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]

This nonsense variant causes the premature termination of BRCA1 protein synthesis. This variant has been reported in individuals with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer in the published literature (PMID: 21523855 (2011), 12879478 (2003)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000029 (1/34560 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is consistent with pathogenicity.

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.E1339* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.4015G>T), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 4015. This changes the amino acid from a glutamic acid to a stop codon within coding exon 9. 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. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: The BRCA1 c.4015G>T (p.Glu1339X) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent BRCA1 protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (e.g. c.4035delA (p.Glu1346fsX20), c.4041_4042delAG (p.Gly1348fsX7), and c.4065_4068delTCAA (p.Asn1355fsX10)). This variant is absent in 121374 control chromosomes, suggesting that it is not a common, benign variant. The variant of interest has been reported in affected individuals via publications (Judkins_2005 and Mullineaux_2003). In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is 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.Glu1339*) 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 present in population databases (rs80357021, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 12879478). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37559). RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this premature translational stop signal on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (internal data). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
