Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.3e-05 in 252224 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in BRCA1 causing Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (8.3e-05 vs 0.001), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1789G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (example, Judkins_2005, Lee_2008, Easton_2007, Borg_2010, Capanu_2011, Spearman_2008, Alsop_2012, Lu_2012, Maxwell_2014, Zhang_2015). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. Multifactorial probability models predict a neutral outcome (Lindor_2012). At-least one co-occurrence with another pathogenic variant has been reported in the BIC database (BRCA2 c.6373_6374insA, p.Thr2125?fs), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories and one expert panel (ENIGMA) have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All submitters classified the variant as benign/likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign.

Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System	RCV001354113	SCV001548646	uncertain significance	Malignant tumor of breast		no assertion criteria provided	clinical testing	The BRCA1 p.Glu597Lys variant was identified in 7 of 7414 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.0009) from individuals or families with breast cancer (Goidescu 2017, Momozawa 2018, Johnston 2012, Borg 2010, Lee 2008) and was identified in 6 of 48666 chromosomes (frequency: 0) from healthy individuals. In silico prediction models looking at causality likelihood ratios and posterior probability suggest the variant is neutral/not pathogenic (Easton 2007, Lindor 2012). The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs55650082) “With Pathogenic, other allele”, ClinVar (classified benign, reviewed by an expert panel (2015); submitters: benign by ENIGMA, Ambry Genetics; likely benign by Color, Integrated Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, Invitae, GeneDx, SCRP and Pathway Genomics; uncertain significance by BIC and Biesecker Lab/Human Development Section (NIH)), LOVD 3.0 (1x), BIC Database (16X with unknown clinical importance, pending classification) and ARUP Laboratories (classified as 1 - not pathogenic or of no clinical significance). The variant was not identified in UMD-LSDB database. The variant was also identified in control databases in 22 of 276862 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00008 increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017), observed in the following populations: African in 3 of 23996 chromosomes (freq: 0.0001), European Non-Finnish in 18 of 126494 chromosomes (freq: 0.0001), and South Asian in 1 of 30778 chromosomes (freq: 0.00003) while not observed in the Other, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian and European Finnish populations. The p.Glu597 residue is not conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein; this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. 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 uncertain significance.
