Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 1 ACMG points: 2P and 1B. PM2BP4
The NM_007294.4(BRCA1):c.919A>G(p.Lys307Glu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars).
BRCA1 (HGNC:1100): (BRCA1 DNA repair associated) This gene encodes a 190 kD nuclear phosphoprotein that plays a role in maintaining genomic stability, and it also acts as a tumor suppressor. The BRCA1 gene contains 22 exons spanning about 110 kb of DNA. The encoded protein combines with other tumor suppressors, DNA damage sensors, and signal transducers to form a large multi-subunit protein complex known as the BRCA1-associated genome surveillance complex (BASC). This gene product associates with RNA polymerase II, and through the C-terminal domain, also interacts with histone deacetylase complexes. This protein thus plays a role in transcription, DNA repair of double-stranded breaks, and recombination. Mutations in this gene are responsible for approximately 40% of inherited breast cancers and more than 80% of inherited breast and ovarian cancers. Alternative splicing plays a role in modulating the subcellular localization and physiological function of this gene. Many alternatively spliced transcript variants, some of which are disease-associated mutations, have been described for this gene, but the full-length natures of only some of these variants has been described. A related pseudogene, which is also located on chromosome 17, has been identified. [provided by RefSeq, May 2020]

This missense variant replaces lysine with glutamic acid at codon 307 of the BRCA1 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with familial breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 26848529). In a large breast cancer case-control study, this variant has been observed in 0/60466 cases and 2/53461 unaffected controls (PMID: 33471991). This variant has been identified in 2/251354 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. -

The p.K307E variant (also known as c.919A>G), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 919. The lysine at codon 307 is replaced by glutamic acid, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration was detected in 10/92 breast and/or ovarian cancer families from mainland China and was noted to be the most common variant in BRCA1 found in this cohort (Kim YC et al. Oncotarget. 2016 Feb 23;7(8):9600-12). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 307 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Lys307Glu). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 26848529, 30702160). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 482907). 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 not expected to disrupt BRCA1 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. -
