Genes affected
BRCA1 (HGNC:1100): (BRCA1 DNA repair associated) This gene encodes a 190 kD nuclear phosphoprotein that plays a role in maintaining genomic stability, and it also acts as a tumor suppressor. The BRCA1 gene contains 22 exons spanning about 110 kb of DNA. The encoded protein combines with other tumor suppressors, DNA damage sensors, and signal transducers to form a large multi-subunit protein complex known as the BRCA1-associated genome surveillance complex (BASC). This gene product associates with RNA polymerase II, and through the C-terminal domain, also interacts with histone deacetylase complexes. This protein thus plays a role in transcription, DNA repair of double-stranded breaks, and recombination. Mutations in this gene are responsible for approximately 40% of inherited breast cancers and more than 80% of inherited breast and ovarian cancers. Alternative splicing plays a role in modulating the subcellular localization and physiological function of this gene. Many alternatively spliced transcript variants, some of which are disease-associated mutations, have been described for this gene, but the full-length natures of only some of these variants has been described. A related pseudogene, which is also located on chromosome 17, has been identified. [provided by RefSeq, May 2020]

The p.Asn329Tyr variant has not been reported in the literature nor previously identified by our laboratory. This residue is not highly conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen2, SIFT, AlignGVGD) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein and this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. It should be noted that BRCA1 variants are inherited in an autosomal dominant manner with reduced penetrance and that the expression of the disease can be influenced by other modifier genes and environmental factors. The significance of a variant should always be interpreted in the context of the individual's clinical manifestations. In addition, genetic counseling is recommended and testing of additional family members may help to understand the significance of this variant. -

The c.985A>T (p.N329Y) alteration is located in exon 10 (coding exon 9) of the BRCA1 gene. This alteration results from a A to T substitution at nucleotide position 985, causing the asparagine (N) at amino acid position 329 to be replaced by a tyrosine (Y). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

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

This missense variant replaces asparagine with tyrosine at codon 329 of the BRCA1 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with BRCA1-related disorders in the literature. This variant has been reported in 2 individuals age 70 years or older without cancer in the FLOSSIES database (https://whi.color.com/variant/17-41246563-T-A). This variant has been identified in 1/31408 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 sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 329 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Asn329Tyr). This variant is present in population databases (rs786203732, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRCA1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 187436). 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) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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. -
