Description

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg1443*) in the BRCA1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs41293455, ExAC 0.02%). This variant has been reported in many individuals with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 16030099, 23233716, 19656415, 22798144). It is known to be a common cause of disease in the French Canadian population (PMID: 15883839, 10422801, 20694749, 11250694). This variant is also known as 4446C>T in the literature. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 17675). Loss-of-function variants in BRCA1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Description

The p.Arg1443X variant in BRCA1 has been previously reported in >100 individuals with BRCA1-associated cancers (Vézina 2005, Hall 2009). It has also been identified in 1/6614 European chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs41293455). This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 1443, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. In addition, functional studies provide some evidence that this variant results in a truncated protein (Caligo 2009). Heterozygous loss of function of the BRCA1 gene is an established disease mechanism in individuals with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC). In addition, this variant was classified as Pathogenic on April 22, 2016 by the ClinGen-approved ENIGMA expert panel (ClinVar SCV000282327.1). In summary, this variant meets our criteria to be classified as pathogenic for HBOC in an autosomal dominant manner.

Description

Variant summary: The c.4327C>T (p.Arg1443X) variant in BRCA1 gene is a nonsense mutation. The mutation is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. The variant was observed in the large and broad cohorts of the ExAC project at an allele frequency of 0.000016 (2/121390 chrs tested). This frequency does not exceed the maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in BRCA1 (0.001). The variant has been reported in multiple HBOC families and was shown to segregate with disease phenotype. It has been classified as pathogenic by multiple reputable databases/clinical laboratories. Taken together, the variant was classified as Pathogenic.
