Description

This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 27 of the BRCA2 gene, creating a premature translation stop signal in the last coding exon. Functional studies in mouse embryonic stem cells have provided conflicting conclusions on variant impact on the protein function (PMID 18607349, 29988080). Although both studies indicated increased sensitivity to DNA damaging agents, the mutant protein was able to complement BRCA2-deficiency and showed only partially reduced homology-directed recombination activity. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with ovarian cancer (PMID: 18607349) and has been identified in 1 family 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). 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.

Description

The p.E3309* variant (also known as c.9925G>T), located in coding exon 26 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 9925. This changes the amino acid from a glutamic acid to a stop codon within coding exon 26. Premature stop codons are typically deleterious in nature; however, this stop codon occurs at the 3' terminus of BRCA2 and is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Functional studies have found conflicting evidence for this variant, with this variant being shown to cause hypersensitivity to DNA damaging agents (Kuznetsov SG et al. Nat. Med., 2008 Aug;14:875-81), but also demonstrated to maintain a high rate of homology directed repair efficiency (Mesman RLS et al. Genet. Med., 2019 02;21:293-302). Since supporting evidence is conflicting at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
