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]

The p.Q1518E variant (also known as c.4552C>G), located in coding exon 13 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 4552. The glutamine at codon 1518 is replaced by glutamic acid, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

The missense variant NM_007294.4(BRCA1):c.4552C>G (p.Gln1518Glu) has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. The p.Gln1518Glu variant is novel (not in any individuals) in gnomAD. There is a small physicochemical difference between glutamine and glutamic acid, which is not likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues share similar properties. The gene BRCA1 has a low rate of benign missense variation as indicated by a high missense variants Z-Score of 2.32. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Uncertain Significance -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces glutamine, which is neutral and polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 1518 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Gln1518Glu). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with a personal and/or family history of breast cancer (PMID: 26845104). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 219563). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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. -
