The NM_007294.4(BRCA1):āc.1259A>Gā(p.Asp420Gly) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000142 in 1,614,088 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. D420Y) has been classified as Benign.
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]

The BRCA1 c.1259A>G; p.Asp420Gly variant (rs730881442) is reported in the literature in an individual affected with breast cancer, although its clinical significance was considered uncertain (Chen 2020). This variant is found on a single chromosome in the Genome Aggregation Database (1/250816 alleles), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. The aspartate at codon 420 is highly conserved, but computational analyses are uncertain whether this variant is neutral or deleterious (REVEL: 0.586). Due to limited information, the clinical significance of the p.Asp420Gly variant is uncertain at this time. References: Chen Q et al. BRCA1 Deficiency Impairs Mitophagy and Promotes Inflammasome Activation and Mammary Tumor Metastasis. Adv Sci (Weinh). 2020 Feb 14;7(6):1903616. PMID: 32195105. -

The p.D420G variant (also known as c.1259A>G), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1259. The aspartic acid at codon 420 is replaced by glycine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant has been identified in an individual diagnosed with breast and/or ovarian cancer (Santonocito C et al. Cancers (Basel), 2020 May;12:). This variant was present in 2/1005 Japanese pancreatic cancer patients and in 0/23705 controls (Mizukami K et al. EBioMedicine, 2020 Oct;60:103033). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

This missense variant replaces aspartic acid with glycine at codon 420 of the BRCA1 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with early onset breast cancer (doi: 10.5505/aot.2021.25348). This variant has been identified in 1/250816 chromosomes 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. -

Variant summary: BRCA1 c.1259A>G (p.Asp420Gly) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the BRCA1, serine-rich domain of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 250816 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.1259A>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with breast cancer (example, Laitman_2011, Chen_2020). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Seven clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
