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]

Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpSep 26, 2019Variant summary: BRCA1 c.2522G>A (p.Arg841Gln) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.2e-05 in 283280 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in BRCA1 causing Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer (4.2e-05 vs 0.001), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. The variant, c.2522G>A, has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with breast cancer and/or ovarian cancer (Barker_1996, Borg_2010, Judkins_2005, Schoumacher_2001, Brianese_2018, Zuntini_2018). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer. Co-occurrences with other pathogenic variants have been reported (BRCA1 c.2126insA, [p.Phe709TyrfsX3; BRCA2 c.7069_7070delCT , p.Leu2357ValfsX2; BRCA1 c.5152+2T>G), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. Additionally, one publication reports the variant present in a breast cancer patient, but absent in her affected mother, while both patients had a different pathogenic BRCA1 mutation, suggesting lack of segregation of the variant with disease (Zuntini_2018). Two publications have conducted functional studies: one used minigene splicing assays (Anczukow_2008) and one used functional complementation assays in cultured mouse embryonic stem cells (Bouwman_2013), both of which showed no significant effect on function caused by the variant. Six 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 benign/likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -
Malignant tumor of breast Benign:1
Likely benign, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The BRCA1 p.Arg841Gln variant was identified in 2 of 4282 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.0004) from individuals or families with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (Borg 2010, Schoumacher 2001). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs80357337) “With other allele”, Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC) database, HGMD 3X, the ClinVar database 5X with conflicting classifications (classified as benign (SCRP and Ambry Genetics), likely benign (GeneDx), and uncertain significance (BIC - 6X); UMD reported the variant (10X as a likely neutral variant) and the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC) database in 5 of 66708 (European (Non-Finnish)) alleles (frequency: 0.00007495), although this low number of observations and low frequency is not substantive enough to determine the prevalence of the variant in the general population and its relationship to disease. In UMD the variant was identified with two co-occurring pathogenic variants, a BRCA1 variant p.Phe709TyrfsX3, and a BRCA2 variant p.Leu2357ValfsX2 increasing the likelihood that the p.Arg841Gln variant does not have clinical significance. The p.Arg841 residue is not conserved in mammals and the variant amino acid Glutamine (Gln) is present in orangutans, macaques, mice, dogs, cows, frogs and sea urchins, increasing the likelihood that this variant does not have clinical significance. Computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein. In addition, functional studies based on the physiologic expression of the full length BRCA1 cDNA in mice (Bouwman 2013) and in silico studies (Capanu 2011) showed the variant to be neutral. One in 5 splicing software suggested that this variant may create an alternative 3' splice site (human splicing finder), but this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. Lastly, Myriad classifies this variant as a polymorphism (personal communication). In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant could not be determined with absolute certainty although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant meets our laboratory's criteria to be classified as likely benign. -
