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]

This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 10 of the BRCA1 gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in several individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 17925560, 19805903, 20104584, 21614564, 22034289, 30350268) and in other suspected hereditary breast and ovarian cancer families (PMID: 16030099, 18465347, 23233716, 29446198, 31209999). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BRCA1 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser955*) in the BRCA1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BRCA1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with personal or family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 16030099, 19805903, 20104584, 26187060, 29339979, 29446198). This variant is also known as 2983C>A. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 54701). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: BRCA1 c.2864C>A (p.Ser955X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant was absent in 251560 control chromosomes. c.2864C>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer (including Borg_2010, Fackenthal_2012, Heramb_2018, Litton_2011, Thomassen_2008, Vaidyanathan_2009, Vogel_2007, Weitzel_2005). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Eight clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

The p.S955* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.2864C>A), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 2864. This changes the amino acid from a serine to a stop codon within coding exon 9. This alteration has been identified in numerous breast/ovarian cohorts from North American, European, Hispanic, African, and Indian families (Weitzel JN et al. Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev. 2005;14(7):1666-71; Vogel KJ et al. J. Clin. Oncol., 2007 Oct;25:4635-41; Vaidyanathan, K et al. J Biosci. 2009 Sep;34(3):415-22; Borg A et al. Hum. Mutat., 2010 Mar;31:E1200-40; Kwong A et al. J Med Genet, 2016 Jan;53:15-23; Heramb C et al. Hered Cancer Clin Pract, 2018 Jan;16:3; Rebbeck TR et al. Hum. Mutat., 2018 May;39:593-620; Ryu JM et al. Breast Cancer Res Treat, 2019 Jan;173:385-395). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 2983C>A in the published literature. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
