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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGenetics and Molecular Pathology, SA PathologyMay 25, 2022The BRCA1 c.2071del variant is classified as Pathogenic (PVS1, PS4_Moderate, PM2) BRCA1:c.2071del is a deletion of a single nucleotide in exon 11 predicted to encode a frame-shift in translation of the mature mRNA with consequent premature termination of protein synthesis at codon 10 of the frame-shift, or 701 (BRCA1 p.(Arg691AspfsTer10):) using NP_009225.1. This is expected to result in disrupted or absent protein product due to nonsense mediated decay (NMD). If NMD is escaped, this variant is expected to encode a truncated protein. Variants of this type are widely accepted to be pathogenic (Tayoun et al., 2018 PMID:30192042). BRCA1:c.2071del (rs80357688) is absent in population databases (gnomAD) and is not on record in FLOSSIES. BRCA1:c.2071del (also described as BRCA1 2190delA using legacy nomenclature) has been reported in multiple unrelated individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer (Zhang et al., 2011 PMID: 21324516, Cunningham et al., 2014 PMID: 24504028, Ow et al., 2019 PMID: 30875412, George et al., 2021 PMID: 33646313). BRCA1:c.2071del is on record in ClinVar (Variation ID: CD982486) reported by multiple clinical laboratories as pathogenic in association with Hereditary breast and ovarian cancer. This variant is listed in HGMD as ‘disease causing mutation’ in association with Breast cancer (Accession: CD982486). -

Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The BRCA1 p.Arg691AspfsX10 deletion variant was identified in 7 of 9116 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.001) from individuals or families with breast, ovarian, or prostate cancer (Castro 2013, Gayther 1999, Jongsma 2002, Risch 2001, Kurian 2008, Zhang 2011). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs80357688) “With pathogenic allele”, HGMD, UMD (1X as a causal variant), and the BIC database (24X with clinical importance). The p.Arg691AspfsX10 deletion variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein's amino acid sequence beginning at codon 691 and leads to a premature stop codon 10 codons downstream. This alteration is then predicted to result in a truncated or absent protein and loss of function. Loss of function variants of the BRCA1 gene are an established mechanism of disease in hereditary breast and ovarian cancer and is the type of variant expected to cause the disorder. In summary, based on the above information, this variant meets our laboratory’s criteria to be classified as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 24, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg691Aspfs*10) 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 family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 9482581, 9667259, 10486320, 21324516, 24504028). This variant is also known as 2190delA. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37444). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 11, 2017Variant summary: The BRCA1 c.2071delA (p.Arg691Aspfs) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent BRCA1 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 (e.g. c.2138C>G, p.Ser713X; c.2157dupA, p.Glu720fs). One in silico tool predicts a damaging outcome for this variant. The variant of interest is absent in a large, broad control population, ExAC in 121338 control chromosomes. This variant was reported in multiple patients with HBOC (Judkins_2005, Trujillano_2014, Peto_1999, Frank_1998, Risch_2001, Zhang_2011). In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

This mutation has been observed in multiple breast and/or ovarian cancer families (Andersen TI et al. Hum. Mutat. 1998;11:166-74; Frank TS et al. J Clin Oncol, 1998 Jul;16:2417-25; Peto J et al. J.

Clin. Oncol. 2013 May;31:1748-57). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 2190delA and 2187delA in the literature. This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In addition to the clinical data presented in the 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. -
