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.

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 376 of the BARD1 protein (p.Ser376Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs587782333, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hereditary cancer (PMID: 31159747). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 142247). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function outputs the following: PolyPhen-2: "Benign". The leucine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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. -

Variant summary: BARD1 c.1127C>T (p.Ser376Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 6.4e-05 in 251330 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00013 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database. This frequency is not higher than predicted for a pathogenic variant in BARD1 causing Breast Cancer (6.4e-05 vs 0.00025), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1127C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals who underwent genetic testing for familial cancers (e.g. Tsaousis_2019), but also in healthy controls (e.g. Ramus_2015). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Breast Cancer. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Seven clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as VUS (n=5) and likely benign (n=2) . Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Observed in an individual undergoing multigene testing for hereditary cancer, as well as both cases and controls in a breast cancer study, and absent in cases but present in controls in an ovarian cancer study (Ramus et al., 2015; Tsaousis et al., 2019; Dorling et al., 2021); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 26315354, 33471991, 30541756, 31159747, 36187937) -
