Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 0 ACMG points: 4P and 4B. PM1PM4BS2

The NM_000465.4(BARD1):​c.30_44dupGCAGCCGAGGATCCG​(p.Arg15_Ser16insGlnProArgIleArg) variant causes a disruptive inframe insertion change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000132 in 1,589,118 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type INS_BIG, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. R15R) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected
BARD1 (HGNC:952): (BRCA1 associated RING domain 1) This gene encodes a protein which interacts with the N-terminal region of BRCA1. In addition to its ability to bind BRCA1 in vivo and in vitro, it shares homology with the 2 most conserved regions of BRCA1: the N-terminal RING motif and the C-terminal BRCT domain. The RING motif is a cysteine-rich sequence found in a variety of proteins that regulate cell growth, including the products of tumor suppressor genes and dominant protooncogenes. This protein also contains 3 tandem ankyrin repeats. The BARD1/BRCA1 interaction is disrupted by tumorigenic amino acid substitutions in BRCA1, implying that the formation of a stable complex between these proteins may be an essential aspect of BRCA1 tumor suppression. This protein may be the target of oncogenic mutations in breast or ovarian cancer. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

This variant, c.30_44dup, results in the insertion of 5 amino acid(s) of the BARD1 protein (p.Gln11_Arg15dup), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.003%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BARD1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 481374). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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. -

The BARD1 c.30_44dup; p.Gln11_Arg15dup variant (rs587781297), to our knowledge, is not reported in the medical literature but is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 481374). This variant is found in the non-Finnish European population with an allele frequency of 0.003% (3/89,058 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database (v2.1.1). This variant duplicates five amino acid residues leaving the rest of the protein in-frame. Due to limited information, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain at this time. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant causes the in-frame duplication of 5 amino acids in the BARD1 protein. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has been identified in 3/203892 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. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.30_44dup15 variant (also known as p.Q11_R15dup), located in coding exon 1 of the BARD1 gene, results from an in-frame duplication of 15 nucleotides at nucleotide positions 30 to 44. This results in the duplication of 5 extra residues (QPRIR) between codons 11 and 15. This amino acid region is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be neutral by in silico analysis (Choi Y et al. PLoS ONE. 2012; 7(10):e46688). Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
