Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 26681312, 28709830, 32242007, 26720728, 30716324, 30154229, 31512090, 31589614, 33471991, 29922827, 31341520) -
The BRIP1 c.1372G>T; p.Glu458Ter variant (rs587780228), is reported in the literature in individuals with a clinical history of ovarian cancer, breast cancer, glioblastoma, or colon polyps (Norquist 2016, Susswein 2016). This variant is classified as pathogenic by several laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID: 128156). It is observed in the general population at a low overall allele frequency of 0.006% (2/30950 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. This variant induces an early termination codon and is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. Based on available information, this variant is considered pathogenic. REFERENCES Norquist BM et al. Inherited Mutations in Women With Ovarian Carcinoma. JAMA Oncol. 2016 Apr;2(4):482-90.

The BRIP1 c.1372G>T (p.Glu458*) variant causes the premature termination of BRIP1 protein synthesis. This variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals with breast cancer (PMID: 34326862 (2021)), male breast cancer (PMID: 31512090 (2019)), and ovarian cancer (PMID: 32242007 (2020)), 26720728 (2015)). This variant has also been identified in individuals with no personal history of cancer (PMID: 33471991 (2021), 29922827 (2018), 28709830 (2017), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/genes/BRIP1)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000011 (3/279188 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is consistent with pathogenicity. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

The p.E458* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1372G>T), located in coding exon 9 of the BRIP1 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 1372. This changes the amino acid from a glutamic acid to a stop codon within coding exon 9. This mutation has been identified in multiple individuals with a personal and/or family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (Norquist BM et al. JAMA Oncol, 2016 Apr;2:482-90; Schoolmeester JK et al. Hum Pathol, 2017 12;70:14-26; Guindalini RSC et al. Clin Cancer Res, 2019 03;25:1786-1794; Arvai KJ et al. Hered Cancer Clin Pract, 2019 Jul;17:19; Subramanian DN et al. Nat Commun, 2020 04;11:1640), including an individual with male breast cancer (Scarpitta R et al. Breast Cancer Res Treat, 2019 Dec;178:557-564). This mutation has also been detected in a cohort of 315 patients with intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (Skaro M et al. Gastroenterology, 2019 05;156:1905-1913). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 10 of the BRIP1 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 in individuals affected with a personal and/or family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 26681312, 26720728, 28709830, 30154229, 31341520, 31512090) as well as in an individual affected with intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (PMID: 30716324). This variant has been identified in 3/279188 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BRIP1 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: BRIP1 c.1372G>T (p.Glu458X) 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 6.5e-05 in 30950 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The variant, c.1372G>T, has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer (Norquist_2016, Schoolmeester_2017, Susswein_2015). 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. Five ClinVar submissions from clinical diagnostic laboratories (evaluation after 2014) cites the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
Familial cancer of breast;C1836860:Fanconi anemia complementation group J Pathogenic:2
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu458*) in the BRIP1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BRIP1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16116423, 17033622, 21964575). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer, ovarian cancer, or glioblastoma (PMID: 26681312, 26720728). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 128156). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
