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]

Class 1 based on posterior probability = 0.000864 -
Benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Myriad Genetics, Inc.	Jun 23, 2023	This variant is considered benign. This variant is strongly associated with less severe personal and family histories of cancer, typical for individuals without pathogenic variants in this gene [PMID: 25085752]. This variant been observed in trans with a known pathogenic variant in one or more individuals. Compound heterozygosity for pathogenic variants in this gene is generally assumed to result in embryonic lethality. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina	Apr 27, 2017	This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

The BRCA1 c.-19-3A>G variant was not identified in the literature but was identified 2X in the BIC database as a variant of unknown clinical importance. This variant is located in the 3’ splice region of the BRCA1 5' untranslated region but does not affect the invariant -1 and -2 positions. However, positions -3 and -5 to -12 are part of the splicing consensus sequence and variants involving these positions sometimes affect splicing. In-silico or computational prediction software (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) predicts a greater than 10% difference in splicing in 3 of 5 different programs, with the creation of a splice acceptor site 2 nucleotides upstream from the known splice acceptor site. The c.-19-3A>G variant is located in a region that may be involved in promoter or splicing activity, thus this variant may affect the binding of transcription factors and processing or expression of the BRCA1 mRNA transcript; however there is no supporting data for this claim. In summary, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. Therefore this variant is a variant of unknown significance. -
