Description

This variant causes a G to A nucleotide substitution at the +1 position of intron 15 of the BRCA2 gene. RNA studies have shown that this variant causes skipping of exon 15, resulting in premature truncation (PMID: 11389159, 21184276, 24123850, 31191615). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast/ovarian cancer (PMID: 11389159, 20927582, 21184276, 24123850, 26187060, 26360800, 26833046) or pancreatic cancer (PMID: 12097290, 17301269). 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.

Description

The c.7617+1G>A intronic pathogenic mutation results from a G to A substitution one nucleotide after coding exon 14 of the BRCA2 gene. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. This alteration has been described as a Danish founder pathogenic mutation and it segregates strongly with disease in many Danish families (Thomassen M et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat., 2011 Jul;128:179-85; de Juan Jiménez I et al. Fam. Cancer, 2013 Dec;12:767-77; Roed Nielsen H et al. Acta Oncol, 2016 Sep;55:38-44; Nielsen HR et al. Fam. Cancer, 2016 Oct;15:507-12 ). In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. RNA analyses using patient RNA and minigene assays have shown this alteration results in complete loss of exon 15 (Ambry internal data; Bergthorsson JT et al. J. Med. Genet., 2001 Jun;38:361-8; Gutiérrez-Enríquez S et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat., 2009 Sep;117:461-5; Thomassen M et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat., 2011 Jul;128:179-85; Fraile-Bethencourt E et al. Front Genet, 2019 May;10:503; de Garibay GR et al. Hum Mutat, 2014 Jan;35:53-7). Of note, this alteration is also designated as IVS15+1G>A and 7845+1G>A in published literature. In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, 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. As such, this alteration is classified as a disease-causing mutation.
