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, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The BRCA1 p.Ser454X variant was identified in at least 5 of 112950 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.00004) from individuals or families with hereditary breast or ovarian cancer (Judkins 2005, Ottini 2000, Risch 2001, van Orsouw 1999). The variant was also previously identified by our laboratory in 1 individual with breast and ovarian cancer. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs80357969) “With Pathogenic allele”, and the BIC database (19X as Pathogenic). The p.Ser454X variant leads to a premature stop codon at position 454, which is predicted to lead to 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 19, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser454*) 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 present in population databases (rs80357969, gnomAD 0.002%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 10528853, 22874498, 26219728, 26681312). This variant is also known as 1479delAG. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37406). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The variant of interest was observed in the large, broad control population, ExAC, with an allele frequency of 2/121340 (1/60670), which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic BRCA1 variant of 1/1000. The variant of interest was reported in multiple affected individuals via publications. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/databases cite the variant as "pathogenic." Therefore, the variant of interest has been classified as "Pathogenic." -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 16, 2022The c.1360_1361delAG pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a deletion of two nucleotides at nucleotide positions 1360 to 1361, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.S454*). This alteration has been reported in several unrelated individuals diagnosed with breast and/or ovarian cancer (van Orsouw NJ et al. J. Med. Genet. 1999 Oct;36(10):747-53; Ottini L et al. Breast Cancer Res. 2000 Mar;2(4):307-10; Risch HA et al. J. Natl. Cancer Inst. 2006 Dec 6;98(23):1694-706; Ozcelik H et al. J. Mol. Diagn. 2012 Sep;14(5):467-75; Azzollini J et al. Eur. J. Intern. Med. 2016 Jul;32:65-71; Plaskocinska I et al. J. Med. Genet. 2016 Oct;53(10):655-61; Heramb C et al. Hered. Cancer Clin. Pract. 2018 Jan;16:3). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 1479delAG in published literature. 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. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthNov 07, 2022This variant deletes 2 nucleotides in exon 10 of the BRCA1 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant is also known as 1479delAG based on Breast Cancer Information Core (BIC) nomenclature. This variant has been reported in over twenty individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer, and in high-risk breast and ovarian cancer families (PMID: 10528853, 11056688, 11938448, 17148771, 21324516, 22874498, 26219728, 26681312, 27208206, 32245699, 32438681, 33403015, 33471991). This variant has been identified in 29 families among the CIMBA participants (PMID: 29446198) (https://cimba.ccge.medschl.cam.ac.uk/). This variant has been identified in 2/251004 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BRCA1 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
