Our verdict is Benign. Variant got -16 ACMG points: 0P and 16B. BP6_Very_StrongBS1BS2
The ENST00000357654.9(BRCA1):c.441+36_441+38del variant causes a intron change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00191 in 1,115,902 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 17 homozygotes. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as 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 BRCA1 c.441+36_441+38delCTT variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (Exome Variant Server), Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC) database, HGMD, LOVD, COSMIC, the ClinVar database, GeneInsight VariantWire database and the BIC database. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs147856441) and UMD (16X as a neutral variant). This variant was also identified in the 1000 Genomes Project in 1977 of 5008 chromosomes (frequency: 0.395), increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant. 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, this variant meets our laboratory's criteria to be classified as benign. -
