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]

Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:curation

Each variant was annotated with functional scores from MAVE data which was translated into functional evidence codes. All other evidence codes and combining criteria were adhered to as closely as possible based on the ClinGen VCEP (Variant Curation Expert Panel) gene-specific recommendations. See Supplemental Figure 34 of final paper (Supp Fig. 28 in preprint: doi:10.1101/2024.04.11.24305690) for a table to see which lines of evidence we did not have data for. The ClinGen VCEPs are highly regarded as the gold-standard for gene-specific variant curation and are developed after extensive evaluation of the evidence by clinical and scientific experts for the particular gene to classify genomic variants on a spectrum from pathogenic to benign using the 2015 ACMG/AMP Variant Interpretation Guidelines as a backbone (PMID: 25741868). Reclassification of these VUS variants from gnomAD or All of Us focused only on variants originally prescribed as VUS in ClinVar. To ensure reproducibility, transparency, and increased throughput, all the procedures for annotating variants and assigning evidence codes were codified using Python. All code has been made freely available and is linked in the Code Availability section and all reclassified variants with evidence codes used can be found in Tables S18-19 (preprint: doi:10.1101/2024.04.11.24305690). For the MAVE data, the clinical curation and clinical strength assignment as per the ClinGen recommendations in Brnich et al. (2020) (PMID: 31892348) for or against pathogenicity or benignity of each of these MAVE datasets utilized in this study were previously published in Fayer et al. (2021) (PMID: 34793697).In brief, for BRCA1 variants, if a variant was categorized as FUNC (functional), it was assigned BS3 evidence and no PS3 evidence, whereas if it was categorized as LOF (loss of function), the variant was assigned PS3 evidence and no BS3 evidence. Variants categorized as INT (intermediate) were left unannotated. For the BRCA1 combining criteria, greater than or equal to 1 criteria of strong benign evidence was enough to reclassify the VUS as Likely Benign. This variant GRCh38:17:43071011:C>T was assigned evidence codes ['BS3', 'BP1_Strong'] and an overall classification of Benign -

The BRCA1 c.4903G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Glu1635Lys. This variant was observed in a patient with ovarian cancer (Table 1. Carney ME et al 2010. PubMed ID: 21218378). This variant was also reported in a patient with polyps who had a family history of pancreas cancer, colorectum, other GI cancer, polyps, and melanoma. This individual also carried MSH6, PTEN, and BMPR1A variants (Table. S4 Bhai et al 2021. PubMed ID: 34326862). Functional studies have shown that this variant does not disrupt the function of BRCA1 (Johnston JJ et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22703879). This variant is reported in 0.00088% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD and has conflicting classifications of pathogenicity in ClinVar ranging from likely benign to uncertain significance (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/41829/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Uncertain:1

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 1635 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Glu1635Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs200432771, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with ovarian cancer (PMID: 21218378). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 41829). Advanced modeling performed at Invitae incorporating data from internal and/or published experimental studies (PMID: 30209399) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA1 function with a negative predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect BRCA1 function (PMID: 30209399). 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. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

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. -
