Invitae | RCV001032474 | SCV001195781 | pathogenic | Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome | 2019-10-29 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is a gross deletion of the genomic region encompassing non-coding exon 1 and exons 2-3 of the BRCA1 gene, which includes the initiator codon. The 5' end of this event is unknown as it extends beyond the assayed region for this gene and therefore may encompass additional genes. The 3' boundary is likely confined to intron 3 of the BRCA1 gene. This is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Deletion of exons 1-3 has been observed in individuals affected with breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 15951958). Loss-of-function variants in BRCA1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. |
