Genes affected

BARD1 (HGNC:952): (BRCA1 associated RING domain 1) This gene encodes a protein which interacts with the N-terminal region of BRCA1. In addition to its ability to bind BRCA1 in vivo and in vitro, it shares homology with the 2 most conserved regions of BRCA1: the N-terminal RING motif and the C-terminal BRCT domain. The RING motif is a cysteine-rich sequence found in a variety of proteins that regulate cell growth, including the products of tumor suppressor genes and dominant protooncogenes. This protein also contains 3 tandem ankyrin repeats. The BARD1/BRCA1 interaction is disrupted by tumorigenic amino acid substitutions in BRCA1, implying that the formation of a stable complex between these proteins may be an essential aspect of BRCA1 tumor suppression. This protein may be the target of oncogenic mutations in breast or ovarian cancer. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change results in a frameshift in the BARD1 gene (p.Leu775Argfs*19). While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 3 amino acid(s) of the BARD1 protein and extend the protein by 15 additional amino acid residues. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BARD1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 141836). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this frameshift on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (internal data). This variant disrupts the C-terminal BRCT domain of the BARD1 protein. The BRCT domains of BARD1 are required for the chromosome stability maintenance and homology-directed repair activity of the BARD1 protein (PMID: 17848578, 17550235, 26738429). While functional studies have not been performed to directly test the effect of this variant on BARD1 protein function, this suggests that disruption of this region of the protein is causative of disease. 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. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.2324_2325delTT variant, located in coding exon 11 of the BARD1 gene, results from a deletion of two nucleotides at nucleotide positions 2324 to 2325. This alteration changes the last three residues of the BARD1 protein and results in the elongation of the protein by 15 amino acids before introducing an alternate stop codon (p.L775Rfs*19). This alteration occurs at the 3' terminus of theBARD1 gene, is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNAdecay and results in the elongation of the protein by 15 amino acids. This frameshift impacts the last 3amino acids of the native protein. The exact functional effect of the altered amino acids is unknown. 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 variant deletes 2 nucleotides in exon 11 of the BARD1 gene, creating a frameshift in the last exon and addition of 18 new amino acids before introducing a stop codon. This results in a protein product that is 15 amino acids longer than the normal protein product. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals affected with BARD1-related disorders in the literature. This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BARD1 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). 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. -

Variant summary: The BARD1 c.2324_2325delTT (p.Leu775ArgfsX3+) variant results in a frameshift and a 15 amino acid extension of the protein. One in silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. This variant is absent in 245804 control chromosomes in gnomAD. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as uncertain significance. The variant of interest has not, to our knowledge, been reported in affected individuals via publications nor evaluated for functional impact by in vivo/vitro studies. Taken together, this variant is classified as a VUS until additional evidence becomes available. -
