Genes affected
BRIP1 (HGNC:20473): (BRCA1 interacting helicase 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the RecQ DEAH helicase family and interacts with the BRCT repeats of breast cancer, type 1 (BRCA1). The bound complex is important in the normal double-strand break repair function of breast cancer, type 1 (BRCA1). This gene may be a target of germline cancer-inducing mutations.

The p.G481C variant (also known as c.1441G>T), located in coding exon 9 of the BRIP1 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 1441. The glycine at codon 481 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This variant was reported in cohort of 1824 patients with triple negative breast cancer who were unselected for family history of breast or ovarian cancer and in 1/854 patients with apparently sporadic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (Couch FJ et al. J. Clin. Oncol. 2015 Feb;33:304-11; Shindo K et al. J. Clin. Oncol. 2017 Oct;35:3382-3390). This variant was also identified in a cohort of 3,579 African males diagnosed with prostate cancer who underwent multi-gene panel testing of 19 DNA repair and cancer predisposition genes(Matejcic M et al. JCO Precis Oncol 2020 Jan;4:32-43). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces glycine with cysteine at codon 481 of the BRIP1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function. 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: 25452441) and in an individual affected with pancreatic cancer (PMID: 28767289). In an international breast cancer case-control meta-analysis, this variant was detected in 2/60466 cases and 1/53461 unaffected controls (PMID: 33471991). This variant has been identified in 4/243620 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. -

Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Identified in individuals with a personal history of breast or pancreatic cancer (Couch et al., 2015; Shindo et al., 2017; Easton et al., 2016; Dorling et al., 2021); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25452441, 32659497, 29285234, 28767289, 26921362, 33471991) -

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 481 of the BRIP1 protein (p.Gly481Cys). 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 missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer and/or pancreatic cancer (PMID: 25452441, 28767289). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 128158). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on BRIP1 protein function. 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. -
