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]

The c.5152+5G>T intronic variant results from a G to T substitution five nucleotides after coding exon 16 in the BRCA1 gene. This variant was not reported in population based cohorts in the following databases: Database of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (dbSNP), NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), and 1000 Genomes Project. In the ESP, this variant was not observed in 6503 samples (13006 alleles) with coverage at this position. To date, this alteration has been detected with an allele frequency of approximately 0.0004% (greater than 225000 alleles tested) in our clinical cohort. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. Using the BDGP and ESEfinder splice site prediction tools, this alteration is predicted to abolish the native splice donor site. RNA studies have demonstrated this alteration results in abnormal splicing (Ambry internal data). Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -

Variant summary: BRCA1 c.5152+5G>T alters a conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Four predict the variant abolishes a 5 splicing donor site. At least one publication reports that this variant results in skipping of exon 18 (Farber-Katz_2018). The variant was absent in 251212 control chromosomes (gnomAD) but has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (Farber-Katz_2018, Song_2014). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. Other nucleotide changes in this position (c.5152+5G>C, c.5152+5G>A) has been reported as pathogenic in ClinVar and HGMD. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant, however no classification is provided (Variation ID: 867708). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
