The NM_007294.4(BRCA1):āc.3409A>Gā(p.Met1137Val) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000137 in 1,461,476 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 14/21 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars).
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: The BRCA1 c.3409A>G (p.Met1137Val) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. 3/4 in silico tools predict a benign outcome (SNPs&GO not captured due to low reliability index). Met1137 is not located in any known functional domain of the Breast cancer type 1 susceptibility protein and is not highly conserved across species. This variant was found in 1/121210 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000083, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic BRCA1 variant (0.0010005). The variant of interest has not, to our knowledge, been reported in affected individuals via publications nor evaluated for functional impact by in vivo/vitro studies. One database classified the variant as a VUS. In the absence of clinical information and functional studies, the variant was classified as a variant of uncertain significance (VUS) until additional information becomes available. -

The p.M1137V variant (also known as c.3409A>G), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 3409. The methionine at codon 1137 is replaced by valine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration was classified as likely benign by a multifactorial analysis incorporating co-occurrence, personal and family history, and tumor characteristic data (Lee JS et al. J. Med. Genet., 2018 Dec;55:794-802). This alteration has been identified in 1/157 Brazilian individuals with personal and/or family history of breast cancer who were tested with a multi-gene panel (de Souza Timoteo AR et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat., 2018 Dec;172:637-646). This amino acid position is poorly 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. -

This missense variant replaces methionine with valine at codon 1137 of the BRCA1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 28364669) and an individual with a personal or family history of breast cancer (PMID: 30159786). This variant also has been detected in a breast cancer case-control meta-analysis in 0/60466 cases and 3/53461 unaffected individuals (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA1_002540). A multifactorial analysis has reported likelihood ratios for pathogenicity, including 0.013 and 13.316 for co-occurrence with a pathogenic co-variant and tumor pathology, respectively (PMID: 30415210). This variant has been identified in 2/250962 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
