Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 7 ACMG points: 7P and 0B. PM2PP3_StrongPP5
The NM_152743.4(BRAT1):c.236T>C(p.Leu79Pro) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000149 in 1,614,012 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. L79L) has been classified as Likely benign.

Submissions by phenotype
not provided Pathogenic:1
Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
Neonatal-onset encephalopathy with rigidity and seizures Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 79 of the BRAT1 protein (p.Leu79Pro). This variant is present in population databases (rs771024050, gnomAD 0.0009%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRAT1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 571508). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt BRAT1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. 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. -
Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
The c.236T>C (p.L79P) alteration is located in exon 3 (coding exon 2) of the BRAT1 gene. This alteration results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 236, causing the leucine (L) at amino acid position 79 to be replaced by a proline (P). Based on data from gnomAD, the C allele has an overall frequency of <0.001% (1/251026) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 0.001% (1/113394) of European (non-Finnish) alleles. This variant has been identified in the homozygous state and/or in conjunction with other BRAT1 variants in individuals with features consistent with BRAT1-related neurodevelopmental disorder (Engel, 2023). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. Based on internal structural analysis, this variant is anticipated to result in a significant decrease in structural stability (Ambry internal data). This alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
