Familial cancer of breast Pathogenic:2
- -
This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant creates a frameshift predicted to result in premature protein truncation. -
Familial cancer of breast;C1836860:Fanconi anemia complementation group J Pathogenic:1
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp1002Leufs*60) in the BRIP1 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 248 amino acid(s) of the BRIP1 protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs763443434, gnomAD 0.008%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRIP1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 186335). This variant disrupts a region of the BRIP1 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Asn1006*) have been determined to be pathogenic (internal data). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
BRIP1-related disorder Pathogenic:1
The BRIP1 c.3004_3005insTGACAGCT variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Trp1002Leufs*60). This frameshift variant is located in the last exon of BRIP1; thus this variant is not expected to result in nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. However loss of function variants downstream of this variant have been reported in BRIP1 associated disorders indicating the truncated region is important (example, Ramus. 2015. PubMed ID: 26315354). This variant is reported in 0.0080% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic or likely pathogenic in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/186335/). This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. -
not provided Pathogenic:1
This frameshift variant alters the translational reading frame of the BRIP1 mRNA and causes the premature termination of BRIP1 protein synthesis. The variant has not been reported in the published literature. However, a different, but related frameshift variant was identified in a family affected with breast cancer and it was shown to be unstable (PMID: 18628483 (2008)). The frequency of the c.3004_3005insTGACAGCT variant in the general population, 0.0000071 (2/282596 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is consistent with pathogenicity. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
The c.3004_3005insTGACAGCT pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 19 of the BRIP1 gene, results from an insertion of 8 nucleotides at position 3004, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.W1002Lfs*60). Premature stop codons are typically deleterious in nature; however, this stop codon occurs at the 3' terminus of BRIP1, is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, and impacts only the last 248 amino acids of the protein. The exact functional impact of these removed amino acids is unknown at this time; however, the C-terminal region of the protein has been shown by structural, biochemical, and mutational analysis to be relevant for the protein function (Leung CC et al. J. Biol. Chem. 2011 Feb; 286(6):4292-301. Xie J et al. PLoS Genet. 2012 Jul; 8(7):e1002786; Gong Z et al. Mol. Cell, 2010 Feb;37:438-46). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
