The variant received 11 classification points (ACMG Germline Pathogenicity v2019). PVS1PM2PP5

The NM_007294.4(BRCA1):c.594-2A>G variant causes a splice acceptor, intron change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant is predicted to lead to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). The variant has a gnomAD grpmax filtering allele frequency (95% CI) of 0.000000902, indicating it is observed in the general population. Note: a gnomAD entry for this variant shows a statistical allele-bias signature, consistent with mosaic/somatic contamination (e.g. age-related clonal hematopoiesis) rather than true inherited population frequency — this frequency should not be read as evidence of a common, benign germline variant. In-silico predictor (BayesDel (noAF)) classifies this variant as likely damaging/oncogenic. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic (no review stars).

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]

Classification according to ACMG Germline Pathogenicity v2019

Classification was made for transcript:

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 11 points.

PVS1Null variant in LOF gene
Splice site frameshift, NMD predicted, LoF disease mechanism — very strong (PVS1); Splice acceptor variant predicted to cause a frameshift, triggering NMD. Loss of function is a known disease mechanism for this gene.
PM2Absent/extremely low in population databases
Very rare in gnomAD for AD/XL gene (popmax AF < threshold/10) — PM2; GnomAD popmax AF = 0.000000902 — very rare for AD+AR gene (base 0.0001, raised to 0.000118 by highest known P/LP ClinVar AF 0.000118) — PM2 moderate.
PP5Reputable source reports pathogenic
ClinVar 0-star pathogenic — supporting (PP5); ClinVar germline classification: Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic, 0 star(s).
