Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points: 4P and 0B. PM1PM2
The NM_007294.4(BRCA1):c.5326C>T(p.Pro1776Ser) variant causes a missense 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 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]

It has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). In the published literature, the variant has been reported in an individual with ovarian cancer (PMID: 10196379 (1999)). Published functional studies found that this variant is not damaging to protein function (PMIDs: 30209399 (2018) and 30458859 (2018)). Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

This variant is denoted BRCA1 c.5326C>T at the cDNA level, p.Pro1776Ser (P1776S) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Proline to a Serine (CCC>TCC). Also reported as BRCA1 5445C>T using alternate nomenclature, this variant was observed in an individual with ovarian cancer and no family history of cancer (Janezic 1999). BRCA1 Pro1776Ser was not observed at a significant allele frequency in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project. Since Proline and Serine differ in polarity, charge, size or other properties, this is considered a non-conservative amino acid substitution. BRCA1 Pro1776Ser occurs at a position that is not conserved and is located within the BRCT2 domain and a region known to interact with multiple proteins (Paul 2014, UniProt). In silico analyses predict that this variant is probably damaging to protein structure and function. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether BRCA1 Pro1776Ser is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -

This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1776 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Pro1776Ser). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with ovarian cancer (PMID: 10196379, 15172985). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 409312). Invitae Evidence Modeling incorporating data from in vitro experimental studies (PMID: 30209399) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA1 function with a negative predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect BRCA1 function (PMID: 30209399, 30458859). 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: 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. -
