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]

Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (e.g. p.Gln60X, p.Tyr101X, p.Glu143X, etc.). This variant is absent in 120930 control chromosomes from ExAC. The variant is a recurrent pathogenic variant found in several HBOC patients/families and in individuals undergoing BRCA1/2 testing. In addition, several clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases have classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. - |

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:3
| Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Jun 21, 2021 | The c.66dupA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 1 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a duplication of one nucleotide at position 66, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.E23Rfs*18). This mutation has been described in numerous breast and ovarian cancer patients and families (Couch FJ and Weber BL. Hum. Mutat. 1996;8:8-18; Rashid MU et al. Int. J. Cancer. 2006 Dec;119:2832–39; Kang E et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2015 May;151:157-68; Bujassoum SM et al. J. Cancer Sci. Ther. 2017;9(2):358-64). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 185insA 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. - |

This variant has been reported in at least 10 Individuals affected with breast and ovarian cancer and in a breast cancer case-control meta-analysis in 3 cases and 1 unaffected individual (PMID: 8595420, 11606101, 12181777, 18627636, 20189727, 20950396, 27257965, 28993434, 29152070, 29470806, 33471991, 35918668; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA1_001098), and in suspected hereditary breast and ovarian cancer families (PMID: 10952777, 16683254, 16998791, 21559243, 24916970, 25863477, 29176636, 29339979, 29907814). This variant also has been reported in an individual affected with melanoma (PMID: 29433453). 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. - |

This variant is alternatively referred to as 185insA. This variant has been reported in many individuals and families with breast and/or ovarian cancer (Matsushima et al. 1995. PubMed ID: 8595420; Couch et al. 1996. PubMed ID: 8807330; Liede et al. 2002. PubMed ID: 12181777; Rashid et al. 2006. PubMed ID: 16998791; Noël et al. 2010.

PubMed ID: 30702160). It has also been reported in a male individual with melanoma (Ibrahim et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29433453). This variant has not been reported in a large population database, indicating this variant is rare. In ClinVar, this variant is interpreted as pathogenic (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/37691/). Frameshift variants in BRCA1 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. - |
