The ENST00000357654.9(BRCA1):āc.3410T>Cā(p.Met1137Thr) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000205 in 1,461,508 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 12/21 in silico tools predict 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. M1137I) has been classified as Uncertain significance.
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 variant is considered benign. This variant is strongly associated with less severe personal and family histories of cancer, typical for individuals without pathogenic variants in this gene [PMID: 25085752]. Homozygosity has been confirmed in one or more individuals. As homozygosity for pathogenic variants in this gene is generally assumed to result in embryonic lethality, this variant is unlikely to be pathogenic. -

The p.M1137T variant (also known as c.3410T>C), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 3410. The methionine at codon 1137 is replaced by threonine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration has been identified in high-risk breast/ovarian cohorts (Haffty BG et al. J. Med. Genet. 2006 Feb;43(2):133-7; Lu W et al. Fam Cancer, 2012 Sep;11:381-5). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

This missense variant replaces methionine with threonine at codon 1137 of the BRCA1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with breast cancer (PMID: 19491284) and in an individual with a family history of breast and/or ovarian cancers (PMID: 22476429). 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. -

Variant summary: BRCA1 c.3410T>C (p.Met1137Thr) 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 was absent in 250962 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.3410T>C has been reported in the literature as a VUS in individuals affected with Breast and/or Ovarian Cancer (e.g. Haffty_2006, Lu_2012). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer. 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: 16518693, 12531920, 19491284, 15983021, 22476429, 15385441, 30212499, 23704879). Six submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Five submitters classified the variant as uncertain significance, and one submitter classified the variant as likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

This missense variant replaces methionine with threonine at codon 1137 of the BRCA1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with breast cancer (PMID: 19491284) and in an individual with a family history of breast and/or ovarian cancers (PMID: 22476429). This variant also has been reported in one ore more individuals homozygous for this variant without expected clinical features if this variant were disease-causing (ClinVar SCV004186056.1). 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 sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1137 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Met1137Thr). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer or a high risk of breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 19491284, 22476429). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 54871). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
