Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 0 ACMG points: 2P and 2B. PM2 BP4 BP6

The NM_007294.4(BRCA1):c.766A>T(p.Arg256Trp) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000685 in 1,459,300 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R256K) has been classified as Likely benign.

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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 0 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.41586947).
• BP6: Variant 17-43094765-T-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr17-43094765-T-A is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 141549.We mark this variant Likely_benign, oryginal submissions are: {Uncertain_significance=2, Likely_benign=1}.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1 Benign:1

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter	curation	University of Washington Department of Laboratory Medicine, University of Washington	Mar 23, 2023	Missense variant in a coldspot region where missense variants are very unlikely to be pathogenic (PMID:31911673). -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Dec 17, 2021	The p.R256W variant (also known as c.766A>T), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from an A to T substitution at nucleotide position 766. The arginine at codon 256 is replaced by tryptophan, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. Based on protein sequence alignment, this amino acid position is not well 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. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 256 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Arg256Trp). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRCA1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 141549). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA1 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. -
