Description

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity.

Description

This missense variant replaces arginine with cysteine at codon 2896 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). An experimental functional study has shown that cells expressing this variant are not sensitive to PARP inhibitors or carboplatin in a cell viability assay, indicating the variant impact is neutral (PMID: 32444794). This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with BRCA2-related cancer in the literature. This variant has been identified in 5/251298 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
