The NM_007294.4(BRCA1):c.4255G>C(p.Glu1419Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000041 in 1,461,862 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 13/21 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Benign (★★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. E1419E) has been classified as Likely benign.
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.Glu1419Gln variant has been identified in 2/114310 proband chromosomes of individuals with breast cancer and/or ovarian cancer; although, no control chromosomes were tested to establish the variant's frequency in the general population (Caux-Moncoutier 2011, Judkins 2005a, Lindor 2011, Millot 2012). The variant is listed in dbSNP database (ID#:rs80357309) as coming from a "clinical source" but no frequency information was provided, and so the prevalence of this variant in the population is not known. The p.Glu1419 residue is conserved in mammals, but computational analyses (PolyPhen, SIFT, AlignGVGD) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein. However, this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. In addition, this variant is listed in the BIC (x1) database, as well as in the UMD mutation database to co-occur with a pathogenic mutation in BRCA2 c.3744_3747delTGAG (p.Ser1248ArgfsX10), increasing the likelihood that p.Glu1419Gln is benign. In summary, based on the above information, the p.Arg3370Arg variant is classified as predicted benign. -

Variant summary: The BRCA1 c.4255G>C (p.Glu1419Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. 2/4 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant (SNPs&GO not captured due to low reliability index). This variant is absent in 121396 control chromosomes. However, multiple publications cite the variant with a classification of "likely neutral." In addition, multiple reputable databases/clinical laboratories cite the variant with a classification of "benign/likely benign/uncertain significance." In addition, a poster abstract (IUBMB 2015) cites a functional study that showed the variant to act comparable to wild type functions for transcriptional activation ability and PALB2 interaction. One recent functional study (Woods_2016) showed preserved transcriptional activity and no deleterious effects on the BRCA1-PALB2 protein-protein interaction in the presence of this variant. Taken together, this variant is classified as likely benign. -

This alteration is classified as 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. -
