Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000167960 SCV000218608 uncertain significance Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2024-09-17 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 2839 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Tyr2839His). This variant is present in population databases (rs758884639, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 29470806, 35918668). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 188108). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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.
GeneDx RCV000586024 SCV000569757 uncertain significance not provided 2024-03-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Also known as 8743T>C; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 27093186, 31131967, 12228710, 29470806, Tria2019[CaseReport], 35918668, 32467295, 33471991)
Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000580149 SCV000683977 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-02-21 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces tyrosine with histidine at codon 2839 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with breast or ovarian cancer (PMID: 29470806). This variant has also been reported in a breast cancer case-control meta-analysis in 1/60465 cases and 2/53459 unaffected individuals (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_008676). This variant has been identified in 6/251166 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 RCV000586024 SCV000695162 uncertain significance not provided 2017-02-27 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: The c.8515T>C (p.Tyr2839His) in BRCA2 gene is a missense change that involves a mildly conserved nucleotide and 4/5 in silico tools predict deleterious outcome. The variant of interest is located outside of any known functional domain or repeats, however no studies determining the functional impact of this variant have been conducted and published at the time of evaluation. The variant is present in the large control population dataset of ExAC at a frequency 1.649e-05 (2/121308 chrs tested), exclusively in individuals of South Asian descent (0.0001212; 2/ 16508) which does not exceed the maximal expected frequency of a pathogenic allele (0.00075) in this gene. The variant has not, to our knowledge, been reported in affected individuals via published reports and has been cited by one reputable clinical lab as a VUS. Taking together, the variant was classified as VUS.
Ambry Genetics RCV000580149 SCV001179106 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2024-11-11 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Y2839H variant (also known as c.8515T>C), located in coding exon 19 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 8515. The tyrosine at codon 2839 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant was observed in a study of 1010 unrelated Indian individuals diagnosed with breast and/or ovarian cancer (Singh J et al. Breast Cancer Res Treat, 2018 Jul;170:189-196). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear.
Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano RCV000586024 SCV004220611 uncertain significance not provided 2023-07-03 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing In the published literature, this variant has been reported in affected individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMIDs: 29470806 (2018) and 33471991 (2021)), however, it was also reported in healthy controls (PMIDs: 32467295 (2020) and 33471991 (2021)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00013 (4/30614 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.
