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, LabCorpNov 24, 2020Variant summary: BRCA1 c.1789G>A (p.Glu597Lys) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.3e-05 in 252224 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in BRCA1 causing Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (8.3e-05 vs 0.001), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1789G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (example, Judkins_2005, Lee_2008, Easton_2007, Borg_2010, Capanu_2011, Spearman_2008, Alsop_2012, Lu_2012, Maxwell_2014, Zhang_2015). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. Multifactorial probability models predict a neutral outcome (Lindor_2012). At-least one co-occurrence with another pathogenic variant has been reported in the BIC database (BRCA2 c.6373_6374insA, p.Thr2125?fs), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories and one expert panel (ENIGMA) have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All submitters classified the variant as benign/likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxFeb 18, 2018This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Benign:3
Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsNov 18, 2014This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

Malignant tumor of breast Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The BRCA1 p.Glu597Lys variant was identified in 7 of 7414 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.0009) from individuals or families with breast cancer (Goidescu 2017, Momozawa 2018, Johnston 2012, Borg 2010, Lee 2008) and was identified in 6 of 48666 chromosomes (frequency: 0) from healthy individuals. In silico prediction models looking at causality likelihood ratios and posterior probability suggest the variant is neutral/not pathogenic (Easton 2007, Lindor 2012). The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs55650082) “With Pathogenic, other allele”, ClinVar (classified benign, reviewed by an expert panel (2015); submitters: benign by ENIGMA, Ambry Genetics; likely benign by Color, Integrated Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, Invitae, GeneDx, SCRP and Pathway Genomics; uncertain significance by BIC and Biesecker Lab/Human Development Section (NIH)), LOVD 3.0 (1x), BIC Database (16X with unknown clinical importance, pending classification) and ARUP Laboratories (classified as 1 - not pathogenic or of no clinical significance). The variant was not identified in UMD-LSDB database. The variant was also identified in control databases in 22 of 276862 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00008 increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017), observed in the following populations: African in 3 of 23996 chromosomes (freq: 0.0001), European Non-Finnish in 18 of 126494 chromosomes (freq: 0.0001), and South Asian in 1 of 30778 chromosomes (freq: 0.00003) while not observed in the Other, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian and European Finnish populations. The p.Glu597 residue is not conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein; this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -
