The NM_007294.4(BRCA1):c.5516T>C(p.Leu1839Ser) variant causes a missense change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★★).
BRCA1 (HGNC:1100): (BRCA1 DNA repair associated) This gene encodes a 190 kD nuclear phosphoprotein that plays a role in maintaining genomic stability, and it also acts as a tumor suppressor. The BRCA1 gene contains 22 exons spanning about 110 kb of DNA. The encoded protein combines with other tumor suppressors, DNA damage sensors, and signal transducers to form a large multi-subunit protein complex known as the BRCA1-associated genome surveillance complex (BASC). This gene product associates with RNA polymerase II, and through the C-terminal domain, also interacts with histone deacetylase complexes. This protein thus plays a role in transcription, DNA repair of double-stranded breaks, and recombination. Mutations in this gene are responsible for approximately 40% of inherited breast cancers and more than 80% of inherited breast and ovarian cancers. Alternative splicing plays a role in modulating the subcellular localization and physiological function of this gene. Many alternatively spliced transcript variants, some of which are disease-associated mutations, have been described for this gene, but the full-length natures of only some of these variants has been described. A related pseudogene, which is also located on chromosome 17, has been identified. [provided by RefSeq, May 2020]

The p.L1839S variant (also known as c.5516T>C), located in coding exon 22 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 5516. The leucine at codon 1839 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This alteration was identified in a cohort of German patients considered to be at increased risk for HBOC syndrome (Meisel C et al. Arch Gynecol Obstet, 2017 May;295:1227-1238). One functional study found that this nucleotide substitution is non-functional in a high-throughput, genome editing, haploid cell survival assay (Findlay GM et al. Nature, 2018 10;562:217-222). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -

This missense variant replaces leucine with serine at codon 1839 of the BRCA1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies have reported that this variant impacts BRCA1 function in a homology-directed DNA repair assay and in a haploid cell proliferation assay (PMID: 30209399, 35196514). This variant has been reported in one individual each affected with ovarian and breast cancer (PMID: 33078592, 33875706) and in a suspected hereditary breast and ovarian cancer family (PMID: 28324225). A multifactorial analysis has reported likelihood ratios for pathogenicity based on segregation and tumor pathology of 21.9613 and 51.8951, respectively (PMID: 31131967). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
