Description

The p.Q2893* variant (also known as c.8677C>T), located in coding exon 20 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 8677. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 20. This mutation (designated as "Gln 2893 ter") was reported in a family from Japan with hereditary breast cancer (Katagiri T et al. J. Hum. Genet. 1998;43:42-8). This alteration was also identified in a large, worldwide study of BRCA1/2 mutation positive families (Rebbeck TR et al. Hum. Mutat. 2018 05;39:593-620). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.

Description

This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 21 of the BRCA2 gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in 1 individual affected with pancreatic cancer and 1 individual affected with breast cancer (PMID: 27271530, 31469826, 32816949). This variant has been reported in at least 1 family with multiple individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 24249303, 19806429, 9609997) and has been identified in 3 families among the CIMBA participants (PMID: 29446198). 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.
