Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 3 ACMG points: 3P and 0B. PM2PP3
The NM_032043.3(BRIP1):c.379G>A(p.Asp127Asn) variant causes a missense, splice region change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000124 in 1,613,528 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predicting alterations to normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. D127G) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
The c.379G>A variant (also known as p.D127N), located in coding exon 3 of the BRIP1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 379. The amino acid change results in aspartic acid to asparagine at codon 127, an amino acid with highly similar properties. However, this change occurs in the last base pair of coding exon 3, which makes it likely to have some effect on normal mRNA splicing. This nucleotide position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice donor site; however, direct evidence is insufficient at this time (Ambry internal data). Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
This missense variant replaces aspartic acid with asparagine at codon 127 of the BRIP1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may impact RNA splicing. However, this prediction has not been confirmed in published RNA studies. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has not been identified 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. -
Familial cancer of breast;C1836860:Fanconi anemia complementation group J Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 127 of the BRIP1 protein (p.Asp127Asn). This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 4, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRIP1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 489837). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. 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. -
