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]

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:curation

The p.Ile15Leu variant in BRCA1 has been reported in 3 Iranian individual with breast cancer, 1 Algerian individual with breast or ovarian cancer, 1 individual with pancreatic cancer, and 1 individual in a genetic testing cohort (PMID: 21918854, 22684231, 27449771, 15235020), and has been identified in 0.01148% (1/8712) of African chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs80357031). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a dominant frequency for a disease also present in the general population. Please note that for diseases with clinical variability, or reduced penetrance, pathogenic variants may be present at a low frequency in the general population. This variant has also been reported as a VUS and a likely benign variant in ClinVar (Variation ID: 55192). In vitro functional studies provide some evidence that the p.Ile15Leu variant may not impact protein function (PMID: 16403807). However, these types of assays may not accurately represent biological function. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. The Isoleucine (Ile) at position 15 is not highly conserved in mammals and evolutionary distant species, and 47 species carry a Leucine (Leu), raising the possibility at this position may be tolerated. Two additional variants, resulting in a different amino acid change at the same position, p.Ile15Thr and p.Ile15Leu, have been reported as a VUS in association with disease in ClinVar (Variation ID: 55217, 55192). In summary, while there is some suspicion for a pathogenic role, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM2, PS4_Supporting, BS3_Supporting (Richards 2015). -
