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]

BRCA1 (HGNC:):

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 1 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a domain BRCT 1 (size 94) in uniprot entity BRCA1_HUMAN there are 74 pathogenic changes around while only 17 benign (81%) in NM_007294.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	Mar 06, 2018	This variant is denoted BRCA1 c.4935G>C at the cDNA level, p.Arg1645Ser (R1645S) at the protein level, and results in the change of an Arginine to a Serine (AGG>AGC). This variant, also known as BRCA1 c.5054G>C by alternate nomenclature, has been observed in individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer (Pal 2005, Haffty 2009, Ruiz 2014, Nakamura 2015). BRCA1 Arg1645Ser was not observed in large population cohorts (Lek 2016). Since Arginine and Serine differ in some properties, this is considered a semi-conservative amino acid substitution. BRCA1 Arg1645Ser is located in the BRCT1 domain and a region known to interact with multiple other proteins (Paul 2014). In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports that this variant does not alter protein structure/function. Based on currently available information, it is unclear whether BRCA1 Arg1645Ser is pathogenic or benign. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Benign:2

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	May 28, 2021	This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

The BRCA1 p.Arg1645Ser variant was identified in 3 of 1332 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.002) from individuals or families with Ovarian and Breast cancers (Haffty 2009, Pal 2005, Ruiz 2014). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs80357373 “With Uncertain significance allele”. This variant was not identified in the Exome Variant Server project and Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC-released March 14, 2016) databases. The p.Arg1645Ser variant was identified in the Clinvar database and was classified as variant of uncertain significance by Ambry Genetics, GeneDx and BIC; Invitae did not provide a classification. The BIC database identified the variant 1X with unknown clinical importance. The p.Arg1645 residue is not conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein. However, this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. The variant amino acid Serine (Ser) is present in African clawed frog, increasing the likelihood that this variant does not have clinical significance. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -
