Genes affected
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]

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:curation

Each variant was annotated with functional scores from MAVE data which was translated into functional evidence codes. All other evidence codes and combining criteria were adhered to as closely as possible based on the ClinGen VCEP (Variant Curation Expert Panel) gene-specific recommendations. See Supplemental Figure 34 of final paper (Supp Fig. 28 in preprint: doi:10.1101/2024.04.11.24305690) for a table to see which lines of evidence we did not have data for. The ClinGen VCEPs are highly regarded as the gold-standard for gene-specific variant curation and are developed after extensive evaluation of the evidence by clinical and scientific experts for the particular gene to classify genomic variants on a spectrum from pathogenic to benign using the 2015 ACMG/AMP Variant Interpretation Guidelines as a backbone (PMID: 25741868). Reclassification of these VUS variants from gnomAD or All of Us focused only on variants originally prescribed as VUS in ClinVar. To ensure reproducibility, transparency, and increased throughput, all the procedures for annotating variants and assigning evidence codes were codified using Python. All code has been made freely available and is linked in the Code Availability section and all reclassified variants with evidence codes used can be found in Tables S18-19 (preprint: doi:10.1101/2024.04.11.24305690). For the MAVE data, the clinical curation and clinical strength assignment as per the ClinGen recommendations in Brnich et al. (2020) (PMID: 31892348) for or against pathogenicity or benignity of each of these MAVE datasets utilized in this study were previously published in Fayer et al. (2021) (PMID: 34793697).In brief, for BRCA1 variants, if a variant was categorized as FUNC (functional), it was assigned BS3 evidence and no PS3 evidence, whereas if it was categorized as LOF (loss of function), the variant was assigned PS3 evidence and no BS3 evidence. Variants categorized as INT (intermediate) were left unannotated. For the BRCA1 combining criteria, greater than or equal to 1 criteria of strong benign evidence was enough to reclassify the VUS as Likely Benign. This variant GRCh38:17:43106462:G>A was assigned evidence codes ['BS3'] and an overall classification of Likely benign -

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

This missense variant replaces threonine with isoleucine at codon 69 of the BRCA1 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies have reported that this variant has no impact on BRCA1 function in a haploid cell proliferation assay and a mammalian two-hybrid assay (PMID: 30209399, 35659930). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has not been identified 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. -

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

Variant summary: BRCA1 c.206C>T (p.Thr69Ile) 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 was absent in 249744 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.206C>T in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome has been reported. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function (example, Findlay_2018). These results showed no damaging effect of this variant on homology directed repair (HDR) activity. HDR assays qualify as a recognized gold standard on the basis of updated guidance provided by the ClinGen Sequence Variant Interpretation (SVI) working group. This working group has recommended strong functional evidence (ACMG BS3) as sufficient weightage for categorization as likely benign (Tavtigian_2018). Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. As of this review, none of the submitters have cited the functional evidence utilized in the context of this evalution. Based on the evidence outlined above, pending additional peer consensus supported by co-occurrences demonstrating an alternative molecular basis of disease, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign. -

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 69 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Thr69Ile). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRCA1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 441428). 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). 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

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. -
