The NM_007294.4(BRCA1):c.1530delA(p.Gly511AlafsTer21) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★★). Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.
BRCA1 (HGNC:1100): (BRCA1 DNA repair associated) This gene encodes a 190 kD nuclear phosphoprotein that plays a role in maintaining genomic stability, and it also acts as a tumor suppressor. The BRCA1 gene contains 22 exons spanning about 110 kb of DNA. The encoded protein combines with other tumor suppressors, DNA damage sensors, and signal transducers to form a large multi-subunit protein complex known as the BRCA1-associated genome surveillance complex (BASC). This gene product associates with RNA polymerase II, and through the C-terminal domain, also interacts with histone deacetylase complexes. This protein thus plays a role in transcription, DNA repair of double-stranded breaks, and recombination. Mutations in this gene are responsible for approximately 40% of inherited breast cancers and more than 80% of inherited breast and ovarian cancers. Alternative splicing plays a role in modulating the subcellular localization and physiological function of this gene. Many alternatively spliced transcript variants, some of which are disease-associated mutations, have been described for this gene, but the full-length natures of only some of these variants has been described. A related pseudogene, which is also located on chromosome 17, has been identified. [provided by RefSeq, May 2020]

The c.1530del variant in the BRCA1 gene is located on the exon 10 and is predicted to cause shift of reading frame which introduces a premature translation termination codon (p.Gly511Alafs*21), resulting in an absent or disrupted protein product. The variant has been reported from individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 29446198, 12698193). The other protein termination codon variants located in the same exon (p.Ser510*, p.Leu598*) have been interpreted as pathogenic (ClinVar ID: 54286, 54352). Loss-of-function variants in the BRCA1 gene are known to cause hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 21989022, 11802209, 32375709). This variant has been reported in ClinVar as pathogenic by the expert panel (ID: 54287). The variant is absent in the general population database (gnomAD). Therefore, the c.1530del (p.Gly511Alafs*21) variant in the BRCA1 gene has been classified as pathogenic. -

The c.1530delA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 1530, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.G511Afs*21). This mutation was reported in one family who participated in the Scottish/Northern Irish BRCA1/BRCA2 Consortium study (S/NI Consortium, Br. J. Cancer 2003 Apr; 88(8):1256-62). This alteration is also known as 1649delA in published literature. In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gly511Alafs*21) in the BRCA1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BRCA1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 12698193, 29446198). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 54287). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
