Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points: 0P and 2B. BP4_Moderate
The NM_032043.3(BRIP1):c.2994G>C(p.Lys998Asn) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000547 in 1,461,458 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 17/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. K998R) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2Benign:1
- -
This missense variant replaces lysine with asparagine at codon 998 of the BRIP1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has been identified in 1/250982 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
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. -
Familial cancer of breast;C1836860:Fanconi anemia complementation group J Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 998 of the BRIP1 protein (p.Lys998Asn). This variant is present in population databases (rs757225144, gnomAD 0.0009%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRIP1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 229897). 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. -
not provided Uncertain:1
This variant is denoted BRIP1 c.2994G>C at the cDNA level, p.Lys998Asn (K998N) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Lysine to an Asparagine (AAG>AAC). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. BRIP1 Lys998Asn was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Since Lysine and Asparagine differ in some properties, this is considered a semi-conservative amino acid substitution. BRIP1 Lys998Asn occurs at a position that is not conserved and is located within the region responsible for interacting with BRCA1 (UniProt). In silico analyses predict that this variant is unlikely to alter protein structure or function. Based on currently available information, it is unclear whether BRIP1 Lys998Asn is pathogenic or benign. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -
