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]

This missense variant replaces aspartic acid with valine at codon 245 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). Functional study has shown this variant has neutral effect on DNA interstrand crosslink (ICL) repair (PMID: 23867111). This variant has been reported in at least four individuals affected with breast or ovarian cancer and one unaffected individual (PMID: 26843898, 32806537, 33471991; Color internal data; LOVD DB-ID: BRCA1_001285) and an individual with family history of breast or ovarian cancer (PMID: 27495310). This variant has been identified in 3/250038 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 BRCA1 c.734A>T (p.Asp245Val) variant has been reported in individuals with personal or family history of breast or ovarian cancer (PMID: 37415649 (2023), 33471991 (2021), 32806537 (2020), 27495310 (2016), 26843898 (2016), 25415331 (2014), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/genes/BRCA1)). This variant has also been identified in reportedly healthy individuals (PMID: 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/genes/BRCA1)). A functional study has reported that this variant does not have a deleterious effect on BRCA1 protein function (PMID: 23867111 (2013)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000027 (3/113104 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 predictions that this variant is damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

This missense variant replaces aspartic acid with valine at codon 245 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). A functional study has shown this variant has neutral effect on DNA interstrand crosslink (ICL) repair (PMID: 23867111). This variant has been reported in multiple individuals affected with breast or ovarian cancer, as well as one unaffected individual (PMID: 26843898, 32806537, 33471991; LOVD DB-ID: BRCA1_001285) and an individual with family history of breast or ovarian cancer (PMID: 27495310). This variant has been identified in 3/250038 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.D245V variant (also known as c.734A>T), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from an A to T substitution at nucleotide position 734. The aspartic acid at codon 245 is replaced by valine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This alteration has been identified in individuals with a personal or family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (Wojcik P et al. Hered Cancer Clin Pract, 2016 Feb;14:5; Jarhelle E et al. Fam. Cancer, 2017 01;16:1-16; Foglietta J et al. Genes (Basel), 2020 08;11; Hovland HN et al. Fam Cancer, 2022 Oct;21:389-398; Boga I et al. Eur J Breast Health, 2023 Jul;19:235-252). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 245 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Asp245Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs80356865, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 26843898, 27495310, 32806537). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 55682). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect BRCA1 function (PMID: 23867111). 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. -

Variant summary: BRCA1 c.734A>T (p.Asp245Val) 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 1.2e-05 in 250038 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.734A>T has been reported in the literature in patients with a family history or women diagnosed with breast or ovarian cancer (Jarhelle_2016, Wojcik_2016). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. In a cDNA-based functional assay, to classify the BRCA1 VUSs based on their ability of functionally complement BRCA1-deficient mouse embryonic stem cells, the variant was found to be neutral (Bouwman_2013). Five ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
