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.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina	Apr 27, 2017	This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

The BRIP1 p.Arg173Cys variant was identified in 2 of 448 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.004) from individuals or families with breast and ovarian cancer and was present in 2 of 246 control chromosomes (frequency: 0.008) from healthy individuals (Lewis 2005, Rutter 2003, Wong 2011). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs4988345) as “other”; in the ClinVar database as benign by Invitae, GeneDx and Ambry genetics, and likely benign by Emory Genetics and Counsyl; and was identified in the Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database 5x. The variant was not identified in the Cosmic and MutDB databases. In addition, the variant was identified in control databases in 737 (2 homozygous) of 277072 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.003 increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant (Genome Aggregation Consortium Feb 27, 2017). One study indicates that the rare variant p.Arg173Cys impairs protein translocation to the nucleus and might modify breast cancer susceptibility. Since the minor allele for this variant is very rare (MAF= 0.008) in Centre d’Etude du Polymorphisme Humain (CEPH) samples, there was very limited evidence to confirm or refute this association using the case-control population in their current research (Song 2007). Denaturing high performance liquid chromatography (DHPLC) analysis of the coding regions of these four genes was conducted on 75 non-BRCA1/2 index cases. Variants, c.517C>T, p.Arg173Cys) and c.3411T>C, p.Thr1137=, were all found in at least one control, indicating that they are likely to be benign (Lewis 2005). The p.Arg173 residue is conserved in mammals but not in more distantly related organisms and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) suggest that the variant may impact the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign. -
