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
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 07, 2022The p.Q554E variant (also known as c.1660C>G), located in coding exon 11 of the BRIP1 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 1660. The glutamine at codon 554 is replaced by glutamic acid, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration was reported in two HBOC families; one of these families reportedly had co-occurrence with a likely pathogenic variant in BRCA1 (Li J et al. J. Med. Genet.2016 Jan;53(1):34-42). This amino acid position is 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. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthJun 13, 2022This missense variant replaces glutamine with glutamic acid at codon 554 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 been reported in an individual affected with breast cancer (PMID: 26534844) and in two families at high risk of breast or ovarian cancer in the literature (PMID: 26921362). One of these families also carried a pathogenic variant in the BRCA1 gene (PMID: 26921362). This variant has been identified in 3/282724 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. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpOct 06, 2021Variant summary: BRIP1 c.1660C>G (p.Gln554Glu) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 251322 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.1660C>G has been reported in the literature in individuals/families affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (e.g. Easton_2016, Li_2016, Dorling_2021) but it was also reported in unaffected controls (Dorling_2021). In one affected family, a co-occurring pathogenic variant was detected (BRCA1 c.547+1G>T; Li_2016). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Four ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Familial cancer of breast;C1836860:Fanconi anemia complementation group J Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 24, 2024This sequence change replaces glutamine, which is neutral and polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 554 of the BRIP1 protein (p.Gln554Glu). This variant is present in population databases (rs777217004, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 26534844). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 233173). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRIP1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -
