Description

The c.2812_2815delGCAA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of 4 nucleotides at nucleotide positions 2812 to 2815, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.A938Pfs*21). This mutation has been reported in a woman with early-onset breast cancer and in a man with breast cancer (Purnomosari D et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2007 Dec;106:297-304; Roed Nielsen H et al. Acta Oncol. 2016 Sep;55:38-44). Of note, this alteration is also designated as c.3040_3043delGCAA, c.3040_3043del4 and c.2812delGCAA in published literature. 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.
