Genes affected

BARD1 (HGNC:952): (BRCA1 associated RING domain 1) This gene encodes a protein which interacts with the N-terminal region of BRCA1. In addition to its ability to bind BRCA1 in vivo and in vitro, it shares homology with the 2 most conserved regions of BRCA1: the N-terminal RING motif and the C-terminal BRCT domain. The RING motif is a cysteine-rich sequence found in a variety of proteins that regulate cell growth, including the products of tumor suppressor genes and dominant protooncogenes. This protein also contains 3 tandem ankyrin repeats. The BARD1/BRCA1 interaction is disrupted by tumorigenic amino acid substitutions in BRCA1, implying that the formation of a stable complex between these proteins may be an essential aspect of BRCA1 tumor suppression. This protein may be the target of oncogenic mutations in breast or ovarian cancer. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Sep 29, 2023	The c.2334A>G variant (also known as p.*778Wext*10), located in coding exon 11 of the BARD1 gene, results from a A to G substitution at nucleotide position 2334. This alteration disrupts the stop codon of the BARD1 gene and is predicted to preserve the native sequence while resulting in the elongation of the protein by 10 amino acids. The exact functional effect of the additional amino acids is unknown. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	Dec 06, 2022	This variant alters the translation stop codon of the BARD1 gene and results in the extension of the protein length by 10 amino acids. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with BARD1-related disorders 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. -

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. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 919193). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BARD1-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change disrupts the translational stop signal of the BARD1 mRNA. It is expected to extend the length of the BARD1 protein by 10 additional amino acid residues. -
