Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
This variant causes a G to A nucleotide substitution at the +5 position of intron 11 of the BMPR1A gene. Splice site prediction tools predict that this variant may have a significant impact on RNA splicing, however this prediction has not been confirmed in published RNA studies. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has not been identified 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. -
The c.1342+5G>A intronic variant results from a G to A substitution 5 nucleotides after coding exon 9 in the BMPR1A gene. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration may result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice donor site; however, direct evidence is insufficient at this time (Ambry internal data). Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Polyposis syndrome, hereditary mixed, 2 Uncertain:1

not provided Uncertain:1
This variant is denoted BMPR1A c.1342+5G>A or IVS11+5G>A and consists of a G>A nucleotide substitution at the +5 position of intron 11 of the BMPR1A gene. Multiple in silico models predict this variant to destroy the nearby natural donor site, and to possibly cause abnormal gene splicing; however, in the absence of RNA or functional studies, the actual effect of this variant is unknown. This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. BMPR1A c.1342+5G>A was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, suggesting it is not a common benign variant in these populations. The guanine (G) nucleotide that is altered is not conserved across species. Based on currently available information, it is unclear whether BMPR1A c.1342+5G>A is pathogenic or benign. -
Juvenile polyposis syndrome Uncertain:1
This sequence change falls in intron 11 of the BMPR1A gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the BMPR1A protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BMPR1A-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 239855). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. 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. -
