Description

Although this frameshift variant occurs in the terminal exon of BRCA2 and is not expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay, the variant removes the last 197 residues of the BRCA2 protein including a region functionally important for interaction with the RAD51 protein and is involved in recombination-mediated DNA repair (PMID: 17515903 (2007)). This variant has been reported in multiple individuals and families with breast/ovarian cancer (PMID: 32885271 (2021), 29053726 (2017), 21913181 (2012), 11897832 (2002), 11179017 (2001)). This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic.

Description

The BRCA2 c.9666delT; p.Cys3222fs variant (rs80359772) is reported in the literature in multiple individuals with a personal and/or family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (Hamann 2002, Harter 2017, Risch 2001). This variant is found on a single chromosome in the Genome Aggregation Database (1/248958 alleles), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant causes a frameshift by deleting a single nucleotide in the last exon of the BRCA2 gene. While this may not lead to nonsense-mediated decay, it is expected to create a truncated protein lacking the last 197 residues of the wildtype protein. Further, other truncating variants downstream of c.9666delT are reported in individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer and are considered disease-causing (Dodova 2015, van der Hout 2006). Based on available information, the c.9666delT variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Dodova RI et al.

Description

Frameshift variant predicted to result in protein truncation in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Truncating variants in this gene are considered pathogenic by a well-established clinical consortium and/or database; Also known as 9894del; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 11179017, 29446198, 21913181, 11897832, 11802209, 17148771, 21324516, 32885271, 30720243, 28888541, 31567591, 29922827, 17026620, 18593900, 18607349, 26295337, 29053726, 22711857)
