Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:3
Variant summary: BRCA1 c.547+1G>T is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Five predict the variant abolishes a 5' splicing donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant was absent in 246214 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.547+1G>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer (Rebbeck_2018, Li_2016, Evans_2003). 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. Four ClinVar submissions from clinical diagnostic laboratories (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as pathogenic (2x) and twice as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 7 of the BRCA1 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in BRCA1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 12960223, 22333603, 26534844). This variant is also known as c.666+1G>T. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 55590). Based on a multifactorial likelihood algorithm using genetic, in silico, and/or statistical data, this variant has been determined to have a high probability of being pathogenic (PMID: 31131967). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The BRCA1 c.547+1G>T variant disrupts a canonical splice-donor site and interferes with normal BRCA1 mRNA splicing. This variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals and families with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 12960223 (2003), 22333603 (2012), 26534844 (2016)). This variant was also reported as being pathogenic in a multifactorial likelihood study (PMID: 31131967 (2019)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000004 (1/251436 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is consistent with pathogenicity. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
Canonical splice site variant predicted to result in a null allele in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; Observed in individuals with a personal or family history consistent with pathogenic variants in this gene (Evans 2003, Jorge 2020); Not observed in large population cohorts (Lek 2016); Truncating variants in this gene are considered pathogenic by a well-established clinical consortium and/or database; Also known as 666+1G>T; IVS8+1G>T; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25525159, 12960223, 29446198, 31883735, 31131967, 32918181, 31360904) -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2
This variant causes a G>T nucleotide substitution at the +1 position of intron 7 of the BRCA1 gene. Splice site prediction tools predict that this variant may have a significant impact on RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in suspected hereditary breast/ovarian cancer families (PMID: 12960223, 26534844, 29446198). A multifactorial analysis reported this variant as pathogenic based in part on segregation and tumor pathology likelihood ratios of 1.9487 and 1.67, respectively (PMID: 31131967). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BRCA1 function is a known mechanism of disease. Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
The c.547+1G>T intronic pathogenic mutation results from a G to T substitution one nucleotide after coding exon 6 of the BRCA1 gene. This alteration was previously reported in families with HBOC (Evans DG et al. J. Med. Genet. 2003 Sep; 40(9):e107; Rebbeck TR et al. Hum. Mutat. 2018 May;39:593-620). This alteration was also classified as pathogenic in a multifactorial model of variant interpretation that incorporates co-segregation, family history, co-occurrence, tumor pathology and case-control data (Parsons MT et al. Hum Mutat 2019 09;40(9):1557-1578). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in abnormal splicing in the set of samples tested (Ambry internal data). A close match alteration at the same canonical donor site, BRCA1 c.547+2T>A, also causes skipping of coding exon 6 (designated as exon 8 in the literature) which will produce an out-of-frame transcript with a predicted premature stop codon (Pyne MT et al. Mutat. Res. 1999 Aug;406:101-7; Houdayer C et al. Hum. Mutat. 2012 Aug;33:1228-38; Colombo M et al. PLoS ONE 2013 Feb;8:e57173). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation -
