Genes affected
BRIP1 (HGNC:20473): (BRCA1 interacting helicase 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the RecQ DEAH helicase family and interacts with the BRCT repeats of breast cancer, type 1 (BRCA1). The bound complex is important in the normal double-strand break repair function of breast cancer, type 1 (BRCA1). This gene may be a target of germline cancer-inducing mutations.

Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Observed in individuals with breast cancer (Easton et al., 2016); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 26921362)

This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 1169 of the BRIP1 protein (p.Asp1169Glu). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 26921362). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 220245). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRIP1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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.

The p.D1169E variant (also known as c.3507C>A), located in coding exon 19 of the BRIP1 gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 3507. The aspartic acid at codon 1169 is replaced by glutamic acid, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant was detected in 2/123213 breast cancer cases and 0/5242 controls from the UK (Easton DF et al. J. Med. Genet. 2016 May;53:298-309). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
