The NM_007294.4(BRCA1):āc.2060A>Cā(p.Gln687Pro) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000508 in 1,614,138 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. Q687H) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.
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 BRCA1 c.2060A>C (p.Gln687Pro) variant has been reported in an individual with breast cancer, as well as in a reportedly healthy individual, in a large case-control study (PMID: 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/)). This variant has also been identified in individuals with pancreatic cancer (PMID: 35205643 (2022)) and Wilms tumor (PMID: 38110397 (2023)). Additionally, this variant has been described as being likely benign in a multifactorial likelihood study (PMID: 31131967 (2019)), and reported to be located in a region of the BRCA1 gene that is tolerant to missense sequence changes (PMID: 31911673 (2020)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000023 (3/129072 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded conflicting predictions that this variant is benign or damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

This missense variant replaces glutamine with proline at codon 687 of the BRCA1 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been detected in a breast cancer case-control meta-analysis in 1/60466 cases and 1/53461 unaffected individuals (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA1_000181). A multifactorial analysis has reported likelihood ratios for pathogenicity based on co-occurrence with a pathogenic variant and family history of 1.0673 and 0.311, respectively (PMID: 31131967). This variant has been identified in 3/282714 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.Q687P variant (also known as c.2060A>C), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from an A to C substitution at nucleotide position 2060. The glutamine at codon 687 is replaced by proline, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Variant summary: BRCA1 c.2060A>C (p.Gln687Pro) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251304 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.2060A>C has been reported in the literature as a VUS in a setting of BRCA1/2 gene panel testing at least one case of ovarian cancer, however whether the variant was germline or somatic was not determined (e.g. Ellison_2015). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. A recent report from the CAGI5 (fifth Critical Assessment of Genome Interpretation) challenge has classified this variant as likely benign in a prediction protocol that includes assessment of the impact of this variant on splicing and protein function using four sets of predictors (Padilla_2019). A companion study, (Cline_2019) was also in agreement with this classification. However, to our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 16518693, 31294896, 25859162, 20167696, 38110397, 31112341, 15385441, 23704879). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37443). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
