Variant summary
Our verdict is Benign. Variant got -8 ACMG points: 0P and 8B. BP6_Very_Strong
The NM_007294.4(BRCA1):c.824G>A(p.Gly275Asp) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000354 in 1,611,772 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Benign (★★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. G275S) has been classified as Likely benign.

Variant allele has low bioinformatic likelihood to encode a missense alteration affecting protein function (Missense prior probability 0.02; http://priors.hci.utah.edu/PRIORS/), AND low bioinformatic likelihood to alter mRNA splicing (splicing prior 0.02; http://priors.hci.utah.edu/PRIORS/), AND minor allele frequency 0.00104 (East Asian), derived from gnomAD v2.1.1 non-cancer (2019-05-13). -

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

Variant summary: BRCA1 c.824G>A (p.Gly275Asp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00022 in 298510 control chromosomes, exclusively reported within the East Asian subpopulation at a frequency of 0.001 (in the gnomAD database and in Momozawa_2018). This frequency is comparable to the expected maximum frequency for a pathogenic variant in BRCA1 causing Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer (0.001 vs 0.001), suggesting the variant could be a benign polymorphism found in populations from East Asia. In addition, the variant was reported in some East Asian subpopulations with even higher allele frequencies, e.g. in Koreans (0.0026, in gnomAD), and in Japanese (0.0012, in HGVD), further supporting a benign role for the variant. c.824G>A has been reported in the literature numerous individuals (generally in East Asians) affected with breast- and ovarian cancer and other tumor phenotypes (Carney_2010, Haffty_2009, Judkins_2005, Kato_2016, Kawahara_2004, Sakayori_2003, Shin_2016, Suter_2004, Zhong_2016, Bhaskaran_2019, Chan_2018, Choi_2018, Lee_2018, Park_2017), but was also found in several unaffected East Asian controls (Park_2017, Momozawa_2018). At-least two co-occurrences with another likely pathogenic variant (BRCA1 c.5165C>T, p.Ser1722Phe; Chan_2018) and a pathogenic variant (BRCA2 c.2808_2811delACAA, p.Ala938Profs, internal testing observation) have been observed, providing supporting evidence for a benign role. Two recent case-control association studies, involving breast cancer patients and controls of Korean- (Park_2017) and Japanese ancestry (Momozawa 2018), found that the variant is not associated with a significant increase in breast/ovarian cancer risk, and therefore the authors of these studies classified that the variant as likely benign/benign, respectively. In addition, in a study involving Korean breast cancer patients, multifactorial probability was estimated by performing systematic assessments of variants of unknown significance in the BRCA genes (which included analysis of co-occurrence with known deleterious mutations, personal and family history of cancer and tumor pathology) and predicted this variant to be likely benign (Lee_2018). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Eleven other clinical diagnostic laboratories and one expert panel (ENIGMA) have provided clinical-significance assessments for this variant in ClinVar after 2014, and classified the variant as likely benign (n=5), benign (n=1, ENIGMA) and VUS (n=6). Several submitters cite overlapping evidence utilized in the context of this evaluation. Based on the absence of any actionable evidence supporting causality in over 15 years of review and co-occurrence with other pathogenic variants in the BRCA1/2 genes, further supported by an expert panel assessment as outlined above, the variant was re-classified as benign. -
Variant identified in a genome or exome case(s) and assessed due to predicted null impact of the variant or pathogenic assertions in the literature or databases. Disclaimer: This variant has not undergone full assessment. The following are preliminary notes: This variant has been reported in 4 papers in HGMD, that include affected and unaffected individuals. This variant is classified in ClinVar with 2 stars as VUS by Invitae, Ambry, GeneDx, and West China Hospital. The variant has a Max MAF of 0.13% in ExAC (12 East Asian alleles) and 0.1% in gnomAD (20 alleles). 19 non-mammals have an Asp at this position. -

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. -
