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 submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthNov 08, 2023This variant deletes 1 nucleotide in exon 10 of the BRCA1 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is also known as 4153delA and 4154delA in the literature according to the BIC nomenclature. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in many individuals affected with breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 20345474, 24770866, 29785153, 30040829) and is known to be a founder mutation in the Baltic Population (PMID: 23274591). This variant also has been detected in a breast cancer case-control meta-analysis in 11/60466 cases and 0/53461 unaffected individuals (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA1_000791). This variant has been identified in 12/282514 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BRCA1 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The p.Glu1346LysfsX20 deletion variant was identified in 176 of 22934 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.008) from individuals with prostate cancer, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, or other gynaecological tumours, and was present in 3 of 11336 control chromosomes (frequency: 0.0003) (Bayraktar 2012, Bogdanova 2010, Cybulski 2013, Elsakov 2010, Gayther 1996 8644703, Jakubowska 2008, Plakhins 2011, Tikhomirova 2005, Uglanitsa 2010). The variant is described in the literature as a founder mutation in Slavic and Baltic countries, including Poland, Belarus, Latvia, Russia, and Lithuania (Bogdanova 2010, Cybulski 2013, Elsakov 2010, Ozolina 2009, Uglanitsa 2010). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs80357711) “With pathogenic allele”, HGMD, UMD (2X as a causal variant), and the BIC database (51X as a variant with clinical importance). The p.Glu1346LysfsX20 deletion variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein's amino acid sequence beginning at codon 1346 and leads to a premature stop codon 20 codons downstream. This alteration is then predicted to result in a truncated or absent protein and loss of function. Loss of function variants of the BRCA1 gene are an established mechanism of disease in hereditary breast and ovarian cancer and is the type of variant expected to cause the disorder. In summary, based on the above information, this variant meets our laboratory’s criteria to be classified as pathogenic. -

The variant is reported as pathogenic by several sources in the ClinVar database (Variation ID: 37560) and is listed in the non-Finnish European population with an allele frequency of 0.009% (12/129,020 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. This variant causes a frameshift by deleting a single nucleotide, so it is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Bogdanova NV et al.

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:5
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpOct 21, 2022Variant summary: BRCA1 c.4035delA (p.Glu1346LysfsX20) 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 2.8e-05 in 253150 control chromosomes. c.4035delA has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (Gorski_2004, Bogdanova_2010, Rebbeck_2018). 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. 21 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 submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineJul 26, 2019The p.Glu1346LysfsX20 variant in BRCA1 has been reported in >100 individuals with BRCA1-associated cancers and is a known eastern European founder mutation (Janavicius 2013, Tihomirova 2014, Breast Cancer Information Core (BIC) database: https://research.nhgri.nih.gov/bic/). This variant has been identified in 12/129020 (0.009%) of European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This frequency is low enough to be consistent with the frequency of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) in the general population. This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 1346 and leads to a premature termination codon 20 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Heterozygous loss of function of the BRCA1 gene is an established disease mechanism in individuals with HBOC. Morevoer, this variant was classified as pathogenic on April 22, 2016 by the ClinGen-approved ENIGMA expert panel (ClinVar SCV000282321.1). In summary, the p.Glu1346LysfsX20 variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant HBOC. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PS4. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 28, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu1346Lysfs*20) 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 (rs80357711, gnomAD 0.009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 15591272, 20345474, 20569256, 22032251, 23199084). This variant is also known as 4153delA and 4154delA. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37560). RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this premature translational stop signal on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (Invitae). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMay 05, 2022The c.4035delA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 4035, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.E1346Kfs*20). This mutation has been reported in numerous cases of breast and ovarian cancer (Gayther SA et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 1996 Mar;58:451-6; Elsakov P et al. Clin. Genet. 2010 Oct;78:373-6; Uglanitsa N et al. Clin. Genet. 2010 Oct;78:377-80; Cunningham JM et al. Sci. Rep. 2014 Feb;4:4026; Maxwell KN et al. Nat. Commun. 2017 08;8:319; Heramb C et al.

Furthermore, this mutation is regarded as a founder mutation of Baltic origin, with the highest observed frequency in Lithuania (Janavicius R et al. Eur. J. Med. Genet. 2013 Mar;56:125-30). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 4154delA and 4153delA 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. -
