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]

Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: BRCA1 c.3776A>C (p.Asn1259Thr) 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 3.3e-05 in 245960 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in BRCA1 causing Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer (3.3e-05 vs 1.00e-03), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.3776A>C in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. One laboratory classified the variant as benign and the other laboratory classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

The BRCA1 p.Asn1259Thr variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in the COGR, Cosmic, MutDB, LOVD 3.0, UMD-LSDB, ARUP Laboratories, or Zhejiang University databases. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs483353090) as "With Uncertain significance allele", ClinVar (classified as benign by Invitae; as uncertain significance by GeneDx and two other submiters), and in BIC (1x with unknown significance) databases. The variant was identified in control databases in 8 of 245960 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00003 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the South Asian population in 8 of 30782 chromosomes (freq: 0.0003), while the variant was not observed in the African, Other, Latino, European, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, or Finnish populations. The p.Asn1259 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 occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. 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. -
