The NM_007294.4(BRCA1):c.594-16dupT variant causes a intron change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000692 in 1,444,772 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely benign (★★).
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]

The c.594-16dupT variant was not identified in the literature. The variant was identified in UMD 1x as an “unclassified variant”. The variant was not identified in dbSNP Clinvitae database, COSMIC, “Mismatch Repair Genes Variant Database”, “MMR Gene Unclassified Variants Database”, InSiGHT Colon Cancer Gene Variant Database (LOVD), Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database (LOVD), ClinVar database, or GeneInsight - COGR database. It was absent from control databases NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (Exome Variant Server), Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC) Browser and 1000 Genomes. The 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. 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. -
