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 Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 3.5, offset of 1, new splice context is: atatggtaatttcttataAGgac. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 17-61784425-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-61784425-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 481627.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Baylor Genetics	Jul 31, 2022	- -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Sep 07, 2018	Variant summary: BRIP1 c.1474-1G>A is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Three predict the variant abolishes a 5' splicing donor site and also introduces a cryptic 5' donor site 1bp into the exon, which is predicted to lead to a frameshift and truncated or absent protein. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant was absent in 246022 control chromosomes (gnomAD). To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.1474-1G>A in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and both classified the variant as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Myriad Genetics, Inc.	Feb 27, 2023	This variant is considered likely pathogenic. This variant occurs within a consensus splice junction and is predicted to result in abnormal mRNA splicing of either an out-of-frame exon or an in-frame exon necessary for protein stability and/or normal function. -

This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 10 of the BRIP1 gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). 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: 481627). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in skipping of exon 11 and introduces a premature termination codon (Invitae). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The c.1474-1G>A intronic variant results from a G to A substitution one nucleotide upstream from coding exon 10 of the BRIP1 gene. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice acceptor site; however, direct evidence is insufficient at this time (Ambry internal data). Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as likely pathogenic. -
