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 testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthNov 07, 2023This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 4 of the BRCA1 gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant is a common cause of breast and/or ovarian cancer in the Japanese population (PMID: 7627958, 24249303, 26187060, 26439132, 29348823). It has also been observed in affected individuals of non-Asian ancestry (PMID: 27741520, 29339979, 29907814). This variant has not been identified 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. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpOct 26, 2017Variant summary: The BRCA1 c.188T>A (p.Leu63X) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent BRCA1 protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant is considered a Japanese founder variant and has been reported in several individuals with personal and family history of HBOC, and was also shown to segregate with the disease (Inoue 1995, Nakamura 2013). This variant is absent in 245910 control chromosomes. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpMar 16, 2023This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 7627958, 15168169, 19016756, 24249303, 24884479, 25802882, 26187060, 26439132). It is commonly reported in individuals of Japanese ancestry (PMID: 7627958, 15168169, 19016756, 24249303, 24884479, 25802882, 26187060, 26439132). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu63*) 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 also known as a common cause of breast and/or ovarian cancer in the Japanese populations (PMID: 24249303, 26187060). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 54381). -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMay 11, 2017This variant is denoted BRCA1 c.188T>A at the cDNA level and p.Leu63Ter (L63X) at the protein level. The substitution creates a nonsense variant, which changes a Leucine to a premature stop codon (TTA>TAA), and is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This variant, also reported as 307T>A using alternate nomenclature, has been reported in individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer and is considered a Japanese pathogenic founder variant (Inoue 1995, Sekine 2001, Sugano 2008, Hirotsu 2015, Nakamura 2015). We consider BRCA1 Leu63Ter to be pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 22, 2024The p.L63* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.188T>A), located in coding exon 3 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a T to A substitution at nucleotide position 188. This changes the amino acid from a leucine to a stop codon within coding exon 3. This mutation has been reported in numerous studies of individuals with personal and/or family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer and is considered a founder mutation in the Japanese population (Inoue R et al. Cancer Res. 1995 Aug; 55(16):3521-4; Sekine M et al. Clin. Cancer Res. 2001 Oct; 7(10):3144-50; Kawahara M et al. J. Hum. Genet., 2004 May;49:391-5; Sugano K et al. Cancer Sci. 2008 Oct;99(10):1967-76; Hirotsu Y et al. Mol Genet Genomic Med, 2015 Mar;3:121-9; Nakamura S et al. Breast Cancer 2015 Sep;22:462-8; Hirasawa A et al. Oncotarget. 2017 Nov 28;8(68):112258-112267; Heramb C et al. Hered Cancer Clin Pract, 2018 Jan;16:3; Rebbeck TR et al. Hum. Mutat., 2018 05;39:593-620). Further, a functional study found that this nucleotide substitution is deleterious in a high throughput genome editing haploid cell survival assay (Findlay GM et al. Nature, 2018 10;562:217-222). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 307T>A 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. -
