Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -1 ACMG points: 0P and 1B. BP4
The NM_007294.4(BRCA1):āc.1096G>Cā(p.Asp366His) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000889 in 1,461,794 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).
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 p.D366H variant (also known as c.1096G>C), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 1096. The aspartic acid at codon 366 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant was observed in a study of 1010 unrelated Indian patients with breast and/or ovarian cancer (Singh J et al. Breast Cancer Res Treat, 2018 Jul;170:189-196). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

The missense variant c.1096G>C (p.Asp366His) in BRCA2 gene has been submitted to ClinVar as a Variant of Uncertain Significance, but no details are available for independent assessment. It has not been reported in affected individuals. The p.Asp366His variant is novel (not in any individuals) in gnomAD exomes and 1000 Genomes. The amino acid Asp at position 366 is changed to a His changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physicochemical properties. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Uncertain Significance (VUS). -

This missense variant replaces aspartic acid with histidine at codon 366 of the BRCA1 protein. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses are inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function. 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 not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. 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. -

This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 366 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Asp366His). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer and/or pancreatic cancer (PMID: 29470806, 32255556). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 489705). 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 with a negative predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect BRCA1 function (PMID: 32546644). In 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. -
