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.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthJan 15, 2020This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 3 of the BARD1 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 identified in 2/251010 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BARD1 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 03, 2022The p.R112* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.334C>T), located in coding exon 3 of the BARD1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 334. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 3. This alteration was detected in a cohort of 8085 consecutive unselected Chinese breast cancer patients who underwent multi-gene panel testing (Sun L et al. Clin. Cancer Res. 2017 Oct;23(20):6113-6119), and has been reported in 1 of 124 patients with stage II-III triple negative breast cancer (González-Rivera M et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2016 Apr;156:507-515). This alteration has also been reported as a germline mutation in a cohort of patients with neuroblastoma tumors (Pugh TJ et al. Nat. Genet. 2013 Mar; 45(3):279-84. 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. -

Malignant tumor of breast Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJul 15, 2022Variant summary: BARD1 c.334C>T (p.Arg112X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the 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. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.5e-05 in 259978 control chromosomes (gnomAD and Palmer_2020). c.334C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with breast cancer (e.g. Gonzalez-Rivera_ 2016, Tavera-Tapia_2017, Sun_2017, Weber-Lassalle_2019) and in individuals with neuroblastoma and ovarian cancer (e.g.Pugh_2013, Lilyquist_2017). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. Four clinical diagnostic laboratories and a professional group (CZECANCA consortium) have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and all classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
