Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:3
This missense variant replaces glutamic acid with alanine at codon 262 of the BRIP1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with pancreatic cancer (PMID: 32659497). This variant has not been identified 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. -
The p.E262A variant (also known as c.785A>C), located in coding exon 6 of the BRIP1 gene, results from an A to C substitution at nucleotide position 785. The glutamic acid at codon 262 is replaced by alanine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This alteration has been identified in cohorts of patients with pancreatic cancer or other periampullary neoplasms tested for hereditary cancer risk via a multi-gene panel. (Shindo K et al. J Clin Oncol, 2017 Oct;35:3382-3390; Hu H et al. J Am Coll Surg, 2020 11;231:527-535.e14). 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. -

This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 262 of the BRIP1 protein (p.Glu262Ala). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with pancreatic cancer (PMID: 28767289). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 229938). 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) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on BRIP1 protein function. 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. -
