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]

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This frameshifting variant in exon 10 of 24 introduces a premature stop codon and is therefore predicted to result in loss of normal protein function. This variant is reported as a pathogenic variant in a single publication (PMID: 28152038) and multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories in ClinVar have classified this variant as a pathogenic change for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome (Variation ID: 37483). It is present in the heterozygous state in the gnomAD population database at a frequency of 0.0008% (2/250830) and thus is presumed to be rare. Based on the available evidence, the c.2706_2707dup (p.Cys903TyrfsTer98) variant is classified as pathogenic. -

Ambry Genetics
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.2706_2707dupAT pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a duplication of AT at nucleotide position 2706, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.C903Yfs*98). 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. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant inserts 2 nucleotides in exon 10 of the BRCA1 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been identified in 2/250830 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. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This frameshift variant alters the translational reading frame of the BRCA1 mRNA and causes the premature termination of BRCA1 protein synthesis. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000018 (2/113274 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is consistent with pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in an individual with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 31447099 (2019)), as well as in an individual with a paraganglioma (PMID: 29625052 (2018)). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Cys903Tyrfs*98) 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 (rs80357717, gnomAD 0.002%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRCA1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37483). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.Cys903TyrfsX98 variant in BRCA1 has been reported in at least 2 individuals with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC; Breast Cancer Information Core (BIC) database: https://research.nhgri.nih.gov/bic/, Rady Children's Hospital: ClinVar SCV000996213.1). This variant has also been identified in 0.001% (1/68030) of European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org, v.3.1). This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 903 and leads to a premature termination codon 98 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 for HBOC. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant HBOC.
