Genes affected
BARD1 (HGNC:952): (BRCA1 associated RING domain 1) This gene encodes a protein which interacts with the N-terminal region of BRCA1. In addition to its ability to bind BRCA1 in vivo and in vitro, it shares homology with the 2 most conserved regions of BRCA1: the N-terminal RING motif and the C-terminal BRCT domain. The RING motif is a cysteine-rich sequence found in a variety of proteins that regulate cell growth, including the products of tumor suppressor genes and dominant protooncogenes. This protein also contains 3 tandem ankyrin repeats. The BARD1/BRCA1 interaction is disrupted by tumorigenic amino acid substitutions in BRCA1, implying that the formation of a stable complex between these proteins may be an essential aspect of BRCA1 tumor suppression. This protein may be the target of oncogenic mutations in breast or ovarian cancer. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -2 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.27958676).
BS2
High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 7 AD gene. Variant has AC lower than other variant known as pathogenic in the gene, so the strength is limited to Supporting.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoJan 19, 2023The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000008 (2/251362 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in an individual with Schwannomatosis (PMID: 28051113 (2017)). In a large-scale breast cancer association study, the variant was observed in an individual with breast cancer (PMID: 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/genes/BARD1)). Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign or damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxAug 16, 2023Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Observed in an individual with multiple schwannomas (Castellanos et al., 2017); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 17550235, 28051113, 35595798) -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsApr 27, 2022The p.T716A variant (also known as c.2146A>G), located in coding exon 11 of the BARD1 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 2146. The threonine at codon 716 is replaced by alanine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthDec 11, 2020This missense variant replaces threonine with alanine at codon 716 of the BARD1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with multiple schwannomas (PMID: 28051113). This variant has been identified in 2/251362 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpDec 06, 2023This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 716 of the BARD1 protein (p.Thr716Ala). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with multiple schwannomas or breast cancer (PMID: 28051113, 35595798). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 237830). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpOct 12, 2017Variant summary: The BARD1 c.2146A>G (p.Thr716Ala) variant located in the BRCT domain (via InterPro) involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide and 2/4 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant (SNPsandGO not captured due to low reliability index). However, these predictions have yet to be functionally assessed. This variant was found in 2/246126 control chromosomes (gnomAD) at a frequency of 0.0000081, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic BARD1 variant (0.0002188). A publication, Castellanos_2017, cites the variant in a pt presenting with multiple schwannomas, who also carried other potentially deleterious variants and authors classify the variant of interest as neutral. A clinical diagnostic laboratory classified this variant as uncertain significance. Taken together, this variant is classified as a "Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS)," until additional information becomes available. -
