Our verdict is Benign. Variant got -12 ACMG points: 0P and 12B. BP4_StrongBP6_Very_Strong
The NM_007294.4(BRCA1):c.441+18C>T variant causes a intron change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000769 in 1,561,146 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 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]
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.87).

Variant summary: BRCA1 c.441+18C>T alters a non-conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. 2/2 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing, and these predictions were confirmed by an mRNA transcript analysis (Houdayer 2012). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.1e-05 in 258156 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not higher than the expected maximum for a pathogenic variant in BRCA1 causing Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer (8.1e-05 vs 0.001), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.441+18C>T in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer has been reported. Four other clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation, and classified the variant as benign (1x) / likely benign (3x). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -
