Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PVS1 PM2 PP5_Moderate

The NM_000465.4(BARD1):​c.2078dupA​(p.Leu694AlafsTer12) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. K693K) has been classified as Likely benign.

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.

This sequence change results in a premature translational stop signal in the BARD1 gene (p.Leu694Alafs*12). While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 84 amino acids of the BARD1 protein. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with BARD1-related disease. This variant disrupts approximately 47% of the BRCT functional domain, which is encoded by amino acids 602-777. The entire BRCT domain is known to be required for chromosome stability and homology-directed repair of BARD1 protein (PMID: 17848578). 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. -
