Ambry Genetics RCV000220648 SCV000274676 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-10-31 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.V419L variant (also known as c.1255G>C), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 1255. The valine at codon 419 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration was identified in an individual with a personal and family history of breast cancer (Carney ME et al. Hawaii Med J 2010 Nov; 69(11):268-71). This amino acid position is not 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.
Invitae RCV000467786 SCV000549387 uncertain significance Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2023-10-13 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 419 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Val419Leu). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 21218378). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 230967). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA1 protein function. 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.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000587670 SCV000698841 uncertain significance not provided 2016-06-10 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: The BRCA1 c.1255G>C (p.Val419Leu) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. 3/5 in silico tools predict a benign outcome; functional studies had not been published at the time of variant classification. This variant was absent in 121208 control chromosomes, but was reported in one breast cancer patient diagnosed at 72 years old without evidence of causality (i.e. co-segregation data). Additionally, one clinical lab classified the variant as a VUS. Taken together, the variant was classified as a variant of uncertain significance (VUS) until additional information becomes available.

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000220648 SCV001360193 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-11-29 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces valine with leucine at codon 419 of the BRCA1 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been detected in a breast cancer case-control meta-analysis in 0/60466 cases and 2/53461 unaffected individuals (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA1_006522), and it has also been reported in an individual affected with breast or ovarian cancer (PMID: 28364669). 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.

Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System RCV000502439 SCV000591321 uncertain significance Malignant tumor of breast no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The p.Leu419Val variant has been reported in the literature in 1 of 546 proband chromosomes in an individual with breast cancer with late onset (Carney_2010). However, population controls were not included in this study, and so the prevalence of this variant in the general population is not known. The p.Leu419 residue is not well conserved in mammals and computational analyses (SIFT, Polyphen, AlignGVGD) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein. But this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance.
