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]

Variant summary: BRCA1 c.4361T>C (p.Val1454Ala) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 250884 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.4361T>C has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (e.g., Minucci_2015, Dorling_2021, Germani_2018, Santonocito_2020) however without strong evidence for causality (e.g., lack of co-segregation data). These reports therefore do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. At least one co-occurrence with another pathogenic variant has been observed at our laboratory (BRCA2 c.6468_6469delTC, p.Q2157fs*18; internal testing), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 33471991, 30263092, 26306726, 32438681). Six ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) have cited the variant, with 5 submitters classifying the variant as uncertain significance and one submitter classifying the variant as likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

The p.V1454A variant (also known as c.4361T>C), located in coding exon 12 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 4361. The valine at codon 1454 is replaced by alanine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration has been identified in individuals diagnosed with breast and/or ovarian cancer (Minucci A et al. Expert Rev. Mol. Diagn., 2015 Aug;15:1383-403; Germani A et al. Oncotarget, 2018 Sep;9:33648-33655; Santonocito C et al. Cancers (Basel), 2020 May;12:). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; In-silico analysis is inconclusive as to whether the variant alters gene splicing. In the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown.; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Observed in individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer (Minucci 2015, Germani 2018, Santonocito 2020); Also known as 4480T>C; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 15343273, 22737296, 26306726, 30263092, 32438681) -

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1454 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Val1454Ala). This variant is present in population databases (rs587782606, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with a personal and/or family history of breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 26306726, 30263092, 32438681). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 142639). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae 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. -
