Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -4 ACMG points: 2P and 6B. PM1BP4_ModerateBS2
The NM_000465.4(BARD1):c.1136A>G(p.Lys379Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000805 in 1,613,974 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 17/22 in silico tools predict 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. K379N) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Submissions by phenotype
not provided Uncertain:2
In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
- -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1Benign:1
This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
This missense variant replaces lysine with arginine at codon 379 of the BARD1 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 an individual affected with breast or ovarian cancer (PMID: 30306255) and an unaffected individual (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BARD1_000302). This variant has been identified in 10/251338 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. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Variant summary: BARD1 c.1136A>G (p.Lys379Arg) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-05 in 251338 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in BARD1 causing Breast Cancer (4e-05 vs 0.00025), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1136A>G has been reported in the literature in at least one individual with suspected HBOC. These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Breast Cancer. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 30306255). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 186863). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
BARD1-related disorder Uncertain:1
The BARD1 c.1136A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Lys379Arg. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.029% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD and has conflicting interpretations of uncertain and likely benign in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/186863/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
Familial cancer of breast Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 379 of the BARD1 protein (p.Lys379Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs750827325, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 30306255). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 186863). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function outputs the following: PolyPhen-2: "Benign". The arginine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect 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. -
