Our verdict is Benign. Variant got -8 ACMG points: 0P and 8B. BP6_Very_Strong
The NM_007294.4(BRCA1):c.5468-10_5468-9delCT variant causes a intron change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000149 in 1,613,810 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely benign (★★).
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]

Variant summary: BRCA1 c.5468-10_5468-9delCT removes two nucleotides located close to a canonical splice site and therefore it could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. 4/4 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.6e-05 in 267346 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00057 within the Latino subpopulation in the gnomAD database. This frequency is somewhat lower than estimated maximum expected for a pathogenic variant in BRCA1 causing Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (0.001), however, the variant can still represent a benign polymorphism. The variant, c.5468-10_5468-9delCT, has been reported in the literature in an individual of Hispanic ancestry, who was affected with breast cancer (Vogel_2007), but without evidence for causality. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Four other ClinVar submitters have assessed the variant since 2014: two have classified the variant as likely benign and two as benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
