Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points: 2P and 4B. PP3_ModerateBS2

The NM_000465.4(BARD1):​c.266C>T​(p.Pro89Leu) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000023 in 1,611,884 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 Uncertain significance (★★). Another nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid substitution has been previously reported as Uncertain significance in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. P89R) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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.

The BARD1 c.266C>T (p.Pro89Leu) variant has been reported in the published literature in in individuals with ovarian cancer (PMID: 26315354 (2015)) and breast cancer (PMIDs: 32885271 (2021), 34326862 (2021), 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/genes/BARD1)). This variant has been identified in reportedly healthy individuals (PMIDs: 38308423 (2024), 35884425 (2022), 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/genes/BARD1)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000023 (3/128534 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 conflicting predictions that this variant is benign or damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

The BARD1 p.Pro89Leu variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in the Cosmic, MutDB, or the Zhejiang Colon Cancer database. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs780241203) as with Uncertain significance allele, and in the ClinVar and Clinvitae databases (as uncertain significance by Ambry Genetics, Color Genomics and Invitae). The variant was not identified in the 1000 Genomes and the NHLBI GO Exome Sequencing Projects. The variant was further identified in control databases in 4 of 275858 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00002 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). It was observed in the following populations: European Non-Finnish in 3 of 126182 chromosomes (freq: 0.00002), and South Asian in 1 of 30748 chromosomes (freq: 0.00003); but not observed in the African, Other, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, European Finnish, populations. The p.Pro89 residue is conserved across mammals and other organisms, and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) suggest that the variant may impact the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -

This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 89 of the BARD1 protein (p.Pro89Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs780241203, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with ovarian cancer (PMID: 26315354). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 187030). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. 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. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.P89L variant (also known as c.266C>T), located in coding exon 3 of the BARD1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 266. The proline at codon 89 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration was reported in 1/3236 epithelial ovarian cancer cases and was not observed in controls (Ramus SJ et al. J. Natl. Cancer Inst. 2015 Nov;107(11)). This variant was also observed in 2/3251 individuals who met eligibility criteria for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome (Lerner-Ellis J et al. J Cancer Res Clin Oncol, 2021 Mar;147:871-879). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

This missense variant replaces proline with leucine at codon 89 of the BARD1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast caner (PMID: 32885271) and ovarian cancer (PMID: 26315354). In a large international breast cancer case-control meta-analysis, this variant was identified in 1/60466 cases and 4/53461 unaffected controls (PMID: 33471991). This variant has been identified in 4/281412 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. -

Variant summary: BARD1 c.266C>T (p.Pro89Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Zinc finger, RING-type (IPR001841) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 250924 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.266C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Cancer (Mu_2016, Ramus_2015) without evidence for causality. These reports 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 publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 27720647, 26315354). Four submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
