tyrosine with cysteine at codon 2789 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature and has been reported in an unaffected individual (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_008663). This variant has been identified in 1/251424 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.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV001553615 SCV001774535 uncertain significance not specified 2021-07-08 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: BRCA2 c.8366A>G (p.Tyr2789Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the BRCA2, OB1 domain (IPR015187) 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 4e-06 in 251424 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.8366A>G has been reported in the literature as a VUS of germline origin in at-least one individual with hypodiploid ALL (Zhang_2015) and as a presumed germline variant in the setting of Fibrolamellar hepatocellular carcinoma (Cornella_2015). These report(s) do 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. Four 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. Some submitters cite overlapping evidence utilized in the context of this evaluation. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.
Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano RCV001800379 SCV002046457 uncertain significance not provided 2024-11-20 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The BRCA2 c.8366A>G (p.Tyr2789Cys) variant has been reported in an individual each with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) (PMID: 26580448 (2015)), and an individual with Fibrolamellar hepatocellular carcinoma (FLC) (PMID: 25557953 (2015)). This variant has also been identified in a reportedly healthy individual (PMID: 35585550 (2022)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000004 (1/251424 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 conflicting predictions that this variant is benign or damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant.
Myriad Genetics, Inc. RCV000077025 SCV004043189 likely benign Breast-ovarian cancer, familial, susceptibility to, 2 2023-08-17 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is considered likely benign. This variant is strongly associated with less severe personal and family histories of cancer, typical for individuals without pathogenic variants in this gene [PMID: 25085752].
