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.2935C>T (p.Arg979Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.4e-05 in 251168 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.2935C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with breast/ovarian cancer (e.g. Anczukow_2008, Judkins_2005) and has recently been classified as IARC class 1 (Benign) based upon the French national COVAR (cosegregation variant) study that utilized a multifactorial model combining different associations between VUSs and cancer, including cosegregation data (Caputo_2021). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. At-least one co-occurrence with another pathogenic variant(s) have been reported in the UMD database (BRCA2 c.771_775delTCAAA, p.Asn257LysfsX17), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. 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: 16267036, 16518693, 24728327, 23704879, 23893897, 18273839, 31112341, 31294896, 34749799, 34597585). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 54727). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

Significance:Likely benign

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -
