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]

Variant summary: BRCA1 c.303T>G (p.Tyr101X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant was absent in 250608 control chromosomes. c.303T>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. 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: 22034289, 17591842, 18679828). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 54758). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Tyr101*) in the BRCA1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BRCA1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 17221156, 18679828, 26681312). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 54758). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The p.Y101* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.303T>G), located in coding exon 5 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a T to G substitution at nucleotide position 303. This changes the amino acid from a tyrosine to a stop codon within coding exon 5. This pathogenic mutation has been described as a Nigerian founder mutation in individuals of Yoruban ancestry (Zhang B et al. Fam. Cancer 2009; 8(1):15-22; Zhang J et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2012 Jul; 134(2):889-94; Fackenthal JD et al. Int. J. Cancer 2012 Sep; 131(5):1114-23). It has also been reported in multiple HBOC families (Rebbeck TR et al. Hum Mutat. 2018 May;39(5):593-620; Veschi S et al. Ann. Oncol. 2007 Jun; 18 (Suppl 6):vi86-92; Russo A et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2007 Nov; 105(3):267-76). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

This variant replaces tyrosine with a translation stop signal at codon 101 of the BRCA1 protein. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in over ten individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 17221156, 17221156, 18679828, 22739995, 26681312, 31125277, 18679828). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BRCA1 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
