Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
This variant inserts 1 nucleotide in exon 23 of the BRCA1 gene, creating a frameshift and extending the C-terminus of the variant protein by 16 amino acids compared to the reference protein. This variant alters the protein sequence starting at codon 1829 and disrupts the last 29 amino acids of the BRCT domain, that is important for phosphopeptide binding and DNA damage response (PMID: 25701377) and is therefore expected to result in a non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in at least two individuals affected with ovarian cancer or early-onset breast cancer (PMID: 27767231, 28145423). This variant has been identified in 1/251056 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BRCA1 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:1
For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. A different truncation (p.Gln1857Argfs*65) that lies downstream of this variant has been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 21520333, 11573086, 14576433, 15133503, 25652403). This suggests that deletion of this region of the BRCA1 protein is causative of disease. This variant has been observed in an individual affected with ovarian cancer (PMID: 27767231). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 254471). This variant is present in population databases (rs768401297, ExAC 0.001%). This sequence change duplicates 1 nucleotide from exon 23 of the BRCA1 mRNA (c.5485dupG), causing a frameshift at codon 1829. This is expected to delete the last 35 amino acids of the BRCA1 protein and replace them with 15 additional amino acid residues, creating a new downstream translational stop signal in the last exon that extends the length of the protein (p.Glu1829Glyfs*51). While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it may result in a disrupted BRCA1 protein. -
