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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoOct 04, 2022It has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). In the published literature, the variant has been reported in individuals with breast cancer (PMIDs: 34178674 (2021), 17221156 (2007)). 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. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesSep 08, 2023The BRCA1 c.2218G>C; p.Val740Leu variant (rs80357415) is reported in the literature in at least two individuals affected with breast cancer (Russo 2007, Fanale 2021). This variant is absent from the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. Computational analyses are uncertain whether this variant is neutral or deleterious (REVEL: 0.338). Due to limited information, the clinical significance of the p.Val740Leu variant is uncertain at this time. References: Fanale D et al.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2Benign:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 12, 2022The p.V740L variant (also known as c.2218G>C), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 2218. The valine at codon 740 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been reported in two breast or ovarian cancer patients undergoing genetic testing based on suspicion for HBOC (Russo A et al. Breast Cancer Res Treat, 2007 Nov;105:267-76; Fanale D et al. Front Oncol, 2021 Jun;11:682445). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthJun 15, 2023This missense variant replaces valine with leucine at codon 740 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 at least one individual affected with breast cancer (PMID: 17221156, 34178674). This variant has not been identified 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. -

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJun 16, 2023In 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. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA1 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 54505). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 17221156, 34178674). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 740 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Val740Leu). -
