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 testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpApr 22, 2016Variant summary: The BRCA1 c.3756_3759delGTCT variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent BRCA1 protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are a commonly known mechanism for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (e.g. p.Gln1756fs). Mutation Taster predicts a damaging outcome for this variant. This variant was found in 3/121438 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000247, which does not exceed maximal expected frequency of a pathogenic BRCA1 allele (0.0010005). The variant has been cited in multiple HBOC patients in the literature. In addition, multiple clinical laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant was classified as pathogenic. -

In addition, this variant was classified as Pathogenic on April 22, 2016 by the ClinGen-approved ENIGMA expert panel (ClinVar VCV000017673.2). This variant has been identified in 0.004% (5/113572) of European chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 1253 and leads to a premature termination codon 10 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 hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer in an autosomal dominant manner. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PS4. -

This recurrent mutation has been detected in multiple hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) syndrome families globally (Castilla LH et al. Nat. Genet. 1994 Dec;8:387-91; Zhang S et al. Gynecol.

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. -
