Genes affected

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]

Significance: Likely benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

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. The evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was sufficient to determine this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign. -

The BRCA1 p.Tyr105Cys variant was identified in 4 of 6744 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.0006) from American, Spanish, Moroccan and Portuguese individuals or families with breast and breast/ovarian cancer (Borg_2010_20104584, Diez_2003_12955716, Laraqui_2013_23289006, Peixoto_2015_24916970). A hierarchcal statistical model of the data in the case control study (Borg_2010_20104584), found the variant to be neutral (Capanu_2011_21520273). A cDNA-based functional assay looking at the variantâ€šÃ„Ã´s ability to functionally complement BRCA1-deficient mouse embryonic stem cells found the variant to be neutral, showing protein levels and cisplatin response comparable to wildtype (Bouwman_2013_23867111). In another functional assay looking at homology directed repair and single-strand annealing, the variant showed an intermediate phenotype, neither fully active nor fully defective, thereby classifying it as uncertain significance (Towler_2013_23161852). Using a method combining the bioinformatics tool A-GVGD, which assesses variation present at a missense position against multiple sequence alignments, and any co-occurrences with the variant, the variant was classified as uncertain significance (Tavtigian_2006_16014699). Two bioinformatics models that calculate posterior probability and likelihood ratio of pathogenicity, both integrating multiple forms of genetic evidence, found the variant to be not pathogenic or neutral (Lindor_2012_21990134, Easton_2007_17924331). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs28897673) â€šÃ„ÃºWith Likely benign alleleâ€šÃ„Ã¹, ClinVar (benign, reviewed by an expert panel (2015); submitters: benign by ENIGMA, Michigan Medical Genetics Laboratories (University of Michigan), Ambry Genetics, Invitae, GeneDx, and BIC, and likely benign by Counsyl and CSER_CC_NCGL(University of Washington)), Clinvitae (5x), COGR (by 3 clinical labs classified as benign/likely benign and uncertain significance), LOVD 3.0, UMD-LSDB (22x as 1-neutral, co-occurring with a BRCA1 pathogenic variant (c.IVS6+1G>T/c.516+1G>T)), BIC Database (18x with no clinical importance, classification pending), ARUP Laboratories (not pathogenic, or of no clinical importance), and was not identified in Cosmic, MutDB, or Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database. The variant also co-occurred in trans with known pathogenic BRCA1 variants (623del5 and 5385insC) (Judkins_2005_16267036). The variant was identified in control databases in 19 of 245822 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00008 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). Observation by population included: â€šÃ„ÃºOtherâ€šÃ„Ã¹ in 2 of 5482 chromosomes (freq: 0.0004), Latino in 3 of 33552 chromosomes (freq: 0.00009), European Non-Finnish in 14 of 111554 chromosomes (freq: 0.0001); it was not observed in the African, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, European Finnish, and South Asian populations. The p.Tyr105 residue is not conserved in mammals and four out of five computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood the Cys variant impacts the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and 1 of 5 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing; this is not very predictive of pathogenicity. 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 likely benign. -
