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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -12 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.71).
• BP6: Variant 17-43106439-A-G is Benign according to our data. Variant chr17-43106439-A-G is described in ClinVar as [Likely_benign]. Clinvar id is 221064.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	May 17, 2021	Variant summary: BRCA1 c.212+17T>C alters a non-conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. 4/4 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. A recently published study evaluating splicing impact using semi-quantitative capillary electrophoresis, Sanger sequencing and allele-specific assays did not detect any abnormal transcripts indicative of no impact on splicing. This variant was classified as benign (Class 1 variant) following the ENIGMA guidelines (Montalban_2019). The variant was absent in 247566 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.212+17T>C has been reported in the literature in at-least one individual affected with stomach cancer who had a family history of various cancers (Montalban_2019). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. Four 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 benign (n=1)/likely benign (n=3). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	Dec 15, 2016	This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -
