Variant summary
Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -7 ACMG points: 0P and 7B. BP4_ModerateBS1_SupportingBS2
The NM_000465.4(BARD1):c.1148T>A(p.Met383Lys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000266 in 1,613,950 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 17/23 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. M383I) has been classified as Likely benign.

not provided Uncertain:3
The BARD1 c.1148T>A (p.Met383Lys) variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals with breast cancer (PMIDs: 31871109 (2019) and 32959997 (2020)), an individual with ovarian cancer (PMID: 34326862 (2021)), as well as in an individual with both ovarian and pancreatic cancers (PMID: 32885271 (2021)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.0000071 (2/282650 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 benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
BP4, PM2 -
Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Observed in individuals with breast cancer (Adedokun et al., 2020; Uyisenga et al., 2020); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 32959997, 31871109) -
Familial cancer of breast Uncertain:3
This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 383 of the BARD1 protein (p.Met383Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs763596413, gnomAD 0.008%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 32959997, 35402282). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 185039). 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 tolerated. 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. -
This missense variant replaces methionine with lysine at codon 383 of the BARD1 protein. This variant has been identified in 2/282650 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 32959997, 35402282).In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function.Functional studies have not been reported for this variant.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. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1Benign:1
This missense variant replaces methionine with lysine at codon 383 of the BARD1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact 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 cancer (PMID: 32959997, 35402282). This variant has been identified in 2/282650 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. -
This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
Familial ovarian cancer Uncertain:1
The BARD1 p.Met383Lys variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in the Cosmic, MutDB, or Zhejiang University databases. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs763596413) as "With Uncertain significance allele" and ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by Ambry Genetics, Invitae, Color Genomics, and one other clinical laboratory). The variant was identified in control databases in 2 of 276950 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.000007 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017), specifically in the African population in 2 of 24030 chromosomes (freq: 0.000083), while the variant was not observed in the Other, Latino, European, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, Finnish, or South Asian populations. The p.Met383 residue is not conserved in mammals and four out of five computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) 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. -
