Description

The c.5722_5723delCT pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of two nucleotides at nucleotide positions 5722 to 5723, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.L1908Rfs*2). This mutation has been reported in multiple hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) syndrome cohorts, including individuals with male breast cancer, pancreatic cancer and prostate cancer (Wooster R et al. Nature. 1995 Dec;378:789-92; Edwards SM et al. Br. J. Cancer. 2010 Sep;103:918-24; Cherbal F et al. Dis Markers, 2010;28:377-84; Ding YC et al. Breast Cancer Res.

Sci Rep, 2021 07;11:14906). Of note, this mutation is also designated as 5950delCT and c.5718_5719del 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.

Description

This variant deletes 2 nucleotides in exon 11 of the BRCA2 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is also known as 5950delCT, 5946delCT and 5950-5951delCT in the literature. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in at least 12 individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 8665505, 14647210, 19353265, 20683152, 21324516, 24010542, 25136594, 26026974, 27553291, 28724667, 29470806, 30287823, 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_001607) and five individuals affected with pancreatic cancer (PMID: 24963353, 25940717) or prostate cancer (PMID: 20736950, 31214711). This variant also has been reported in families suspected of being affected with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 8524414, 11802209, 15340362, 16234499, 25863477). This variant has been identified in 1/250888 chromosomes 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.
