The NM_007294.4(BRCA1):c.203T>G(p.Ile68Arg) variant causes a missense change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic 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]

Variant summary: BRCA1 c.203T>G (p.Ile68Arg) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 250382 control chromosomes. c.203T>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. At least one functional study reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function and showed a damaging effect of this variant on homology directed repair (HDR) activity (e.g. Findlay_2018). HDR assays qualify as a recognized gold standard on the basis of updated guidance provided by the ClinGen Sequence Variant Interpretation (SVI) working group. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 30209399, 26727311, 30219179, 25823446). Two submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

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. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change impacts the function of the BRCA1 protein as measured by its E3 ligase activity in vitro (PMID: 25823446), This variant has been reported in an individual in the Breast Cancer Information Core database (PMID: 10923033). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 54445). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces isoleucine with arginine at codon 68 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Ile68Arg). The isoleucine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between isoleucine and arginine. -
