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 missense variant replaces serine with phenylalanine at codon 1722 in the BRCT1 domain of the BRCA1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Multiple functional studies have consistently shown that this variant results in the loss of transcription activation function of BRCA1 protein (PMID: 12496477, 15172985, 20516115, 30765603). This variant has been reported in at least six individuals affected with hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 22476429, 33526602; Color internal data). An external laboratory has concluded this variant to be Pathogenic based on analysis of personal and family history of 44 probands (PMID: 25085752). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

The c.5165C>T (p.Ser1722Phe) variant in the BRCA1 gene has been reported in two patients in the Breast Cancer Information Core database (accession number 10462 and 10461). The variant has also been reported in additional patients by clinical laboratories in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/55441). Functional assays showed a strong deleterious effect [PMID 20516115]. This variant was not observed in the ExAC database. Serine at amino acid position 1722 of the BRCA1 protein is conserved in mammals. Although not validated for clinical use, computer-based algorithms SIFT and Polyphen2 predict this p.Ser1722Phe change to be deleterious. This variant thus classified as likely pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1722 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Ser1722Phe). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 22476429, 28888541, 30093976, 35264596). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 55441). 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 expected to disrupt BRCA1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects BRCA1 function (PMID: 12496477, 20516115). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: BRCA1 c.5165C>T (p.Ser1722Phe) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the first BRCT domain (IPR001357) that binds ATM-phosphorylated proteins (e.g. abraxas, CtIP and BRIP1; see PMID 22193408). Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 251036 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.5165C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals with personal and/or family history of breast- and ovarian cancer (Judkins_2005, Lu_2012, Chan_2018, Lynce_2020). Publications also reported experimental evidence, demonstrating decreased structural stability, impaired phosphopeptide binding and transcriptional activity (Lee_2010); and in a recent high throughput genome editing assay the variant resulted in a decreased (intermediate) function when testing it in a haploid human cell line whose survival is dependent on intact BRCA1 function (Findlay_2018). Ten other clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic (n=2) or likely pathogenic (n=8). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

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

The p.Ser1722Phe variant in BRCA1 has been reported in at least 3 individual with breast cancer (Lu 2012, Breast Information Core (BIC) database). In addition, this variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID 55441) and was absent from large population databases. Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that this variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In vitro functional studies support an impact on protein function (Lee 2010, Carvalho 2002 ). In addition, this variant lies within a binding motif in BRCA1. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for autosomal dominant Hereditary breast and ovarian cancer.

PM2_Supporting, PP3 c.5165C>T, located in exon 18 (19 according BIC nomenclature) of the BRCA1 gene, is predicted to result in the substitution of serine by phenylalanine at codon 1722, p.(Ser1722Phe). It is not present in the population database gnomAD v2.1.1, non cancer dataset (PM2_supporting). The variant, located in a (potentially) clinically important functional domain of BRCA1, is predicted to not have a significant impact on splicing by Splice AI and the BayesDel_noAF predictor score for this variant (0.4229) suggests a deleterious effect on protein function (PP3). However, it was reported by two or more calibrated studies with discordant results: Functional effect similar to pathogenic control variants (PMID:30765603) and between what was observed for benign and pathogenic control variants (PMID: 30209399), so PS3 and BS3 is not met. Moreover, several cases affected of breast and/or ovarian cancer carrying the variant are reported in the literature (PMID: 22476429, 33526602, 30093976, 30875412, 30264118, 35264596 and 2 internal cases), but there are no publications reporting cases of FA or cosegregations. In addition, the variant was also identified in the following databases: BRCA Exchange (Not yet reviewed), ClinVar (2x uncertain significance, 11x likely pathogenic, 7x pathogenic) and LOVD (2x uncertain significance, 1x pathogenic). Based on the currently available information, c.5165C>T is classified as an uncertain significance variant according to ClinGen-BRCA1 Guidelines version v1.0.0. -

The p.S1722F pathogenic mutation (also known as c.5165C>T), located in coding exon 17 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 5165. The serine at codon 1722 is replaced by phenylalanine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. Based on multiple structural and functional analyses, this alteration was shown to significantly alter protease sensitivity, peptide binding activity, peptide binding specificity, and transcriptional activity of the mutant protein compared to wild type (Mirkovic N et al. Cancer Res. 2004 Jun;64:3790-7; Lee MS et al. Cancer Res. 2010 Jun;70:4880-90). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

The BRCA1 p.Ser1722Ph variant falls within the BRCA1 C-terminus (BRCT) domain and was shown, in a yeast based transcription activation assay, to be temperature sensitive whereby activity was abolished at 37oC, and therefore likely represents a cancer-associated variant (Carvalho 2002). Lee et al (2010) used 3 biochemical and cell-based transcriptional assays to show that the variant had a strong functional effect and is likely associated with increased cancer risk. Other functional/computational models validated by such biochemical assays have also shown the variant to be deleterious (Mirkovic 2004, Karchin 2007). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs80357104) “With other allele”, but no frequency information was provided, the variant was not identified in NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (Exome Variant Server), Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC) or the 1000 Genomes Browser. The variant was present in the Clinvitae database, the ClinVar database (with conflicting interpretations of pathogenicity: classified as pathogenic by Sharing Clinical Reports Project derived from Myriad reports; uncertain significance by BIC, and classification not provided by Invitae), Fanconi Anemia Mutation Database (LOVD), COSMIC (1x in a cervical tissue/squamous cell carcinoma), the BIC database (2X with unknown clinical importance), and UMD (1X with a 3-UV ”unclassified variant”). The p.Ser1722 residue is conserved across mammals and most other organisms, and four out of five computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) suggest that the Phe variant may impact the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information, this variant meets our laboratory’s criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic. -
