Genes affected

BRIP1 (HGNC:20473): (BRCA1 interacting helicase 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the RecQ DEAH helicase family and interacts with the BRCT repeats of breast cancer, type 1 (BRCA1). The bound complex is important in the normal double-strand break repair function of breast cancer, type 1 (BRCA1). This gene may be a target of germline cancer-inducing mutations.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Dec 07, 2022	The p.R251C pathogenic mutation (also known as c.751C>T), located in coding exon 6 of the BRIP1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 751. The arginine at codon 251 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This alteration was reported in one individual diagnosed with Fanconi anemia along with a second alteration in BRIP1 (Chandrasekharappa SC et al. Blood 2013 May;121(22):e138-48). This alteration was also identified the homozygous state in a cohort of Israeli patients diagnosed with Fanconi anemia (Steinberg-Shemer O et al. Haematologica. 2019 Sep), as well as in 55-year-old identical twins, both affected with cancer and a late-onset and less severe form of Fanconi anemia, leading the authors to speculate that this may be a hypomorphic allele (Stevens H et al. Am. J. Hematol. 2016 Dec;91:1273-1276). This alteration has been reported in 0/7636 unselected prostate cancer patients and 1/12,366 male controls of Japanese ancestry (Momozawa Y et al. J. Natl. Cancer Inst. 2019 Jun). Functional studies showed this alteration to be deficient in helicase activity, as well as DNA and ATP binding. In addition, cells expressing this alteration showed increased cell death in response to DNA damaging agents compared to wild type (Guo M et al. J. Biol. Chem. 2014 Apr;289:10551-65). Structural analysis indicates that p.R251C likely disrupts ligand binding in a functionally significant and sensitive region (Ambry internal data, He Y et al. EMBO Rep. 2010 Mar;11:180-6; He Y et al. Nature. 2016 05;533:359-65). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	Dec 27, 2022	This missense variant replaces arginine with cysteine at codon 251 in the helicase domain of the BRIP1 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). Functional studies have shown that the mutant protein shows no DNA helicase activity, reduced ATP binding activity, reduced DNA-dependent ATPase activity, and failed to complement BRIP1-null cell line (PMID: 24573678, 27107905). This variant has been reported in two homozygous individuals affected with Fanconi anemia (PMID: 27427815, 31558676), as well as in an individual affected with Fanconi anemia in compound heterozygous state with a deleterious p.His396Asp variant (PMID: 23613520) (ClinVar variation ID: 659729). In a large breast cancer case-control study, this variant has been observed in 3/60463 cases and 2/53459 controls (PMID: 33471991 - Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRIP1_000010). This variant has also been reported in 2 unaffected control individuals in pancreatic and prostate cancer case-control studies and absent in affected individuals (PMID: 31214711, 32980694). This variant has been identified in 3/251170 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In summary, this variant has been shown to impair BRIP1 protein function. The observation of this variant in biallelic individuals affected with autosomal recessive Fanconi anemia indicates that this variant contributes to disease. Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 251170 control chromosomes. c.751C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Fanconi Anemia Complementation Group J in the homozygous and compound heterozygous state (Chandrasekharappa_2013, Stevens_2016, Steinberg-Shermer_2020, Bogliolo_2020) as well as in patients with breast cancer in the heterozygous state (e.g. Schrader_2016). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. In functional studies, the variant was shown to abolish DNA helicase activity and DNAprotein displacement activity (Guo_2014). Six clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. Five submitters classified the variant as likely pathogenic/pathogenic while one classified the variant as VUS. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

In the published literature, this variant has been reported in individuals with breast cancer (PMID: 26921362 (2016), 26556299 (2016)), Fanconi anemia (PMID: 31586946 (2020), 31558676 (2020), 27427815 (2016), 23613520 (2013)), and pancreatic cancer (PMID: 31214711 (2020)). In a large breast cancer association study, this variant was reported in individuals affected with breast cancer and in healthy controls (PMID: 33471991 (2021), https://databases.lovd.nl/shared/variants/BRIP1). Functional studies reported this variant to be damaging to cell survival, DNA helicase activity, DNA binding, ATP hydrolysis activity and binding, as well as DNA repair functions (PMID: 27107905 (2016), 24573678 (2014)). Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is damaging. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 251 of the BRIP1 protein (p.Arg251Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs752309409, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with breast cancer and/or Fanconi anemia (PMID: 23613520, 26556299, 27427815, 31558676, 31586946). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 185848). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt BRIP1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects BRIP1 function (PMID: 24573678, 27107905). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

The BRIP1 c.751C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg251Cys. This variant was observed in an individual with early-onset breast cancer (Schrader et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26556299, eTable S5 & S7). This variant has also been reported in trans with another missense variant and in the homozygous state in individuals with Fanconi anemia (Chandrasekharappa et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23613520; Stevens et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 27427815; Bogliolo et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 31586946; Steinberg-Shemer et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 31558676). Functional in vitro assays showed that this variant leads to abolished DNA helicase activity and impairs DNA binding (Guo et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 27107905). This variant is reported in 0.0062% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD and is reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic by the majority of entries in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/185848/). This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. -
