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, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoMay 01, 2023This frameshift variant alters the translational reading frame of the BRCA1 mRNA and causes the premature termination of BRCA1 protein synthesis. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.0000071 (2/282168 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is consistent with pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in individuals with breast cancer (PMID: 33646313 (2021), 32341426 (2020), 31331294 (2019), 30262796 (2018)) and ovarian cancer (PMID: 30322717 (2018)). In addition, this variant has been reported as a founder mutation of African origin (PMID: 10417303 (1999), 21120943 (2011), 22762150 (2012)). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesJan 13, 2022The BRCA1 c.815_824dup; p.Thr276AlafsTer14 variant (rs387906563) is reported in multiple individuals affected with breast and ovarian cancer (Mefford 1999, Stoppa-Lyonnet 1997, Walsh 2011, Zayas-Villanueva 2019). This variant is also reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 55723), and is classified as pathogenic by the evidence-based network for the interpretation of germline mutant alleles (ENIGMA) expert panel (see link to ENIGMA consortium classification criteria). This variant is absent from the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant causes a frameshift by inserting 10 nucleotides, so it is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic.

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:3Other:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 27, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Thr276Alafs*14) 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 (rs387906563, gnomAD 0.004%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 9150149, 10417303, 26681312, 28503720). This variant is also known as 926ins10, ter289, and 943ins10. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 55723). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineDec 13, 2023The p.Thr276AlafsX14 variant in BRCA1 has been reported in multiple individuals with BRCA1-associated cancers bnand is believed to be a founder variant of African origin (Stoppa-Lyonnet 1997 PMID: 9150149, Mefford 1999 PMID: 10417303, Walsh 2011 PMID: 22006311, Buleje 2017 PMID: 28944232). This variant has also been reported by other clinical laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID 55723) and has been identified in 0.01% (4/41360) of African or African American chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org, v.3.1.2). This frequency is low enough to be consistent with the frequency of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) in the general population. This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 276 and leads to a premature termination codon 14 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Heterozygous loss of function of the BRCA1 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal dominant HBOC. In the compound heterozygous or homozygous state, these variants are associated with autosomal recessive Fanconi anemia. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant HBOC. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PS4_Moderate, PM2_Supporting. -

Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (e.g.c.843_846delCTCA/p.Ser282fs). One in silico tool predicts a damaging outcome for this variant. This variant is absent in 121190 control chromosomes. It has been reported in multiple affected individuals and multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:3
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsOct 29, 2018The c.815_824dup10 pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a duplication of AGCCATGTGG at nucleotide position 815, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.T276Afs*14). This pathogenic mutation has been reported in numerous hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) syndrome families, and it has been established as a founder mutation of African origin (Stoppa-Lyonnet D et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 1997 May;60:1021-30; Mefford HC et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 1999 Aug;65:575-8; Panguluri RC et al. Hum. Genet. 1999 Jul-Aug;105:28-31; Pal T et al. Cancer Epidemiol. Biomarkers Prev. 2004 Nov;13:1794-9; Ferla R et al. Ann. Oncol. 2007 Jun;18 Suppl 6:vi93-8; Zhang J et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2012 Jul;134:889-94; Jara L et al. Biol. Res. 2017 Oct;50:35). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 943ins10 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 HealthOct 01, 2023This variant inserts 10 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 has been reported in at least fifteen individuals and over two dozen families affected with breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 9150149, 10417303, 15533909, 19241424, 20838878, 21120943, 22006311, 21913181, 22739995, 26681312, 28503720, 28944232, 30322717, 32025337, 32341426, 33646313, 34413315) and prostate cancer (PMID: 32832836). Haplotype analysis suggests that this variant may be founder mutation originating from West African (PMID: 10417303, 32025337). This variant has been identified in 2/282168 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. -
