Description

This variant causes a G to T nucleotide substitution at the +5 position of intron 17 of the BRCA2 gene. This variant is also known as IVS17+5G>T in the literature. Functional RNA studies have shown that this variant causes in-frame skipping of exon 17 (PMID: 29969168, 31191615) resulting in a non-functional protein (PMID: 15695382, 18451181). This variant has been reported in 5 individuals who were affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer from 3 families (PMID: 29969168). 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.7976+5G>T intronic variant results from a G to T substitution 5 nucleotides after coding exon 16 in the BRCA2 gene. This variant segregated with breast cancer in three families (Montalban G et al. Hum. Mutat., 2018 Sep;39:1155-1160; Ambry internal data), and RNA analyses on several probands demonstrated that it results in skipping of coding exon 16 (also referred to as exon 17), which is located in a domain that is important for protein function (Ambry internal data; Montalban G et al. Hum. Mutat., 2018 Sep;39:1155-1160). This nucleotide position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic.
