Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. Variant got -13 ACMG points: 0P and 13B. BP5_StrongBS3BP7_StrongBS1_Supporting

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.301+7G>A variant is an intronic variant occurring in intron 5 of the BRCA1 gene. The highest non-cancer, non-founder population filter allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1 (exomes only, non-cancer subset, read depth ≥20) or gnomAD v3.1 (non-cancer subset, read depth ≥20) is 0.00009711 in the European (non-Finnish) population which is within the ENIGMA BRCA1/2 VCEP threshold (>0.00002 to ≤ 0.0001) for BS1_Supporting (BS1_Supporting met). This BRCA1 intronic variant is located outside of the native donor and acceptor 1,2 splice sites, and the SpliceAI predictor score is 0.21, predicting an impact on splicing (score threshold >0.20) (however, this prediction is to strengthen the native acceptor site and therefore PP3 is not applied). This is an intronic variant, and mRNA experimental analysis indicates no impact on splicing (PMID:22505045), considered strong evidence against pathogenicity (BP7_Strong (RNA)). Reported by one calibrated study to exhibit protein function similar to benign control variants (PMID:30209399) (BS3 met). Multifactorial likelihood ratio analysis using clinically calibrated data produced a combined LR for this variant of 4.848E-11 (based on Cosegregation LR=1.36; Pathology LR=0.001; Co-occurrence LR=0.068; Family History LR=0.037; Case-Control LR=1.28E-05), below the threshold for Very strong benign evidence (LR <0.00285) (BP5_Very strong met; PMID:31131967).In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as a Benign variant for BRCA1-related cancer predisposition based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied as specified by the ENIGMA BRCA1/2 VCEP (BS1_Supporting, BP7_Strong (RNA), BS3, BP5_Very strong).

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]

Benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Jul 07, 2021	Variant summary: BRCA1 c.301+7G>A alters a non-conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. 4/4 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. At least two publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on splicing. These results showed no damaging effect of this variant (Steffensen_2014, Houdayer_2012). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 9.5e-05 in 251608 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in BRCA1 causing Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (9.5e-05 vs 0.001), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.301+7G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Breast and Ovarian Cancer (Konstantopoulou_2008, Ratajska_2014, Kluska_2015). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer. Six ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as benign (4x) and likely benign (2x). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -

The c.301+7G>A variant is an intronic variant occurring in intron 5 of the BRCA1 gene. The highest non-cancer, non-founder population filter allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1 (exomes only, non-cancer subset, read depth >=20) or gnomAD v3.1 (non-cancer subset, read depth >=20) is 0.00009711 in the European (non-Finnish) population which is within the ENIGMA BRCA1/2 VCEP threshold (>0.00002 to <= 0.0001) for BS1_Supporting (BS1_Supporting met). This BRCA1 intronic variant is located outside of the native donor and acceptor 1,2 splice sites, and the SpliceAI predictor score is 0.21, predicting an impact on splicing (score threshold >0.20) (however, this prediction is to strengthen the native acceptor site and therefore PP3 is not applied). This is an intronic variant, and mRNA experimental analysis indicates no impact on splicing (PMID: 22505045), considered strong evidence against pathogenicity (BP7_Strong (RNA)). Reported by one calibrated study to exhibit protein function similar to benign control variants (PMID: 30209399) (BS3 met). Multifactorial likelihood ratio analysis using clinically calibrated data produced a combined LR for this variant of 4.848E-11 (based on Cosegregation LR=1.36; Pathology LR=0.001; Co-occurrence LR=0.068; Family History LR=0.037; Case-Control LR=1.28E-05), below the threshold for Very strong benign evidence (LR <0.00285) (BP5_Very strong met; PMID: 31131967). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as a Benign variant for BRCA1-related cancer predisposition based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied as specified by the ENIGMA BRCA1/2 VCEP (BS1_Supporting, BP7_Strong (RNA), BS3, BP5_Very strong). -
