Description

The c.67+1G>T intronic variant results from a G to T substitution one nucleotide after exon 2 (coding exon 1) of the BRCA2 gene. Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This mutation has been reported in multiple German individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer (Meyer, 2003; Rebbeck, 2018). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. This alteration, as well as several close match alterations at this donor site have been shown by multiple assays to result in skipping of exon 2 (coding exon 1) with resulting predicted loss of the translational start codon (Houdayer, 2012; Parsons, 2015; Feben, 2017; Fraile-Bethencourt, 2019; Ambry internal data). In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic.

Description

This variant causes a G to T nucleotide substitution at the +1 position of intron 2 of the BRCA2 gene. Functional RNA studies have shown that this variant causes skipping of exon 2, expected to result in the loss of the initiator methionine. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 25342642, 31706072, doi.org/10.1515/tjb-2019-0424). This variant has not been identified 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.
