NM_007294.4:c.591C>T

Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -16 ACMG points: 0P and 16B. BA1BP5_StrongBP7_Strong

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.591C>T variant in BRCA1 is a synonymous variant (p.Cys197=). The highest non-cancer, non-founder population filter allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1 (exomes only, non-cancer subset, read depth ≥20) or gnomAD v3.1 (non-cancer subset, read depth ≥20) is 0.001402 in the European (non-Finnish) population, which is above the ENIGMA BRCA1/2 VCEP threshold (>0.001) for BA1 (BA1 met). This is a synonymous (silent) variant, and mRNA experimental analysis indicates no impact on splicing or an increase of in-frame naturally occurring splice isoforms with production of wildtype transcripts (PMIDs: 19892845, 22505045, 24607278, 23239986), considered strong evidence against pathogenicity (BP7_Strong (RNA)). Multifactorial likelihood ratio analysis using clinically calibrated data produced a combined LR for this variant of 1.33E-16 (based on Pathology LR=1.33E-16), below the threshold for very strong benign evidence (LR <0.00285) (BP5_Very strong met; ENIGMA internal contributor).In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as a Benign variant for BRCA1-related cancer predisposition based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied as specified by the ENIGMA BRCA1/2 VCEP (BA1, BP7_Strong (RNA), BP5_Very strong).

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]
