Variant 17-43070931-TTCTTCTGGGGTCAGGCCAG-T details in Genebe, Genetics Data Aggregator

Genes affected

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]

This variant is considered a founder mutation in Southern Italy [PMID 11462242]. This 19 bp deletion in exon 15 results in a frameshift and the creation of a premature stop codon. This variant is thus predicted to result in a loss of function of the protein. This variant has not been detected in the ExAC database . This variant thus classified as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Mar 01, 2021	Variant summary: BRCA1 c.4964_4982del19 (p.Ser1655TyrfsX16) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant was absent in 250074 control chromosomes. c.4964_4982del19 has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (example, Rebbeck_2018). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Thirteen clinical diagnostic laboratories, one expert panel (ENIGMA) and one consortium (CIMBA) have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome

Pathogenic:2

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Mar 12, 2019	The c.4964_4982del19 pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 14 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a deletion of 19 nucleotides between nucleotide positions 4964 and 4982, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.S1655Yfs*16). This alteration has been reported in multiple families with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) syndrome and has also been established as a founder mutation of Southern Italian origin (Couch FJ et al. N. Engl. J. Med. 1997 May;336:1409-15; Baudi F et al. Hum. Mutat. 2001 Aug;18:163-4; JanaviÃ„Âius R. EPMA J. 2010 Sep;1:397-412; Russo A et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2009 Jan;113:67-70; Finch A et al. Clin. Genet. 2016 Mar;89:304-11). This alteration was identified in 1/10030 consecutive patients referred for evaluation by an NGS hereditary cancer panel (Susswein LR et al. Genet. Med. 2016 08;18:823-32). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 5083del19 in published literature. 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. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	Feb 28, 2023	This variant deletes 19 nucleotides in exon 15 of the BRCA1 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in at least ten individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 11462242, 16847550, 17221156, 18159056, 22711857, 26681312) and in several dozens of suspected hereditary breast and ovarian cancer families (PMID: 9145677, 11938448, 26219728, 29446198). A haplotype analysis has indicated that this is a recurrent mutation and a possible founder mutation in Italy (PMID: 18228134). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BRCA1 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

The BRCA1 c.4964_4982del19; p.Ser1655fs variant (rs80359876), also known as 5083del19, is reported in the literature in multiple individuals and families affected with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (Couch 1997, Finch 2016, Giannini 2006, John 2007), and is considered a founder mutation in Italy (Baudi 2001, Mucaki 2016, Nedelcu 2002, Russo 2007, Russo 2009). This variant is reported as pathogenic by multiple laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID: 37616), and is absent from general population databases (1000 Genomes Project, Exome Variant Server, and Genome Aggregation Database), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant causes a frameshift by deleting 19 nucleotides, so it is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. Functional analyses of the variant protein show a truncated protein product and major changes to the transcriptional profile of cells with the variant (Quaresima 2008). Based on available information, the c.4964_4982del19 variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Baudi F et al.

The p.Ser1655TyrfsX16 variant has been identified in 5 of 574 proband chromosomes (frequency 0.009) in individuals with breast and ovarian cancer (Couch 1997, Baudi 2001). In addition, this variant is identified in the BIC database 46 times and indicated as a clinically important variant and in the UMD database 7 times as "causal". The p.Ser1655Tyrfsx16 variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein's amino acid sequence beginning at codon 1655 and leads to a premature stop codon 16 codons downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein and loss of function. Loss of function of the BRCA1 gene is an established disease mechanism in familial breast and ovarian cancer syndromes. In summary, based on the information above, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
