The ENST00000357654.9(BRCA1):c.5200T>A(p.Phe1734Ile) 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 Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. F1734C) has been classified as Likely 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.F1734I pathogenic mutation (also known as c.5200T>A), located in coding exon 18 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a T to A substitution at nucleotide position 5200. The phenylalanine at codon 1734 is replaced by isoleucine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. 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). Based on internal structural analysis, F1734I decreases the structure stability (Wu Q et al. Mol Cell, 2016 Feb;61:434-448). Another alteration at the same codon, p.F1734L (c.5202T>G), has been also been found to be non-functional in a high-throughput, genome editing, haploid cell survival assay (Findlay GM et al. Nature, 2018 10;562:217-222) and based on internal structural analysis, F1734L decreases the structure stability (Wu Q et al. Mol Cell, 2016 Feb;61:434-448). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

This missense variant replaces phenylalanine with isoleucine at codon 1734 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 detected in one individual each affected with ovarian and breast cancer (PMID: 32776218; Color internal data). 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. -

It has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). In the published literature, the variant has been reported in an affected individual with ovarian cancer (PMID: 32776218 (2020)). A saturation genome editing assay found this variant to be non-functional in homology-directed DNA repair (PMID: 30209399 (2018)). Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded conflicting predictions that this variant is deleterious or benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects BRCA1 function (PMID: 30209399). Advanced modeling performed at Invitae incorporating data from internal and/or published experimental studies (PMID: 30209399) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt BRCA1 function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 232047). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with ovarian cancer (PMID: 32776218). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1734 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Phe1734Ile). -
