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.

The p.L432F variant (also known as c.1294C>T), located in coding exon 4 of the BARD1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1294. The leucine at codon 432 is replaced by phenylalanine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration was detected in 1/3236 patients with invasive epithelial ovarian cancer and 0/3431 cancer-free controls of European origin, and it was predicted to be deleterious based on the results of three in silico prediction algorithms (Ramus SJ et al. J. Natl. Cancer Inst. 2015 Nov;107). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 432 of the BARD1 protein (p.Leu432Phe). This variant is present in population databases (rs185164724, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with ovarian cancer (PMID: 26315354). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 485306). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. 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. -

Variant summary: BARD1 c.1294C>T (p.Leu432Phe) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.4e-05 in 250800 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in BARD1 causing Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (4.4e-05 vs 0.00025), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1294C>T has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with Ovarian Cancer without strong evidence of causality (Ramus_2015). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. 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: 26315354). Six submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
