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

The p.A926V variant (also known as c.2777C>T), located in coding exon 18 of the BRIP1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2777. The alanine at codon 926 is replaced by valine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice donor site. RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in a transcript predicted to escape nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. It only impacts the C-terminus of the protein, and the clinical impact of this abnormal splicing is unknown at this time (Ambry internal data). In addition, as a missense substitution this is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

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

This missense variant replaces alanine with valine at codon 926 of the BRIP1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has been identified in 3/251384 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. -

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 926 of the BRIP1 protein (p.Ala926Val). RNA analysis indicates that this missense change induces altered splicing and likely disrupts the C-terminus of the protein. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.006%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRIP1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 491456). 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 BRIP1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. Studies have shown that this missense change results in skipping of partial exon 19 and introduces a new termination codon (internal data). However the mRNA is not expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. This variant disrupts the TopBP1-binding region of the BRIP1 protein, which plays a critical role in RPA chromatin loading and the activation of the replication checkpoint in response to DNA damage (PMID: 20159562, 21127055). While functional studies have not been performed to directly test the effect of this variant on BRIP1 protein function, this suggests that disruption of this region of the protein is causative of disease. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

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

Variant summary: BRIP1 c.2777C>T (p.Ala926Val) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 251384 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.2777C>T in individuals affected with Breast Cancer and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 491456). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
