Description

The p.N986Y variant (also known as c.2956A>T), located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from an A to T substitution at nucleotide position 2956. The asparagine at codon 986 is replaced by tyrosine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This variant was not reported in population based cohorts in the following databases: Database of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (dbSNP), NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), and 1000 Genomes Project. In the ESP, this variant was not observed in 6496 samples (12992 alleles) with coverage at this position. To date, this alteration has been detected with an allele frequency of approximately 0.0007% (greater than 300000 alleles tested) in our clinical cohort. 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 p.N986Y remains unclear.
