Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PM1
The NM_032043.3(BRIP1):c.518G>A(p.Arg173His) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000062 in 1,613,592 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R173C) has been classified as Benign.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
This missense variant replaces arginine with histidine at codon 173 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 not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has been identified in 6/251316 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. -
The p.R173H variant (also known as c.518G>A), located in coding exon 5 of the BRIP1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 518. The arginine at codon 173 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. In one study, this alteration was observed in 0/706 cases with ovarian cancer, 0/6,341 cases with breast cancer and in 1/36,687 controls (Weber-Lassalle N et al. Breast Cancer Res. 2018 Jan;20(1):7). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

Familial cancer of breast;C1836860:Fanconi anemia complementation group J Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 173 of the BRIP1 protein (p.Arg173His). This variant is present in population databases (rs761432927, gnomAD 0.01%). 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: 186661). 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. -
