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 alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

Variant summary: BRCA1 c.2726A>T (p.Asn909Ile) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00011 in 386686 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0011 within the East Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within East Asian control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 1.1 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in BRCA1 causing Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome phenotype (0.001). c.2726A>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with breast or ovarian cancer, but was also found in healthy controls (e.g., Lai, 2017, Ahmadloo, 2017, Bhaskaran_2019, Kwong_2020, Momozawa_2018, Dorling_2021, Zhang_2022). In addition, a study classified this variant as likely benign based on a multifactorial probability model (Lee_2018). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. 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: 18627636, 22217648, 27257965, 26852015, 28364669, 28179634, 12602912, 29176636, 30287823, 30702160, 28222693, 30415210, 32068069, 35918668, 33471991). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37486). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

This variant is denoted BRCA1 c.2726A>T at the cDNA level, p.Asn909Ile (N909I) at the protein level, and results in the change of an Asparagine to an Isoleucine (AAT>ATT). Using alternate nomenclature, this variant has been previously published as BRCA1 2845A>T. This variant has been observed in individuals with a personal and/or family history of breast cancer, all of whom were of Asian ancestry, and was detected in 5/2091 breast cancer cases and 4/1462 controls in a study of multi-ethnic Asian individuals (Chen 2003, Thirthagiri 2008, Jang 2012, Cao 2016, Zhong 2016, Ahmadloo 2017, Arai 2017, Lai 2017, Park 2017). BRCA1 Asn909Ile was observed at an allele frequency of 0.12% (20/17,248) in individuals of East Asian ancestry in large population cohorts (Lek 2016). This variant is located in DNA binding domain and in a region reported to interact with RAD51 (Chen 1998, Narod 2004). In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether BRCA1 Asn909Ile is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -

The BRCA1 p.Asn909Ile variant was identified in 21 of 23988 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.0009) from individuals or families with breast or ovarian cancer and was present in 18 of 25598 control chromosomes (frequency: 0.0007) from healthy individuals (Arai 2018, Bhaskaran 2019, Cao 2016, Chen 2003, Jang 2012, Lai 2017, Momozawa 2018, Thirthagiri 2008). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs80357127) as "With Uncertain significance allele", ClinVar (classified as likely benign by Invitae; and as uncertain significance by Ambry Genetics, GeneDx and seven other submitters), LOVD 3.0 (6x), and in UMD-LSDB (1x as unclassified variant). The variant was identified in control databases in 20 of 245542 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00008 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the East Asian population in 20 of 17248 chromosomes (freq: 0.001), increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant, while the variant was not observed in the African, Other, Latino, European, Ashkenazi Jewish, Finnish, or South Asian populations. The p.Asn909 residue is not conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein; this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -
