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]

Variant summary: BRCA1 c.3228_3229delAG (p.Gly1077AlafsX8) 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. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 250376 control chromosomes. c.3228_3229delAG has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (e.g. Papi_2009, Moller_2007). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. 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: 18821011, 17574839). Multiple submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gly1077Alafs*8) 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 (rs80357635, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 11720839, 14522380, 15477862, 16030099, 17574839, 17591843, 18819001, 18821011, 19837273, 19941167, 20104584, 22798144, 24549055, 26350514). It is commonly reported in individuals of Norwegian ancestry (PMID: 11720839, 14522380, 15477862, 16030099, 17574839, 17591843, 18819001, 18821011, 19837273, 19941167, 20104584, 22798144, 24549055, 26350514). This variant is also known as 3347delAG and c.3228delAG. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37516). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The c.3228_3229del (p.Gly1077Alafs*8) variant in the BRCA1 gene is located on exon 10 and introduces an early stop codon. It is predicted to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 11720839, 14522380, 14531499, 15477862, 16030099, 17574839, 17591843, 18819001, 18821011, 19837273, 19941167, 20104584, 22798144, 24549055, 26350514, 27425403, 28637432, 28724667, 29371908, 32438681, 33403015, 33471991, 34072659). This variant is a founder mutation in Norwegian and Italian populations (PMID: 17591843, 18821011). The variant is reported in ClinVar as pathogenic (ID: 37516) and reviewed by the expert panel. This variant is rare (1/250376 chromosomes) in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Truncating variants in BRCA1 gene are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 21989022, 17661172, 22762150). Therefore, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

The c.3228_3229delAG pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a deletion of two nucleotides at nucleotide positions 3228 to 3229, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.G1077Afs*8). This mutation has been reported in multiple individuals/families with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) syndrome (Aretini P et al. Breast Cancer Res Treat, 2003 Sep;81:71-9; Bjørge T et al.

Cancers (Basel), 2020 May;12; Incorvaia L et al. Ther Adv Med Oncol, 2020 Dec;12). Due to its prevalence in Norway and Tuscany, this alteration has also been recognized as a founder mutation in these two populations (Møller P et al. Eur. J. Cancer. 2001 Dec;37:2428-34; Papi L et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2009 Oct;117:497-504). Of note, this alteration is also designated as c.3226_3227delAG, 3347delAG and 3345delAG in the 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. -
