Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
This missense variant replaces arginine with tryptophan at codon 658 of the BRIP1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with ovarian cancer (PMID: 26329992), but also in unaffected individuals (PMID: 26315354, 26329992). This variant has been identified in 1/31396 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. -
The p.R658W variant (also known as c.1972C>T), located in coding exon 13 of the BRIP1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1972. The arginine at codon 658 is replaced by tryptophan, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. In one study, this variant was observed in 0/3236 invasive epithelial ovarian cancer patients and in 1/3431 control patients of European origin; this control was heterozygous for the variant (Ramus SJ et al. J. Natl. Cancer Inst. 2015 Nov;107). This alteration has also been reported in 1/1120 pediatric cancer patients who underwent whole genome sequencing and/or whole exome sequencing; this patient had acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Zhang J et al. N. Engl. J. Med. 2015 Dec;373:2336-46). This amino acid position is well 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. -
Familial cancer of breast Uncertain:2

This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance as there is insufficient evidence to determine its impact on protein function and/or cancer risk. -
Familial cancer of breast;C1836860:Fanconi anemia complementation group J Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 658 of the BRIP1 protein (p.Arg658Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs786203170, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (PMID: 26580448). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 186720). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on BRIP1 protein function. 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. -

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; Observed in an individual with acute lymphocytic leukemia (PMID: 26580448); Not observed in any cases, but was observed in unaffected controls in a serous ovarian cancer study (PMID: 26315354); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 26580448, 26315354) -
