The NM_007294.4(BRCA1):c.3797G>T(p.Ser1266Ile) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. S1266T) has been classified as Benign.
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]

The p.S1266I variant (also known as c.3797G>T or3916G>T), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 3797. The serine at codon 1266 is replaced by isoleucine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This variant was not reported in population based cohorts in the following databases: Database of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (dbSNP), NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), and 1000 Genomes Project. This amino acid position is moderately conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be benign and deleterious by PolyPhen and SIFT in silico analyses, respectively.Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance ofp.S1266Iremains unclear. -

This missense variant replaces serine with isoleucine at codon 1266 of the BRCA1 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

This variant is denoted BRCA1 c.3797G>T at the cDNA level, p.Ser1266Ile (S1266I) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Serine to an Isoleucine (AGC>ATC). Using alternate nomenclature, this variant would be defined as BRCA1 3916G>T. This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. BRCA1 Ser1266Ile was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, suggesting it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Since Serine and Isoleucine differ in polarity, charge, size or other properties, this is considered a non-conservative amino acid substitution. BRCA1 Ser1266Ile occurs at a position that is not conserved and is not located in a known functional domain (UniProt, Paul 2014). In silico analyses are inconsistent regarding the effect this variant may have on protein structure and function. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether BRCA1 Ser1266Ile is pathogenic or benign. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -
