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

not provided Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxDec 17, 2021Observed in individuals with breast or ovarian cancer (Moyer 2020); Published functional studies suggest a damaging effect: unable to rescue DNA damage repair in BRIP1-null cells (Moyer 2020); Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek 2016); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25344691, 31822495) -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoJul 06, 2023In the published literature, this variant has been reported in individuals with breast cancer (PMID: 33471991 (2021), 31822495 (2020), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/genes/BRIP1)). This variant has been reported to have a deleterious effect on BRIP1 protein function, however further studies are required to validate this finding (PMID: 31822495 (2020)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000012 (3/251302 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthDec 10, 2019This missense variant replaces arginine with cysteine at codon 777 of the BRIP1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has been identified in 3/251302 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. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMay 28, 2024The p.R777C variant (also known as c.2329C>T), located in coding exon 15 of the BRIP1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2329. The arginine at codon 777 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. In one study, the p.R777C alteration was detected in 1/101,759 breast cancer cases and 0/15,587 ovarian cancer cases, and in an inter-strand cross link damage survival assay, the p.R777C alteration was found to be functionally abnormal (Moyer CL et al. Cancer Res. 2020 Feb;80:857-867). This alteration was identified in an individual diagnosed with Fanconi anemia (George M et al. Hum Mutat, 2021 Dec;42:1648-1665). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

Familial cancer of breast;C1836860:Fanconi anemia complementation group J Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 08, 2022This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 777 of the BRIP1 protein (p.Arg777Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs768555161, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 31822495). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 185165). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects BRIP1 function (PMID: 31822495). 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. -
