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.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Feb 28, 2023
Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces arginine with glutamine at codon 798 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 performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with ovarian cancer and chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (PMID: 36338706). This variant has been identified in 2/247106 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. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.R798Q variant (also known as c.2393G>A), located in coding exon 16 of the BRIP1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 2393. The arginine at codon 798 is replaced by glutamine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: BRIP1 c.2393G>A (p.Arg798Gln) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the ATP-dependent helicase, C-terminal domain (IPR006555) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.1e-06 in 247106 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.2393G>A in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, and all laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 798 of the BRIP1 protein (p.Arg798Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs375082407, gnomAD 0.005%). 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: 142949). 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. -
