The NM_001407966.1(BRCA1):c.-134G>A variant causes a 5 prime UTR premature start codon gain change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000959 in 1,459,806 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]

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. -

Variant summary: BRCA1 c.755G>A (p.Arg252His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in 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 8e-06 in 249320 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.755G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancers without strong evidence for causality (e.g. Santonocito_2020, deOliveria_2022). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. Co-occurrences with other pathogenic variants have also been reported (BRCA1 c.547+2T>A (BIC database; BRCA2 c..7180A>T, p..Arg2394X (deOliveria_2022)), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function (Bouwman_2020). These results showed no damaging effect of this variant on ability to complement BRCA1-deficient mouse embryonic stem cells in homologous recombination DNA repair (HRR) using cisplatin and olaparib sensitivity assays and a direct GFP HRR assay. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 18273839, 32546644, 32438681, 35534704). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 55689). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -
