Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -3 ACMG points: 0P and 3B. BP4_ModerateBP6
The NM_007294.4(BRCA1):c.3746C>G(p.Thr1249Ser) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000434 in 1,614,156 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 13/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. 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. T1249A) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Also known as 3865C>G; Observed in individuals undergoing clinical testing for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome (Abkevich et al., 2004; Judkins et al., 2005); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 32377563, 31911673, 29884841, 31853058, 15235020, 16267036) -
The BRCA1 c.3746C>G (p.Thr1249Ser) variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals with a personal or family history of breast cancer (PMIDs: 36329109 (2022), 35980532 (2022), 33471991 (2021) see also LOVD (https://databases.lovd.nl/shared/variants/BRCA1)), and is described to be located in a region of the BRCA1 gene that is tolerant to missense sequence changes (PMID: 31911673 (2020)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00016 (4/24966 chromosomes in African/African American subpopulation (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is higher than would generally be expected for pathogenic variants in this gene. 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 benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1Benign:1
The p.T1249S variant (also known as c.3746C>G), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 3746. The threonine at codon 1249 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Variant summary: BRCA1 c.3746C>G (p.Thr1249Ser) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.6e-05 in 251258 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.3746C>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome without strong evidence for causality (examples: Judkins_2005, Matta_2022, Pereira_2022). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 16267036, 36329109, 35980532). Five submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 (VUS: n=3; likely benign/benign: n=2). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
