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 cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2Benign:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthFeb 22, 2023This missense variant replaces arginine with cysteine at codon 504 of the BRCA1 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with breast cancer and in a suspected hereditary breast and ovarian cancer family (PMID: 28525389, 29310832), and this variant also has been detected in a breast cancer case-control meta-analysis in 1/60466 cases and 1/53461 unaffected individuals (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA1_000154). This variant has been identified in 4/282442 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 30, 2023The p.R504C variant (also known as c.1510C>T), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1510. The arginine at codon 504 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This alteration was reported in a Greek woman with a personal history of breast cancer (Apessos A et al. Cancer Genet 2018 Jan;220:1-12). Additionally, several papers have predicted that this alteration will affect protein function based primarily on sequence conservation through evolution (Burk-Herrick A et al. Mamm Genome. 2006 Mar; 17(3):257-70; Ramirez CJ et al. Oncogene. 2004 Mar; 23(9):1780-8; Fleming MA et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 2003 Feb; 100(3):1151-6). However, one functional study reported that this alteration had no significant deviations in protein expression, proteasomal degradation, stability, or subcellular localization (Hovland HN et al. Genes (Basel). 2023 Jan;14(2)). This amino acid position is 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. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpAug 30, 2019Variant summary: BRCA1 c.1510C>T (p.Arg504Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the BRCA1, serine-rich domain of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 251052 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.1510C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with or being tested for Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer (Judkins_2005, Ronowicz_2015, Apessos_2018, Dougherty_2017). Co-occurrence with other pathogenic variant has been reported (BRCA2, p.Asn3124Ile), providing supporting evidence for a benign role (Ronowicz_2015). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
BRCA1-related cancer predisposition Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthMay 31, 2024This missense variant replaces arginine with cysteine at codon 504 of the BRCA1 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant.

This variant has been identified in 4/282442 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Malignant tumor of breast Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The BRCA1 p.Arg504Cys variant was not identified in affected individuals in the literature, but was identified in dbSNP (ID# rs80357445) “with untested allele”, in the Exome Variant Server ESP Project with a frequency of 0.0002 in African American alleles, in BIC 1x as a variant of unknown clinical importance, and in the LOVD database. The p.Arg504 residue is not conserved in mammals and lower organisms, and the variant amino acid (Cys) is present in cow, increasing the likelihood this is a benign variant. Computational analyses (PolyPhen2, SIFT, AlignGVGD) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein and this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. Two in silico evolutionary conservation studies suggest that the variant affects protein function (Fleming 2003, Ramirez 2004), while another similar study yielded inconclusive results (Burk-Herrick 2006). Additionally, the authors of these three studies note that the variant may confer oncogenic risk as it occurs within one of the BRCA1 nuclear localization sites. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in-silico or computational prediction software (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) does not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. Therefore this variant is a variant of unknown significance (VUS). -

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 19, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 504 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Arg504Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs80357445, gnomAD 0.004%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 26219265, 28525389). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 54277). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
