Genes affected

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 p.Lys1110del variant was identified in at least 1 of 55630 proband chromosomes from individuals or families with breast or ovarian cancer (Judkins 2005). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs80358335) “With Uncertain significance allele”, the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC) database (released Jan 13, 2015) in 54 of 121128 chromosomes (frequency: 0.0004), or 54 individuals from a population of South Asian individuals, and none from European (Non-Finnish), East Asian, Other, African, Latino, or European (Finnish) individuals; and the ClinVar database (classified as a variant with uncertain significance by BIC, Ambry Genetics and Molecular Genetics Diagnostic Laboratory, CHEO and classification not provided by Invitae), and GeneInsight COGR database(3X, classified as “unknown significance” by 2 clinical laboratories, and unclassified by another). This variant is an in-frame deletion resulting in the removal of a lysine (Lys) residue at codon 1110; however, the impact of this alteration on BRCA1 protein function is not known. A cDNA-based functional complementation assay using BRCA1-deficient mouse embryonic stem cells, classified the variant as neutral by restoring cell proliferation and showing cisplatin sensitivity at levels similar to wild-type BRCA1 protein (Bouwman 2013). However, the impact of this alteration on other aspects of BRCA1 protein function is not known. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

The BRCA1 c.3328_3330delAAG; p.Lys1110del variant (rs80358335) is reported in the literature in individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer (Ahmad 2012, Mannan 2016, Mehta 2018), and is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 54840). This variant is found in the South Asian population with an allele frequency of 0.3% (99/30598 alleles, including 1 homozygote) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The lysine at codon 1110 is not highly conserved and does not occur in a known functional domain. Additionally, at least one functional study shows this variant is able to complement the growth defect of BRCA1 null cells, suggesting the variant does not impair BRCA1 function (Bouwman 2013). However, due to limited information, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain at this time. REFERENCES Ahmad J et al.

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

Variant summary: BRCA1 c.3328_3330delAAG (p.Lys1110del) results in an in-frame deletion that is predicted to remove one amino acid from the encoded protein. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00039 in 250772 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0032 within the South Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency within South Asian control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 3.2 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in BRCA1 causing Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome phenotype (0.001). c.3328_3330delAAG has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer without strong evidence for causality (e.g. Judkins_2005, Ahman_2012, Gleicher_2014, Mehta_2018, de Oliveira_2022, Hovland_2022), and was additionally found in an unaffected individual in the literature (Mannan_2016). Experimental evidence including an HDR assay evaluating impact on protein function showed no damaging effect of this variant (Bouwman_2013, Bouwman_2020). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 16267036, 23867111, 19370767, 22486713, 25036526, 26911350, 28263838, 29785135, 32546644, 30555256, 35534704, 34981296). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 54840). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
