The NM_007294.4(BRCA1):āc.429A>Cā(p.Glu143Asp) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000889 in 1,461,520 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (ā ā ). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. E143K) has been classified as 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]

This missense variant replaces glutamic acid with aspartic acid at codon 143 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). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with breast cancer (PMID: 32772980) and in a breast cancer case-control meta-analysis in 2/60466 cases and 0/53461 unaffected individuals (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA1_001290). A multifactorial analysis has reported likelihood ratio for pathogenicity based on tumor pathology of 1.36 (PMID: 31131967). This variant has been identified in 5/251074 chromosomes 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. -

The p.E143D variant (also known as c.429A>C), located in coding exon 5 of the BRCA1 gene, results from an A to C substitution at nucleotide position 429. The glutamic acid at codon 143 is replaced by aspartic acid, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration was detected in a Polish/Ukranian breast cancer cohort (Nguyen-Dumont T et al. Genet Res (Camb), 2020 Aug;102:e6). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 143 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Glu143Asp). This variant is present in population databases (rs397507228, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 32772980). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37582). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect BRCA1 function (PMID: 32546644). 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. -
