The NM_007294.4(BRCA1):c.5363G>A(p.Gly1788Asp) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000137 in 1,461,874 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. G1788V) has been classified 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]
Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points.
PM1
?
PM1 - Located in a mutational hot spot and/or critical and well-established functional domain (e.g., active site of an enzyme) without benign variation
In a hotspot region, there are 6 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 7 benign, 17 uncertain in NM_007294.4
PM2
?
PM2 - Absent from controls (or at extremely low frequency if recessive) in Exome Sequencing Project, 1000 Genomes Project, or Exome Aggregation Consortium
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PM5
?
PM5 - Novel missense change at an amino acid residue where a different missense change determined to be pathogenic has been seen before
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr17-43049164-C-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 37660.Status of the report is reviewed_by_expert_panel, 3 stars.

To our knowledge this variant has only been seen alone once, in a male control in gnomAD (South Asian population). Clinical evidence in Goldgar et al 2004 (PMID: 15290653) is not applicable unless this variant is observed in cis with c.5359T>A (Variation ID 55548). We recommend that if c.5363G>A is detected in an individual, presence of c.5359T>A should be assessed. Functional assay data analysis of the c.5363G>A variant suggests that it is unlikely to alter protein function alone, but that it does alter function when in combination with BRCA1 c.5359T>A (PMID: 30765603; 30209399). For more information see the haplotype entry BRCA1 c.[5359T>A;5363G>A] (Variant ID 624568). -

This missense variant replaces glycine with aspartic acid at codon 1788 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 reported this variant as normal compared to wild-type control in transcription activation, haploid cell proliferation, protein stability and peptide binding assays (PMID: 20516115, 21447777, 30209399). This variant has been reported in cis with BRCA1 p.Cys1887Ser in several individuals and families affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 16030099, 18284688, 23233716, 25628955 , 26543556, 28959512). This variant has been observed in cis with BRCA1 p.Cys1787Ser and cosegregated with disease (PMID: 15290653, 25628955). A multifactorial analysis reported a likelihood ratio for pathogenicity based on case-control data of 0.04567 (PMID: 31131967). Other missense variants this codon (ClinVar variation ID: 37660, 55550, 531438) and codon 1787 (ClinVar variation ID: 662455) are considered likely disease-causing, suggesting that glycine or similar amino acid at this codon is important for the protein function. This variant has been identified in 1/251442 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

The p.G1788D variant (also known as c.5363G>A), located in coding exon 20 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 5363. The glycine at codon 1788 is replaced by aspartic acid, an amino acid with similar properties. One functional study found that this nucleotide substitution is functional in a high-throughput, genome editing, haploid cell survival assay (Findlay GM et al. Nature, 2018 10;562:217-222). Conversely, this variant had 25.03% of wildtype activity in a transcription activation assay (Woods NT et al. NPJ Genom Med, 2016 Mar;1:). Based on internal structural assessment G1788 alterations are expected to cause general structural disruption of the BRCT domain (Clapperton JA et al. Nat Struct Mol Biol, 2004 Jun;11:512-8). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is conflicting at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
