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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Jun 20, 2016	Variant summary: The BRCA1 c.5324T>G (p.Met1775Arg) variant involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide and results in a replacement of a medium size and hydrophobic Methionine (M) with a large size and basic Arginine (R) located in the BRCT domain. Consistently, 5/5 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. The variant is absent in 124492 control chromosomes while it was reported in several HBOC patients including one family in which it was shown to co-segregate with the disease, indicating its pathogenicity. Moreover, functional studies demonstrated the variant to impair homology directed repair, single strand annealing, phosphopeptide-binding and transcriptional activity of BRCA1 further supporting a deleterious impact. Additionally, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as Pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine	Nov 09, 2023	The p.Met1775Arg variant in BRCA1 has been reported in >20 individuals with BRCA1-associated cancers, with a higher prevalence in those of African descent and segregated with disease in many affected relatives from a large family (Futreal 1994 PMID: 7939630, Miki 1994 PMID: 7545954, Hall 2009 PMID: 19241424, Fackenthal 2012 PMID: 22034289, Pal 2015 PMID: 26287763, BIC database). It has also been identified in 0.002% (1/41432) of African chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org, v.3.1.2). This frequency is low enough to be consistent with the frequency of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) in the general population. In vitro functional studies support an impact on protein function (Kawai 2002 PMID: 12400015, Caligo 2009 PMID: 18680205, Lee 2010 PMID: 20516115, Findlay 2018 PMID: 30209399) and computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that the p.Met1775Arg variant may impact the protein. Additionally, this variant has been classified in ClinVar as Pathogenic on Aug 10, 2015 by the ClinGen-approved ENIGMA expert panel (Variation ID: 17694). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant HBOC. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PS4, PP1_Moderate, PM2_Supporting, PS3_Moderate, PP3. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Dec 27, 2023	This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 1775 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Met1775Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs41293463, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 7545954, 7939630, 22144684). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 17694). Advanced modeling performed at Invitae incorporating data from internal and/or published experimental studies (PMID: 30209399) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt BRCA1 function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects BRCA1 function (PMID: 12400015, 14534301, 19493677, 20516115, 23161852). RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this missense change on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (Invitae). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories	Jan 20, 2021	The BRCA1 c.5324T>G; p.Met1775Arg variant (rs41293463), also known as 5443T>G for traditional nomenclature, is reported in the literature in several individuals and families with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome (Carter 2018, Futreal 1994, Miki 1994), and shown to co-segregate with disease in at least one family (Miki 1994). Functional analyses of the variant protein show reduced protein stability and a severe impact on BRCA1 function (Caligo 2009, Fernandes 2019, Lee 2010, Towler 2013, Williams 2003). This variant is classified as pathogenic by an expert review panel in ClinVar (Variation ID: 17694). This variant is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.001% (4/282786 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The methionine at codon 1775 is located in the highly conserved BRCT repeat domain of BRCA1, and computational analyses predict that this variant is deleterious (REVEL: 0.728). Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Caligo MA et al.

Pathogenic, no assertion criteria provided	clinical testing	Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System	-	The p.Met1775Arg variant was identified in the UMD 2X as a causal variant, in BIC 31X as a variant of unknown clinical importance, and also in the HGMD and LOVD databases. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID#rs41293463) as a clinically associated SNP, with no population frequency data. In addition, this variant was not identified in 1000 control chromosomes from healthy individuals from one study (Phelan 2005), and was not reported in the Exome Variant Server ESP Project. This variant has been found to segregate with disease in one kindred (Miki 1994). The p.Met1775 residue is conserved across mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM) suggest that the p.Met1775Arg variant may impact the protein. However, this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. Several functional studies have concluded that this variant has a deleterious effect on BRCA1 protein function. The mutation has been shown to inhibit the interaction of BRCA1 with the DNA helicase BACH1 (Clapperton 2004, Shiozaki 2004) and with the transcriptional corepressor CtIP (Varma 2005), and yeast and mammalian cell-based assays have demonstrated that the variant impairs transcription activation (Monteiro 1996, Phelan 2005, Tischkowitz 2008). One study utilized a proteolytic sensitivity assay which indicated that the variant results in a folding defect in the BRCT domains, and thus destabilization of this domain (Williams 2003). The authors of this study suggest that this abrogates BRCA1 function, and may explain the spectrum of defects observed in other studies. In summary, based on the above information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome

Pathogenic:2

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Apr 10, 2024	The p.M1775R pathogenic mutation (also known as c.5324T>G), located in coding exon 19 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a T to G substitution at nucleotide position 5324. The methionine at codon 1775 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with similar properties. One functional study found that this nucleotide substitution is deleterious in a high throughput genome editing haploid cell survival assay (Findlay GM et al. Nature. 2018 10;562(7726):217-222). Numerous other functional studies have also found this variant to be deleterious (Easton DF et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 2007 Nov;81:873-83; Lee MS et al. Cancer Res. 2010 Jun;70:4880-90; Lindor NM et al. Hum. Mutat. 2012 Jan;33:8-21; Vallee M et al. Hum. Mutat. 2012 Jan;33:22-8; Towler WI et al. Hum Mutat. 2013 Mar;34:439-45; Petitalot A et al. Mol Cancer Res. 2019 01;17:54-69). The p.M1775R alteration was also identified in a large, worldwide study of BRCA1/2 mutation-positive families (Rebbeck TR et al. Hum Mutat. 2018 05;39:593-620). This alteration is located in the highly conserved BRCT repeat domain of BRCA1 and has been shown to have a severe impact on normal BRCA1 function/activity (Carvalho M et al. Cancer Res. 2007 Feb;67:1494-501; Nikolopoulos G et al. Biochim. Biophys. Acta. 2007 Jun;1774:772-80). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 5443T>G in some published literature. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the supporting evidence, this variant is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	Jan 04, 2024	This missense variant replaces methionine with arginine at codon 1775 of the BRCA1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function. Functional studies have shown that this variant impacts BRCA1 function in homology-directed DNA repair, transcription activation, haploid cell proliferation and protease sensitivity and protein-protein binding assays (PMID: 8942979, 9738006, 11301010, 12427738, 15689452, 23161852, 30209399). This variant has been reported as a recurring mutation and detected in multiple individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 7837387, 7939630, 18284688, 19491284, 20104584, 24240112, 26287763, 27469594, 29337092, 34204722). This variant also has been reported to segregate with disease in a large pedigree with 24 cases of breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 7545954). This variant has been identified in 4/282786 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
