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]

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -

Variant summary: c.301+8T>C affects a non-conserved nucleotide, resulting in an intronic change. Mutation taster predicts benign outcome. The variant is located in a position not widely known to affect splicing and 5/5 splicing prediction programs suggest no effect on splicing. This variant was found in 17/121300 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0001401, predominantly observed in the African subpopulation of ExAC with observed MAF of 0.001252, which exceeds the maximal expected frequency of a pathogenic allele (0.0010005), suggesting that the variant might be a polymorphism found in population(s) of African origin. Although the variant has been reported in subjects from HBOC families, there is no cosegregation study to show whether the variant could have explained the phenotype. BIC cites variant in one individual who also carried a potentially pathogenic variant BRCA1 c.302-1G>A. In addition, multiple clinical laboratories classified this variant as benign. Considering all, this variant is classified as Likely Benign until more information becomes available. -
