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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Sep 02, 2022	Variant summary: BRCA1 c.3626delT (p.Leu1209X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the 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. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251268 control chromosomes. c.3626delT has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (e.g. Li_2019, Xu_2021). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Three 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. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Nov 08, 2023	This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu1209*) 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 (rs80357571, gnomAD 0.0009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 9361038, 28802053). This variant is also known as 3744 delT. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 54943). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The c.3626delT pathogenic mutation (also known as p.L1209*), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at position 3626. This changes the amino acid from a leucine to a stop codon within coding exon 9. This pathogenic mutation has been observed in numerous breast and breast/ovarian cancer families, and is considered a founder mutation in Finland (Zelada-Hedman M et al. Cancer Res. 1997 Jun; 57(12):2474-7; Vehmanen P et al. Hum. Mol. Genet. 1997 Dec; 6(13):2309-15; Huusko P et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 1998 Jun; 62(6):1544-8; Sarantaus L et al. Eur. J. Hum. Genet. 2000 Oct; 8(10):757-63; Pelttari LM et al. Clin. Genet. 2018 Mar;93(3):595-602). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 3744delT and 3745delT in published literature. In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, 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. -
