Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -1 ACMG points: 2P and 3B. PM2BP4_ModerateBP6
The NM_007294.4(BRCA1):c.2268G>T(p.Arg756Ser) 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 1,461,770 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). Another nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid substitution has been previously reported as Likely benign in Lovd. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R756G) has been classified as Likely benign.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1Benign:2
Missense variant in a coldspot region where missense variants are very unlikely to be pathogenic (PMID:31911673). -

The p.R756S variant (also known as c.2268G>T), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 2268. The arginine at codon 756 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This alteration was identified in multiple individuals with a personal and/or family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (Peixoto A et al. Fam Cancer, 2006 Jul;5:379-87; Zhong X et al. PLoS One, 2016 Jun;11:e0156789; Zhang Y et al. BMC Cancer, 2022 Aug;22:842). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species, and serine is the reference amino acid in other vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
not provided Uncertain:2
Observed in individuals with a personal or family history including breast cancer (Peixoto 2006, Zhong 2016); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek 2016); Also known as c.2387G>T; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 16826315, 30702160, 27257965, 24916970, 31825140) -
The BRCA1 c.2268G>T (p.Arg756Ser) variant has been reported in the published literature in several individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMIDs: 27257965 (2016), 32566972 (2020), 32803532 (2020), 35918668 (2022)). It has also been reported in affected individuals, but not in reportedly healthy individuals, in a large-scale breast cancer association study (PMID: 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/)). This variant was found with the BRCA2 c.1294del deleterious variant in an individual affected with breast cancer (PMID: 35864222 (2022)), suggesting that the BRCA1 c.2268G>T variant may not be the cause of disease. One functional study reported that this variant is functional in homology-directed DNA repair (PMID: 35196514 (2022)), however further research is necessary. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000004 (1/251210 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 756 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Arg756Ser). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hereditary breast, ovarian, and/or prostate cancer (PMID: 27257965, 30702160, 34326862, 35918668). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 224428). 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%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect BRCA1 function (PMID: 35196514). 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. -
