Description

This variant is denoted BRCA2 c.8941G>A at the cDNA level, p.Glu2981Lys (E2981K) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Glutamic Acid to a Lysine (GAA>AAA). Using alternate nomenclature, this variant would be defined as BRCA2 9169G>A. This variant has been observed in individuals diagnosed with early-onset and/or familial breast cancer, ovarian cancer, and early-onset or familial prostate cancer (Hansen 2011, Maier 2014, Caminsky 2016). BRCA2 Glu2981Lys was not observed at a significant allele frequency in large population cohorts (Lek 2016). This variant is located in the DNA Binding Domain (Yang 2002). In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports that this variant does not alter protein structure/function. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether BRCA2 Glu2981Lys is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance.
