The NM_007294.4(BRCA1):c.397C>T(p.Arg133Cys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000744 in 1,613,810 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Benign (★★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R133H) has been classified 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]

Variant summary: The BRCA1 c.397C>T (p.Arg133Cys) variant (alternatively also known as 516C>T) involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. 5/5 in silico tools predict damaging outcome for this variant. This variant was not found in 121408 control chromosomes from ExAC. It is found in gnomAD database at an allele frequency of 0.000014 (4/277094 chromosomes), which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic BRCA1 variant (0.0010005). It has been reported in breast and/or ovarian cancer patients in literature (Judkins_2005, Brooks_2006, Palma_2008) and a clinical database (BIC) without strong evidence for or against pathogenicity. The publications have classified it as a variant of unknown significance (VUS). In addition, two reputable databases (UMD and BIC) have also classified this variant as a VUS. Taken together, this variant is classified as Variant of Unknown Significance. -

This missense variant replaces arginine with cysteine at codon 133 of the BRCA1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in families affected with or at high risk for breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 16267036, 18703817), as well as in healthy individuals (PMID: 24728327). This variant has been identified in 4/282702 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. -

The p.R133C variant (also known as c.397C>T), located in coding exon 5 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 397. The arginine at codon 133 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This alteration has been identified in several studies of individuals with a personal and/or family history suggestive of hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer (Judkins T et al. Cancer Res, 2005 Nov;65:10096-103; Brooks GA et al. Cancer Biol Ther, 2006 Sep;5:1098-102; Palma MD et al. Cancer Res, 2008 Sep;68:7006-14; Ben Ayed-Guerfali D et al. J Transl Med, 2021 Mar;19:108). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

This variant is present in population databases (rs80357457, gnomAD 0.003%). 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. Based on a multifactorial likelihood algorithm using genetic, in silico, and/or statistical data, this variant has been determined to have a low probability of being pathogenic (PMID: 31131967, 32546644). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 55067). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 18703817). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 133 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Arg133Cys). -
