Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -3 ACMG points: 0P and 3B. BP4_ModerateBP6
The NM_007294.4(BRCA1):c.1573G>A(p.Val525Ile) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000868 in 1,613,566 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 14/22 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. V525L) has been classified as Likely benign.

The BRCA1 c.1573G>A (p.Val525Ile) variant has been reported in an individual with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 23961350 (2012)). In addition, this variant is reported to be located in region of the BRCA1 gene that is tolerant to missense sequence changes (PMID: 31911673 (2020)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.0002 (5/24928 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 (i.e., MutationTaster and PolyPhen-2) 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. -
The BRCA1 p.Val525Ile variant was identified by Solano (2012) in an individual referred for testing due to early onset of breast or ovarian cancer or a family history of breast or ovarian cancer. The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs80357273) the BIC database (1X with unknown clinical importance), and UMD (1X as an unclassified variant). The variant was classified as likely benign by the Sharing Clinical Reports Project (SCRP) (submitted within the ClinVar database and derived from Myriad reports). The p.Val525 residue is not conserved in mammals and the variant amino acid isoleucine (Ile) is present in chicken, increasing the likelihood that this variant does not have clinical significance. Computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as predicted benign. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Benign:3
- -
This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

Variant summary: BRCA1 c.1573G>A (p.Val525Ile) 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 consistent with its presence in a coldspot region where missense variants are very unlikely to be pathogenic (PMID:31911673). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 250234 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.1573G>A has been reported in the literature as a VUS in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer and pancreatic cancer (example, Solano_2013, Shindo_2017, Hauke_2020). 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: 28767289, 23961350,33273034). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 54298). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
