This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 23 of the BRCA1 gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported to result in the loss of BRCA1 protein function in a haploid cell proliferation assay (PMID: 30209399). This variant has been reported in more than twenty individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 8554067, 9760198, 10505028, 11260866, 16644204, 16683254, 20104584, 20727672, 24504028, 24549055, 25682074, 26187060, 26541979, 27153395, 27553291, 28324225, 28423363, 28724667, 29339979, 29470806, 31209999) and has been identified in over 100 families among the CIMBA participants (PMID: 29446198) (https://cimba.ccge.medschl.cam.ac.uk/). This variant has been identified in 3/251278 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BRCA1 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

The heterozygous variant in the BRCA1 gene (c.5503C>T; p.Arg1835*)is considered pathogenic. This change results in a premature stop codon interrupting an important functional domain BRCT2 (PMID: 11739404) and premature truncation results in impaired function. This variant has been previously published in 2 individuals of Punjabi ethnicity and part of a cohort of unrelated Pakistani individuals with breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 16998791), though the paper has no additional information on the phenotype of the affected individuals. This variant has also been seen in multiple affected individuals by other clinical labs (SCV000109430, SCV000145551, SCV000186917, SCV000210227, SCV000077033). -

The stop gained c.5503C>T p.Arg1835Ter variant in BRCA1 has been reported has been reported previously in heterozygous state in patients with breast cancer and ovarian cancer Hasmad HN et al. 2016. The experimental studies have shown that this premature translational stop signal affects BRCA1 function Ye Q et al 2001. The p.Arg1835Ter variant has allele frequency 0.001% in gnomAD Exomes and is novel not in any individuals in 1000 Genomes. This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Pathogenic multiple submiters. The nucleotide change c.5503C>T in BRCA1 is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation. Loss of function variants have been previously reported to be disease causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg1856*) in the BRCA1 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 29 amino acid(s) of the BRCA1 protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs41293465, gnomAD 0.006%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast, ovarian, and bladder cancer (PMID: 8554067, 10486320, 11802209, 16683254, 19949876, 23704984, 27553291). This variant is also known as 5622C>T. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 55601). Functional studies have shown that although this variant does not trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (PMID: 12393792), it results in a truncated protein lacking the last few amino acid residues and displayed loss of activity (PMID: 11157798). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

DNA sequence analysis of the BRCA1 gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.5503C>T, which results in the creation of a premature stop codon at amino acid position 1835, p.Arg1835*. This sequence change is reported in the gnomAD database with a global population frequency of 0.0012% (dbSNP rs41293465). This sequence change has been described in multiple individuals and families with breast, ovarian and bladder cancer (PMID: 27553291, 8554067, 10486320,11802209, 16683254,19949876, 23704984,31528241). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 5622C>T in published literature. Functional studies have shown that although this variant does not trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (PMID: 12393792), it results in a truncated protein lacking the last few amino acid residues and displayed loss of activity (PMID: 11157798). These collective evidences indicate that this sequence change is pathogenic. -

The BRCA1 c.5503C>T (p.Arg1835*) variant causes the premature termination of BRCA1 protein synthesis. This variant has been reported in the published literature in multiple individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMIDs: 8554067 (1996), 16998791 (2006), 24504028 (2014), 27553291 (2016), 29021639 (2017), 28724667 (2017), and 29446198 (2018)). Functional studies found that this variant was damaging to protein function (PMIDs: 29280214 (2018) and 30209399 (2018)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000012 (3/251278 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is consistent with pathogenicity. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:5
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg1835*) in the BRCA1 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 29 amino acid(s) of the BRCA1 protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs41293465, gnomAD 0.006%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast, ovarian, and bladder cancer (PMID: 8554067, 10486320, 11802209, 16683254, 19949876, 23704984, 27553291). This variant is also known as 5622C>T. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 55601). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on gene product structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies have shown that this premature translational stop signal affects BRCA1 function (PMID: 11739404). RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this premature translational stop signal on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (internal data). This variant disrupts a region of the BRCA1 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Tyr1853*) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 12400015, 21922593; internal data). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The p.Arg1835X variant in BRCA1 has been identified in >50 individuals with BRCA1-associated cancers (Breast Cancer Information Core (BIC) database). This variant has been identified in 2/30616 South Asian chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (GnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org); however, this frequency is low enough to be consistent with the frequency of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) in the general population. This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 1835. This alteration occurs within the last exon and is more likely to escape nonsense mediated decay (NMD), resulting in a truncated protein. However, in vitro functional studies provide some evidence that this truncation may impact protein function (Ye 2001). Furthermore, this variant was classified as Pathogenic on Apr 22, 2016 by the ClinGen-approved ENIGMA Expert Panel (ClinVar SCV000282345.1). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) based upon its frequency in affected individuals and absence from controls.

Variant summary: BRCA1 c.5503C>T (p.Arg1835X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 251278 control chromosomes. c.5503C>T has been widely reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (example, Rebbeck_2018). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories and one expert panel (ENIGMA) have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:3
The p.R1835* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.5503C>T), located in coding exon 22 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 5503. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 22. This alteration occurs at the 3' terminus of theBRCA1 gene, is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, and only impacts the last 29 amino acids of the protein. However, premature stop codons are typically deleterious in nature and the impacted region is critical for protein function (Ambry internal data). This mutation has been detected in multiple hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) syndrome cohorts to date (Serova O et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 1996 Jan;58:42-51; Rashid MU et al. BMC Cancer. 2016 08;16:673; Meisel C et al. Arch. Gynecol. Obstet. 2017 May;295:1227-1238; Briceño-Balcázar I et al. Colomb. Med. 2017 Jun;48:58-63; Sun J et al. Clin. Cancer Res. 2017 Oct;23:6113-6119; Heramb C et al. Hered. Cancer Clin. Pract. 2018 Jan;16:3; Apessos A et al. Cancer Genet. 2018 01;220:1-12). One functional study found that this nucleotide substitution is non-functional in a high-throughput, genome editing, haploid cell survival assay (Findlay GM et al. Nature, 2018 10;562:217-222). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 5622C>T in published literature. Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

The p.Arg1835X variant is reported in the literature in 12/7062 proband chromosomes of individuals with breast and ovarian cancer (Bellacosa 2010, Borg 2010, Dizin 2006, Evans 2003, Ferla 2007, Frank 1998, Magnard 2002, Ramus 2007, Rashid 2006, Spurdle 2008); it was not found in any of the 484 control chromosomes. It is listed in dbSNP database as coming from a "clinical source" (ID#: rs#:41293465) but no frequency information was provided, and is therefore, not very informative for assessing the population frequency. The alteration leads to a premature stop codon at position 1835 which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein and loss of function, which is an established disease mechanism for the BRCA1 gene in hereditary breast and ovarian cancer. The variant is reported in the BIC database (x66) and UMD database (x20) as a variant of clinical significance. In addition, two functional studies using the yeast two-hybrid screen and glutathione-S-transferase (GST) pull-down assay, determined that the variant abolished interaction of BRCA1 with two proteins: Acetyl Coenzyme A (CoA) Carboxylase and PABP (Dizin 2006, Magnard 2002). In summary, based on the above information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
