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]

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:4
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 19, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Asn1018Metfs*8) in the BRCA1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BRCA1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). This variant is present in population databases (rs80357856, gnomAD 0.004%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 11781691, 15951958, 20151938, 24504028). It is commonly reported in individuals of Western Swedish ancestry (PMID: 11781691, 15951958, 20151938). This variant is also known as 3171ins5. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 54763). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineJun 19, 2020The p.Asn1018MetfsX8 variant in BRCA1 has been reported in >40 Caucasian individuals with BRCA1-associated cancers and segregated with disease in > 15 affected relatives (initial description by Shattuck-Eidens 1995 PMID: 7837387). It has also been identified in 0.004% (4/113524) of European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant was classified as pathogenic on 10/18/16 by the ClinGen-approved ENIGMA expert panel (Variation ID 54763). This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 1018 and leads to a premature termination codon 8 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the BRCA1 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal dominant HBOC. This variant has been characterized by haplotype mapping as a founder mutation in western Sweden, accounting for a majority of BRCA1 variants identified in the region (Bergman 2005 PMID: 15951958). Additional variants involving this codon (c.3052_3053ins5; c.3049_3050ins7; c.3049G>T, p.Glu1017Ter) have been identified in individuals with HBOC and are classified as pathogenic by ClinVar. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant hereditary breast and ovarian cancer. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PM2, PS4, PP1_Strong. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 13, 2024Variant summary: BRCA1 c.3048_3052dupTGAGA (p.Asn1018MetfsX8) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.6e-05 in 254200 control chromosomes. c.3048_3052dupTGAGA has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. 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: , 18465347, 24728189, 7837387, 24240112). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 54763). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsFeb 01, 2022The c.3048_3052dupTGAGA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a duplication of TGAGA at nucleotide position 3048, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.N1018Mfs*8). This mutation has been reported in multiple hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) syndrome families and has been established as a Swedish founder mutation and the most recurrent BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation in this population (Shattuck-Eidens D et al. JAMA. 1995 Feb;273:535-41; Johannsson O et al. Am J Hum Genet, 1996 Mar;58:441-50; Einbeigi Z et al. Eur J Cancer, 2001 Oct;37:1904-9; Bergman A et al. Eur. J. Hum.

Fam Cancer, 2016 10;15:507-12; Rebbeck TR et al. Breast Cancer Res. 2016 Nov;18:112). Of note, this alteration is also referred to as 3171ins5, 3172ins5 and 3166ins5 in published literature. In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

Malignant tumor of breast Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The p.Asn1018MetfsX8 variant was identified in the literature in 6 of 1714 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.003) from individuals or families with Breast and Ovarian cancers (Hakansson 1997, Thomassen 2008, Kainu 1996, Bergman 2001). The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs80357856) “With pathogenic allele”. In the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC) database the variant was identified in 4 of 66706 European (Non-Finnish) alleles (frequency 6 x 10-5.) The variant was also identified in LOVD 2x classified as pathogenic; the ClinVar database (classified as a pathogenic variant by Ambry Genetics, GeneDx, Pathway Genetics, OMIM, Invitae and BIC); in the BIC database (46x with clinical importance, class 5 definitely pathogenic); in UMD (1x as a class 5 causal variant). In Clinvitae the variant was identified 5x as pathogenic The c.3048_3052dupTGAGA variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) do not predict a difference in splicing. The p.Asn1018MetfsX8 duplication variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein's amino acid sequence beginning at codon 1018 and leads to a premature stop codon 8 codons downstream. This alteration is then predicted to result in a truncated or absent protein and loss of function. Loss of function variants of the BRCA1 gene are an established mechanism of disease in hereditary breast and ovarian cancer and is the type of variant expected to cause the disorder. In summary, based on the above information, this variant meets our laboratory’s criteria to be classified as pathogenic. -
