Genes affected
BAP1 (HGNC:950): (BRCA1 associated protein 1) This gene belongs to the ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase subfamily of deubiquitinating enzymes that are involved in the removal of ubiquitin from proteins. The encoded enzyme binds to the breast cancer type 1 susceptibility protein (BRCA1) via the RING finger domain of the latter and acts as a tumor suppressor. In addition, the enzyme may be involved in regulation of transcription, regulation of cell cycle and growth, response to DNA damage and chromatin dynamics. Germline mutations in this gene may be associated with tumor predisposition syndrome (TPDS), which involves increased risk of cancers including malignant mesothelioma, uveal melanoma and cutaneous melanoma.

BAP1-related tumor predisposition syndrome Uncertain:3
Jun 17, 2025
St. Jude Molecular Pathology, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The BAP1 c.1769A>T p.(Gln590Leu) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.0009% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). The in silico tool REVEL predicts a benign effect on protein function, but to our knowledge this prediction has not been confirmed by functional studies. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with BAP1-related tumor predisposition syndrome. In summary, the evidence currently available is insufficient to determine the clinical significance of this variant. It has therefore been classified as of uncertain significance. -

Jan 21, 2025
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces glutamine, which is neutral and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 590 of the BAP1 protein (p.Gln590Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs756472919, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with pancreatic cancer (PMID: 28767289). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 412401). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BAP1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

In the published literature, this variant has been reported in an individual with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PMID: 28767289 (2017)) as well as an unaffected individual (PMID: 29641532 (2018)). Additionally, the variant has been reported in individuals undergoing cancer testing (PMID: 28717660 (2017)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000008 (2/251362 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded conflicting predictions that this variant is benign or damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

GeneDx
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Not observed in any cases, but was observed in unaffected controls from a melanoma study (Pritchard et al., 2018); Observed in an individual with pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor and another individual with metastatic cancer of unspecified type whose tumor also carried a BAP1 deletion (Cabanillas et al., 2017; Shindo et al., 2017); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 27123562, 28767289, 28717660, 29641532) -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1Benign:1

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces glutamine with leucine at codon 590 of the BAP1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with BAP1-related disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 2/251362 chromosomes 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. -

Ambry Genetics
Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

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. -

BAP1-related disorder Uncertain:1

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The BAP1 c.1769A>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Gln590Leu. This variant has been reported in an individual with a pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (pNET) (as c.1769T>A in Table A2, Shindo et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28767289) and in another individual with a personal and/or family history of cancer (type not specified; Table 7, Cabanillas et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28717660). This variant is reported in 0.00088% of alleles in individuals of European (non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD and is interpreted as uncertain in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/412401/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
