Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1Benign:3

- -
This alteration is classified as likely 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. -

not provided Uncertain:2
The BRCA1 c.995G>A (p.Arg332Gln) variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 16826315 (2006), 25337278 (2014), 24916970 (2015), 28176296 (2017), 30093976 (2018), 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (https://databases.lovd.nl/shared/variants/BRCA1), 35264596 (2022), 35534704 (2022)). This variant has also been found in reportedly healthy individuals (PMID: 32467295 (2020), 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (https://databases.lovd.nl/shared/variants/BRCA1)). In addition, this variant has been described to be of little clinical significance in an evolutionary conservation analysis (PMID: 15235020 (2004)), shown to result in no splicing aberrations (PMID: 18273839 (2008), 23893897 (2013)), and is reported as neutral in a homologous recombination repair assay (PMID: 32546644 (2020)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000087 (3/34586 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded conflicting predictions that this variant is deleterious or benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
Observed in individuals with breast, ovarian, and other cancers, but also in unaffected controls (PMID: 36775216, 35534704, 16826315, 25337278, 24916970, 28176296, 30093976, 29684080, 32467295, 33471991); Published functional studies suggest no impact on homologous recombination repair activity (PMID: 32546644); In silico analysis indicates that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Also known as 1114G>A; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 24916970, 25337278, 15385441, 16267036, 15235020, 30093976, 29684080, 28176296, 31131967, 33471991, 32467295, 16826315, 37002680, 36775216, 11521194, 9582019, 9926942, 15343273, 20215511, 35534704, 34981296, 35264596, 32546644) -
BRCA1-related disorder Uncertain:1
The BRCA1 c.995G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg332Gln. This variant was reported as likely neutral or of little clinical significance (Abkevich et al. 2004. PubMed ID: 15235020). This variant was also reported in two breast cancer patients, but no further information was provided (Sun et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 25337278). In the gnomAD public population database this variant has been reported in up to 0.016 % of alleles in a subpopulation and has conflicting interpretations regarding its pathogenicity in ClinVar, ranging from likely benign to a variant of uncertain significance (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/55776/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
not specified Benign:1
Variant summary: BRCA1 c.995G>A (p.Arg332Gln) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of four in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.6e-05 in 251440 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.995G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Breast and/or Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (e.g. Judkins_2005, Peixoto_2006, Sun_2014, Shi_2017, Chan_2018). In a large study evaluating breast cancer cases and controls in the Breast Cancer Association Consortium (BCAC), the variant was reported in 3/60466 cases, but was also in 1/53461 controls (Dorling_2021 through LOVD). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function (Bouwman_2020). These results showed no damaging effect of this variant in its ability to complement Brca1-deficient mouse embryonic stem cells in homologous recombination DNA repair (HRR), using cisplatin and olaparib sensitivity assays and a direct repeat GFP (DR-GFP) HRR assay. HDR assays qualify as a recognized gold standard on the basis of updated guidance provided by the ClinGen Sequence Variant Interpretation (SVI) working group. This working group has recommended strong functional evidence (ACMG BS3) as sufficient weightage for categorization as likely benign (Tavtigian_2018). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 15385441, 15235020, 12531920, 24916970, 18273839, 32546644, 30093976, 16267036, 16826315, 28176296, 25337278, 24951259, 33471991). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 55776). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
