Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PM1
The NM_007294.4(BRCA1):c.5318C>T(p.Thr1773Ile) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000616 in 1,461,820 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. 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. T1773A) has been classified as Uncertain significance.
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]

Significance: Likely benign
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing
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. -

Not observed in large population cohorts (Lek 2016); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Observed in individuals with breast cancer and in healthy controls (Momozawa 2018); Also known as 5437C>T; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 30209399, 31159747, 20516115, 30287823, 28781887, 30765603) -

This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1773 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Thr1773Ile). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 30287823, 31159747). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 55522). Advanced modeling performed at Invitae incorporating data from internal and/or published experimental studies (PMID: 30209399) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA1 function with a negative predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect BRCA1 function (PMID: 20516115, 30209399, 30765603). 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. -
