Targeted Gene Panel Sequencing Unveiled New Pathogenic Mutations in Patients With Breast Cancer.
The increasing commercialization of new gene panels based on next-generation sequencing for clinical research has significantly improved our understanding of breast cancer genetics and has led to the discovery of new mutation variants. The study included 16 unselected Moroccan breast cancer patients tested with multi-gene panel (HEVA screen panel) using Illumina Miseq, followed by Sanger sequencing to validate the most relevant mutation. Mutational analysis revealed the presence of 13 mutations (11 single-nucleotide polymorphisms [SNPs] and 2 indels), and 6 of 11 identified SNPs were predicted as pathogenic. One of the 6 pathogenic mutations was c.7874G>C, a heterozygous SNP in HD-OB domain of BRCA2 gene, which led to the arginine to threonine change at codon 2625 of the protein. This work describes the first case of a patient with breast cancer harboring this pathogenic variant and analyzes its functional impact using molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation. Further experimental investigations are needed to validate its pathogenicity and to verify its association with breast cancer.
