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.

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.E338K variant (also known as c.1012G>A), located in coding exon 7 of the BRIP1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1012. The glutamic acid at codon 338 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration was detected in a heterozygous state in 1/13,213 breast cancer cases and 0/5,242 controls from the United Kingdom (Easton DF et al. J. Med. Genet., 2016 05;53:298-309).This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 338 of the BRIP1 protein (p.Glu338Lys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of BRIP1-related conditions (PMID: 26921362, 37216690). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 461055). 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 expected to disrupt BRIP1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this missense change on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (Invitae). 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. -
