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.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJun 25, 2021The p.L922* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.2765T>G), located in coding exon 18 of the BRIP1 gene, results from a T to G substitution at nucleotide position 2765. This changes the amino acid from a leucine to a stop codon within coding exon 18. This mutation has been identified in a cohort of unselected patients with triple negative breast cancer (Couch FJ et al. J. Clin. Oncol. 2015 Feb;33:304-11), in 0/3236 cases with invasive epithelial ovarian cancer and in 1/3431 controls (Ramus SJ et al. J. Natl. Cancer Inst. 2015 Nov;107), and in 1/13213 breast cancer cases and 0/5242 controls from the UK (Easton DF et al. J Med Genet, 2016 05;53:298-309). 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. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthAug 25, 2020This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 19 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 not been reported in an individual affected with triple negative breast cancer (PMID: 25452441) and an unaffected control in an ovarian cancer case-control study (PMID: 26315354). This variant has been identified in 3/251392 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. -

This variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMIDs: 25452441 (2015), 26921362 (2016), 29368626 (2018), and 33471991 (2021)), in an individual with testicular, prostate, and bladder cancer (PMDI: 35022142 (2022)), and in unaffected controls (PMIDs: 26315354 (2015), 34887416 (2021), 33804961 (2021), 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/genes/ BRIP1)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000026 (3/113686 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is consistent with pathogenicity. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 10, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu922*) 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). This variant is present in population databases (rs587782410, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 25452441, 26921362). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 142366). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpNov 25, 2016Variant summary: The BRIP1 c.2765T>G (p.Leu922X) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent BRIP1 protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant of interest was observed in the large, broad control population, ExAC, with an allele frequency of 1/121394, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic BRIP1 variant of 1/16000. The variant has been reported in one triple negative breast cancer case as well as a high-risk unaffected control (Couch_2015, Ramus_2015) via publications. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories cite the variant as "pathogenic." However, it does need to be noted, a recent publication by Easton_2016 (PMID: 26921362) indicates that the prevalence of truncating variants in BRIP1 have comparable occurrences in controls and cases, for example, p.Arg798Ter was observed in 23 cases and 18 controls, suggesting that truncating variants may not be associated with a substantial increase in breast cancer risk, although the authors do state "BRIP1 screening might have utility for ovarian cancer risk prediction, in combination with other risk factors." Therefore, the variant of interest has been classified as "Likely Pathogenic." -
