Description

The c.8175delG pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 17 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 8175, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.W2725Cfs*8). This alteration was identified in 2 of 66 African American women undergoing genetic testing based on a personal and/or family history of breast, ovarian, and/or other gynecologic cancer (Barrington DA et al. Gynecol Oncol, 2018 May;149:337-340). This variant was also observed in an individual with early onset-breast cancer amongst a cohort of 1781 non-Ashkenazi Jewish individuals undergoing BRCA1/2 gene testing based on a personal history of breast cancer (Tung N et al. Cancer, 2015 Jan;121:25-33). Of note, this alteration is also known as 8403delG in published literature. This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). 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.
