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.N1236S variant (also known as c.3707A>G), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 3707. The asparagine at codon 1236 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration was detected in 1/135 Japanese individuals diagnosed with breast and/or ovarian cancer (Hirotsu Y et al. Mol Genet Genomic Med, 2015 Mar;3:121-9). This alteration was observed with an allele frequency of 0.00014 in 7,051 unselected female breast cancer patients and was observed with an allele frequency of 0.00044 in 11,241 female controls of Japanese ancestry. In addition, it was not observed in unselected male breast cancer patients and was observed with an allele frequency of 0.0004 in 12,490 male controls of Japanese ancestry (Momozawa Y et al. Nat Commun, 2018 10;9:4083). This alteration has been reported with a carrier frequency of 0.00039 in 7636 unselected prostate cancer patients and 0.0004 in 12366 male controls of Japanese ancestry (Momozawa Y et al. J Natl Cancer Inst, 2020 04;112:369-376). This variant has been identified in 4/12503 unselected Japanese colorectal cancer patients and in 10/23705 controls (Fujita M et al. Clin Gastroenterol Hepatol, 2022 09;20:2132-2141.e9).This amino acid position is poorly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The BRCA1 p.N1236S variant was identified in 3 individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer (Nakagomi_2018_PMID: 29215753; Hirotsu_2015_PMID: 25802882). The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs863224760) and ClinVar (classified as likely benign by GeneDx and as uncertain significance by Ambry Genetics and Invitae). The variant was not identified in the following control databases: the 1000 Genomes Project, the NHLBI GO Exome Sequencing Project, or the Genome Aggregation Database (March 6, 2019, v2.1.1). The p.N1236 residue is conserved in mammals however computational analyses (MUT Assesor, SIFT, MutationTaster, Revel, FATHMM, MetaLR, DANN) 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 (Splice AI exome) 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. -

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

This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1236 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Asn1236Ser). 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. 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. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 216665). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 25802882, 29215753, 30287823, 32546644). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). -

GeneDx
Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -
