Description

The c.5351dupA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a duplication of A at nucleotide position 5351, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.N1784Kfs*3). This mutation has been reported in multiple families with breast and/or ovarian cancer (Verhoog LC et al. J. Clin. Oncol. 1999 Nov;17:3396-402; Peelen T et al. Br. J. Cancer. 2000 Jan;82:151-6; Spitzer E et al. Int. J. Cancer. 2000 Feb;85:474-81; van der Hout AH et al. Hum. Mutat. 2006 Jul;27:654-66; Stegel V et al. BMC Med. Genet. 2011 Jan;12:9; Walsh T et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 2011 Nov;108:18032-7; Kang E et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2015 May;151:157-68; Jakimovska M et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2018 Apr;168:745-753), and has been described as a Dutch founder mutation based on haplotype analysis (Neuhausen SL et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 1998 Jun;62:1381-8; Janaviius R. EPMA J. 2010 Sep;1:397-412). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 5579insA and 5573insA 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 inserts 1 nucleotide in exon 11 of the BRCA2 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is also known as 5579insA and 5573insA in the literature. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been observed in multiple individuals and families affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 9585613, 10638982, 11597388, 21232165, 22006311, 25863477, 29084914, 29335924) and is reported as a founder mutation in the Netherlands (PMID: 9585613, 11597388). 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.
