The NM_007294.4(BRCA1):c.5291T>C(p.Leu1764Pro) variant causes a missense change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV004829741: Functional studies have reported that this variant impacts BRCA1 function in homology-directed DNA repair, transcription activation, haploid cell proliferation and additional assays (PMID:30257991, 30209399, 29884841, 27272900, 23867111, 20516115, 20378548, 17308087)." and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. L1764Q) has been classified as Uncertain significance. The gene BRCA1 is included in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry.
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]

PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV004829741: Functional studies have reported that this variant impacts BRCA1 function in homology-directed DNA repair, transcription activation, haploid cell proliferation and additional assays (PMID: 30257991, 30209399, 29884841, 27272900, 23867111, 20516115, 20378548, 17308087).; SCV000607979: Functional studies including c-DNA complementation, homologous recombination, yeast-based assays, nuclear localization and solubility assays, and transcription activation assays have all demonstrated deficient function (Carvalho MA et al. Cancer Res. 2007 Feb; 67(4):1494-501; Bouwman P et al. Cancer Discov. 2013 Oct; 3(10):1142-55; Lee MS et al. Cancer Res. 2010 Jun 15;70(12):4880-90; Woods NT et al. NPJ Genom Med 2016 Mar;1; Petitalot A et al. Mol. Cancer Res. 2019 01;17(1):54-69). One functional study found that this nucleotide substitution is deleterious in a high throughput genome editing haploid cell survival assay (Findlay GM et al. Nature. 2018 10;562(7726):217-222).; SCV000699234: Multiple functional studies have been performed that support these predictions. The variant of interest has been indicated to cause fold destabilization.; SCV001578892: Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects BRCA1 function (PMID: 17305420, 17308087, 20378548, 20516115, 23867111, 27272900, 30209399).
