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 alanine with threonine at codon 1789 of the BRCA1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies have reported that this variant impairs BRCA1 protein function (PMID: 18680205, 19493677, 20737206, 28781887, 30209399, 32546644). This variant has been reported in a mother and daughter pair affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 18680205, 20737206), in at least three individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 30264118, 30287823), and in an individual affected with ovarian cancer (Color internal data). This variant also has been reported with a family history likelihood ratio for pathogenicity of 3.1958 (PMID: 31131967). This variant has been identified in 1/251448 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

The p.A1789T variant (also known as c.5365G>A), located in coding exon 20 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 5365. The alanine at codon 1789 is replaced by threonine, an amino acid with similar properties. One functional study found that this nucleotide substitution is non-functional in a high-throughput, genome editing, haploid cell survival assay (Findlay GM et al. Nature, 2018 10;562:217-222). Multiple authors from one group have reported a variety of functional studies including yeast assays and gene expression profiles that suggest the p.A1789T variant could be deleterious (Caligo MA et al. Hum. Mutat. 2009 Jan;30:123-33; Di Cecco L et al. Eur. J. Cancer. 2009 Aug;45:2187-96; Guidugli L et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2011 Jan;125:265-72; Iofrida C et al. BMC Cancer. 2012 May;12:207; Guglielmi C et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat., 2013 Oct;141:515-22). Authors of another study found this alteration to be deleterious based on cisplatin and olaparib sensitivity assays in addition to a direct repeat GFP homologous recombination repair assay (Bouwman P et al. Cancer Discov. 2013 Oct;3:1142-55; Bouwman P et al. Clin Cancer Res, 2020 09;26:4559-4568). Additional studies also suggested this alteration could be pathogenic based on its reduced activity in transcription activation assays (Woods NT et al. NPJ Genom Med. 2016 Mar;1; Fernandes VC et al. J Biol Chem, 2019 04;294:5980-5992). This amino acid position is highly 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 alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1789 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Ala1789Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs80357078, gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 18680205, 26381082; internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 55552). Invitae Evidence Modeling incorporating data from in vitro experimental studies (PMID: 30209399) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt BRCA1 function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects BRCA1 function (PMID: 18680205, 19493677, 22646717, 23867111, 24104880). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
