Description

The c.3744_3747delTGAG pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of 4 nucleotides at nucleotide positions 3744 to 3747, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.S1248Rfs*10). This alteration has been reported in multiple breast and/or ovarian cancer families (Foretova L et al. Hum. Mutat. 2004 Apr;23:397-8; Li WF et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2008 Jul;110:99-109; Jang JH et al. J. Hum. Genet. 2012 Mar;57:212-5; Song WH et al. J. Korean Med. Sci. 2017 Feb;32:377-381; Park B et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2017 May;163:139-150; Concolino P et al. Int J Mol Sci, 2019 Jul;20:; Bang YJ et al. Cancer Res Treat, 2021 Oct;:). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 3972_3975delTGAG and 3972del4 in published literature. In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.

Description

This variant deletes 4 nucleotides in exon 11 of the BRCA2 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been observed in over twenty individuals affected with breast cancer and is known to be a recurrent disease-causing mutation in the Korean population (PMID: 25863477, 26187060, 28205045, 34063308). This variant has been identified in 1/246600 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BRCA2 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.
