Ambry Genetics RCV000131894 SCV000186949 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-04-27 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.L639* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1916T>A), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a T to A substitution at nucleotide position 1916. This changes the amino acid from a leucine to a stop codon within coding exon 9. This pathogenic variant has been reported in numerous families diagnosed with breast and/or ovarian cancer (Gayther SA et al. Nat. Genet.,1995 Dec;11:428-33; Hoyer J et al. BMC Cancer. 2018 Sep;18:926; Rebbeck TR et al. Hum Mutat. 2018 05;39:593-620). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
GeneDx RCV000212165 SCV000210115 pathogenic not provided 2015-04-20 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This pathogenic variant is denoted BRCA1 c.1916T>A at the cDNA level and p.Leu639Ter (L639X) at the protein level. The substitution creates a nonsense variant, which changes a Leucine to a premature stop codon (TTG>TAG), and is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This variant, also referred to as 2035T>A using alternate nomenclature, has been reported in Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer families and is considered pathogenic (Gayther 1995).

Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano RCV000212165 SCV001133503 pathogenic not provided 2019-03-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The variant creates a premature nonsense codon, and is therefore predicted to result in the loss of a functional protein. Found in at least one symptomatic patient, and not found in general population data.
Invitae RCV000496730 SCV001579952 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2024-01-18 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu639*) in the BRCA1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BRCA1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with a personal and/or family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 7493024, 29446198, 30257646). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 54399). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
