Description

The p.Ile3259MetfsX16 variant in BRCA2 has not been previously reported in individuals with BRCA2-associated cancers or in large population studies. This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 3259 and leads to a premature termination codon 16 amino acids downstream. This termination codon occurs within the last exon and is more likely to escape nonsense mediated decay (NMD), resulting in a truncated protein. However, loss of function variants 3' to this variant have been reported in patients with hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer (HBOC) and have been classified as pathogenic by an expert panel in ClinVar. In summary the p.Ile3259MetfsX16 variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for HBOC in an autosomal dominant manner, based upon predicted impact to the protein and absence from the general population. ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PSV1_Strong, PM2.

Description

This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts a region of the BRCA2 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Tyr3308*) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 17026620, 18593900, 18607349, 22711857). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 667416). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRCA2-related conditions. This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ile3259Metfs*16) in the BRCA2 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 160 amino acid(s) of the BRCA2 protein.
