Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -1 ACMG points: 2P and 3B. PM2 BP4_Moderate BP6

The NM_032043.3(BRIP1):​c.1972C>A​(p.Arg658=) variant causes a synonymous change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. R658R) has been classified as Likely benign.

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.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -1 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.34).
• BP6: Variant 17-61776526-G-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr17-61776526-G-T is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 481624.We mark this variant Likely_benign, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_benign=3, Uncertain_significance=1}.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Benign:2

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Oct 14, 2015	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. -

Variant summary: BRIP1 c.1972C>A alters a conserved nucleotide resulting in a synonymous change. Several computational tools (via Alamut) predict that the variant could impact normal splicing: Four predict the variant strengthens a cryptic exonic 5' donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. Another in-silico tool for assessing the pathogenicity of synonymous variants, namely TraP (Transcript-inferred Pathogenicity, Gelfman_2017) predicts that this variant is Benign. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant was absent in 251344 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.1972C>A in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer and no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function have been reported. Two other clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 (without evidence for independent evaluation) and classified the variant as likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS- possibly benign. -
