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.

Submissions by phenotype

Familial cancer of breast Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMyriad Genetics, Inc.May 31, 2023This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant creates a termination codon and is predicted to result in premature protein truncation. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthJun 28, 2021This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 5 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 been reported in individuals affected with ovarian cancer, melanoma, and Lynch syndrome–associated cancer and/or polyps (PMID: 25980754, 31745173, 32756499). This variant has also been identified in 2/251320 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. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsAug 02, 2022The p.R162* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.484C>T), located in coding exon 4 of the BRIP1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 484. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 4. 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. -
Familial cancer of breast;C1836860:Fanconi anemia complementation group J Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 27, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg162*) in the BRIP1 gene. RNA analysis indicates that this premature translational stop signal induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs747604569, gnomAD 0.007%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 25980754). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 186411). Studies have shown that this premature translational stop signal results in skipping of exon 5 and introduces a premature termination codon (Invitae). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
BRIP1-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesFeb 27, 2024The BRIP1 c.484C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg162*). This variant has been reported in individual(s) with personal history of Lynch syndrome or colorectal cancer (for example, Supplemental Table 1, Yurgelun et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25980754; Table S5, Akcay et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32658311). This variant has also been reported in individual(s) with breast cancer or family history of breast cancer (for example, Table S1, Zheng et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 30130155; Table S1, Shao et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 31742824). This variant is reported in 0.0062% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/186411/). Nonsense variants in BRIP1 are considered pathogenic. In summary, this variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJun 06, 2016Variant summary: The BRIP1 c.484C>T (p.Arg162X) 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. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (e.g.c.1871C>A/p.S624X). One in silico tool predicts a damaging outcome for this variant. This variant was found in 1/121388 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000082, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic BRIP1 variant (0.0000625). This variant has been reported in one suspected LS patient and B cell lymphoma sample. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories classified this variant as pathogenic, without evidence to independently evaluate. Taken together, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic until more information becomes available. -
