In the published literature, this variant has been reported in individuals with a Lynch syndrome-associated cancer (PMID: 25980754 (2015)), B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BALL) (PMID: 26580448 (2014)), and breast cancer (PMID: 26921362 (2016), 33471991 (2021)). This variant has also been reported in unaffected individuals (PMID: 26921362 (2016), 33471991 (2021)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000039 (5/129022 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded conflicting predictions that this variant is benign or damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis indicates that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Identified in patients with breast cancer, Lynch-related cancers and/or polyps, or sarcoma, as well as in cancer-free controls (PMID: 25980754, 27498913, 26921362, 29641532, 34326862); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25980754, 26921362, 29641532, 26580448, 27498913, 34326862) -
The BRIP1 c.413T>C; p.Leu138Ser variant (rs587780251) has been reported in an individual with pediatric cancer, in an individual with breast cancer, and in an individual with suspected Lynch syndrome; however, this variant has also been detected in the control population (Easton 2016, Yurgelun 2015, Zhang 2015). The variant is reported in the ClinVar database (Variation ID: 128191) and is listed in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.002% (6/282,618 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The leucine at codon 138 is moderately conserved and computational analyses are uncertain whether this variant is neutral or deleterious (REVEL: 0.165). Due to limited information, the clinical significance of the p.Leu138Ser variant is uncertain at this time. References: Easton DF et al.

Familial cancer of breast;C1836860:Fanconi anemia complementation group J Uncertain:2
This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 138 of the BRIP1 protein (p.Leu138Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs587780251, gnomAD 0.004%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer, leukemia, suspected Lynch syndrome, sarcoma, and ovarian cancer (PMID: 25980754, 26580448, 26921362, 27498913, 31822495, 34326862). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 128191). 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) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRIP1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this missense change on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (internal data). 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. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
This missense variant replaces leucine with serine at codon 138 of the BRIP1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 26921362), B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (PMID: 26580448), and Lynch syndrome-associated cancer and/or polyps (PMID: 25980754) and sarcoma (PMID: 27498913). This variant has also been identified in 6/282618 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.L138S variant (also known as c.413T>C), located in coding exon 4 of the BRIP1 gene, results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 413. The leucine at codon 138 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This variant has been reported in 1/1120 pediatric cancer patients younger than age 20 who underwent whole genome and/or whole exome sequencing (Zhang J et al. N. Engl. J. Med. 2015 Dec;373:2336-2346). In a case-control study of the BRIP1 gene in familial breast cancer, this variant was seen in 1/13213 cases and 2/5242 controls (Easton DF et al. J. Med. Genet. 2016 05;53:298-309). It has also been reported in 1/1162 patients with sarcoma (Ballinger ML et al. Lancet Oncol. 2016 Sep;17:1261-71). This amino acid position is highly 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. -

Variant summary: BRIP1 c.413T>C (p.Leu138Ser) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Helicase-like, DEXD box c2 type domain (IPR006554) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2e-05 in 251208 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.413T>C has been reported in the literature as a VUS in settings of multigene cancer panel testing among individuals with a variety of cancers such as pediatric cancer (B-ALL), colorectal cancer, Breast Cancer and in unaffected controls (example, Zhang_2015, Yurgelun_2015, Easton_2016, Dorling_2021, Bhai_2021, Moyer_2020). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 25980754, 26921362, 26580448, 34326862, 31822495). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 128191). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
