Ambry Genetics RCV001018111 SCV001179298 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2018-06-18 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.N2879K variant (also known as c.8637C>A), located in coding exon 20 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 8637. The asparagine at codon 2879 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV003645136 SCV004436184 uncertain significance Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2023-01-26 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing 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. This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 2879 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Asn2879Lys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRCA2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 822619). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA2 protein function.
