Genes affected
BRIP1 (HGNC:20473): (BRCA1 interacting helicase 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the RecQ DEAH helicase family and interacts with the BRCT repeats of breast cancer, type 1 (BRCA1). The bound complex is important in the normal double-strand break repair function of breast cancer, type 1 (BRCA1). This gene may be a target of germline cancer-inducing mutations.

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

The p.Y748* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.2244C>G), located in coding exon 14 of the BRIP1 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 2244. This changes the amino acid from a tyrosine to a stop codon within coding exon 14. This alteration has been previously reported in an individual with primary peritoneal serous carcinoma (Sung PL et al. PLoS ONE, 2017 Sep;12:e0185615). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

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

This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 15 of the BRIP1 gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast, ovarian, and peritoneal cancer in the literature (PMID: 28961279, 29566657, 31742824). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BRIP1 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Tyr748*) in the BRIP1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BRIP1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16116423, 17033622, 21964575). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with primary peritoneal serous carcinoma (PMID: 28961279). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 430591). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: BRIP1 c.2244C>G (p.Tyr748X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant was absent in 251216 control chromosomes. c.2244C>G has been reported in the literature in settings of multi-gene panel testing in at least one individual affected with primary peritoneal serous carcinoma (e.g. Sung_2017). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 28961279). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 430591). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
