Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PM2
The NM_007294.4(BRCA1):c.985A>T(p.Asn329Tyr) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000131 in 152,250 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. 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. N329S) has been classified as Likely benign.

not provided Uncertain:3
Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek 2016); Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect; Also known as BRCA1 1104A>T -

The p.Asn329Tyr variant has not been reported in the literature nor previously identified by our laboratory. This residue is not highly conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen2, SIFT, AlignGVGD) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein and this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. It should be noted that BRCA1 variants are inherited in an autosomal dominant manner with reduced penetrance and that the expression of the disease can be influenced by other modifier genes and environmental factors. The significance of a variant should always be interpreted in the context of the individual's clinical manifestations. In addition, genetic counseling is recommended and testing of additional family members may help to understand the significance of this variant. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2Benign:1
Missense variant in a coldspot region where missense variants are very unlikely to be pathogenic (PMID:31911673). -
The c.985A>T (p.N329Y) alteration is located in exon 10 (coding exon 9) of the BRCA1 gene. This alteration results from a A to T substitution at nucleotide position 985, causing the asparagine (N) at amino acid position 329 to be replaced by a tyrosine (Y). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
This missense variant replaces asparagine with tyrosine at codon 329 of the BRCA1 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with BRCA1-related disorders in the literature. This variant has been reported in 2 individuals age 70 years or older without cancer in the FLOSSIES database (https://whi.color.com/variant/17-41246563-T-A). This variant has been identified in 1/31408 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. -

Breast-ovarian cancer, familial, susceptibility to, 1 Uncertain:1
This missense variant replaces asparagine with tyrosine at codon 329 of the BRCA1 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with BRCA1-related disorders in the literature. This variant has been reported in 2 individuals age 70 years or older without cancer in the FLOSSIES database (https://whi.color.com/variant/17-41246563-T-A).

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. -
Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 329 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Asn329Tyr). This variant is present in population databases (rs786203732, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRCA1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 187436). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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. -
