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]

Myriad Genetics, Inc.
Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant is considered benign. This variant is strongly associated with less severe personal and family histories of cancer, typical for individuals without pathogenic variants in this gene [PMID: 25085752]. This variant been observed in trans with a known pathogenic variant in one or more individuals. Compound heterozygosity for pathogenic variants in this gene is generally assumed to result in embryonic lethality. -

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

This missense variant replaces valine with leucine at codon 1116 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 cancer (PMID: 15726418). This variant has been identified in 6/281642 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. -

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

The BRCA1 c.3346G>C (p.Val1116Leu) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.016% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). The in silico tool REVEL predicts a benign effect on protein function, but to our knowledge this prediction has not been confirmed by functional studies. This variant has been reported in at least one individual with breast cancer (PMID: 15726418). In addition, one individual with this variant was reported in a database of women older than 70 years of age who have never had cancer (FLOSSIES, https://whi.color.com/). In summary, the evidence currently available is insufficient to determine the clinical significance of this variant. It has therefore been classified as of uncertain significance. -

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

This alteration is classified as likely 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. -

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

The BRCA1 c.3346G>C (p.Val1116Leu) variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMIDs: 15726418 (2005), 16267036 (2005)). This variant has also been reported to be located in a region of the BRCA1 gene that is tolerant to missense changes (PMID: 31911673 (2020)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00016 (4/24796 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Variant summary: The BRCA1 c.3346G>C (p.Val1116Leu) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. 4/4 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant (SNPsandGO not captured due to low reliability index). This variant was found in 6/276252 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000217, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic BRCA1 variant (0.0010005). The variant has been reported in affected individuals in the literature (Judkins 2005, McKean-Cowdin 2005), but without strong evidence for causality. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as uncertain significance. Taken together, this variant is classified as VUS. -

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

The BRCA1 c.3346G>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Val1116Leu. This variant was reported in an individual with breast and/or ovarian cancer (Figure 1 in McKean-Cowdin et al. 2005. PubMed ID: 15726418). This variant is reported in 0.016% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/17-41244202-C-G) and has conflicting interpretations in ClinVar regarding its pathogenicity, ranging from uncertain significance to likely benign (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/54853/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

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

This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1116 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Val1116Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs55909400, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 15726418). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 54853). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -
