ClinGen ENIGMA BRCA1 and BRCA2 Variant Curation Expert Panel, ClinGen RCV000077501 SCV004101417 pathogenic Breast-ovarian cancer, familial, susceptibility to, 1 2023-10-10 reviewed by expert panel curation The c.191G>A variant in BRCA1 is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of Cysteine by Tyrosine at amino acid 64 (p.Cys64Tyr). This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 (exomes only, non-cancer subset, read depth >=25) and gnomAD v3.1 (non-cancer subset, read depth >=25) (PM2_Supporting met). This BRCA1 missense variant is within a key functional domain and the computational predictor BayesDel (noAF) gives a score of 0.557, above the recommended threshold of 0.28 for prediction of impact on BRCA1 function via protein change. SpliceAI predictor score of 0.00 suggests that the variant has no impact on splicing (score threshold <0.10) (PP3 met). Reported by one calibrated study to exhibit protein function similar to pathogenic control variants (PMID: 30209399) (PS3 met). Multifactorial likelihood ratio analysis using clinically calibrated data produced a combined LR for this variant of 17239845573264 (based on Cosegregation LR=5300394; Pathology LR=189; Family History LR=17201), above the threshold for Very strong evidence towards pathogenicity (>350) (PP4_Very strong met; PMID: 31131967). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as a Pathogenic variant for BRCA1-related cancer predisposition based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied as specified by the ENIGMA BRCA1/2 VCEP (PM2_Supporting, PP3, PS3, PP4_Very strong).
Invitae RCV000047641 SCV000075654 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2023-11-27 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 64 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Cys64Tyr). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer and breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 15131401, 18489799, 19949876, 22034289, 23397983, 25085752). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 54400). Advanced modeling performed at Invitae incorporating data from internal and/or published experimental studies (PMID: 30209399) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt BRCA1 function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects BRCA1 function (PMID: 7894491, 8944023, 11320250, 11526114, 19287957, 23161852, 24516540). RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this missense change on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (Invitae). This variant disrupts the p.Cys64 amino acid residue in BRCA1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 8944023, 11526114). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Ambry Genetics RCV000131896 SCV000186951 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2021-08-30 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.C64Y pathogenic mutation (also known as c.191G>A), located in coding exon 3 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 191. The cysteine at codon 64 is replaced by tyrosine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. The p.C64Y mutation has been detected in multiple families with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (Shih H et al. Clin Cancer Res. 2000;6:4259-4264; Machackova E et al. BMC Cancer 2008;8:140; Stegel V et al. BMC Med. Genet. 2011;12:9; Zhang J et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2012 Jul;134(2):889-94; Krajc M et al. Clin. Genet. 2014 Jan; 85(1):59-63; Cvelbar M et al. Radiol Oncol. 2017 Jun;51:187-194; Arai M et al. J. Hum. Genet. 2018 Apr;63(4):447-457; Carter NJ et al. Gynecol Oncol. 2018 12;151:481-488). This alteration is located in the highly conserved 5' RING domain and has been shown to result in abolished ubiquitin protein ligase activity (Ruffner H et al.Proc Natl Acad Sci USA. 2001 Apr 24;98(9):5134-9). One functional study found that this nucleotide substitution is functional/non-functional in a high-throughput, genome editing, haploid cell survival assay (Findlay GM et al. Nature. 2018 10;562:217-222). Additionally, another alteration impacting this codon, p.C64G, has been reported as pathogenic (Caleca L et al. PLoS One. 2014 Mar;9:e86924). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.

Functional studies have reported that this variant impacts BRCA1 function in ubiquitin ligase, BARD1 binding, haploid cell proliferation and yeast colony size assays (PMID: 11320250, 12732733, 25823446, 27272900, 30209399). This variant has been reported in over 10 individuals affected with breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 9699523, 11015464, 14760071, 15131401, 22034289, 23192404) and in suspected hereditary breast and ovarian cancer families (PMID:18489799, 19949876, 23397983). This variant also has been reported to have segregation and tumor pathology likelihood ratios for pathogenicity of 5300394 and 189, respectively (PMID: 31131967). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000047641 SCV000918679 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2021-03-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: BRCA1 c.191G>A (p.Cys64Tyr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the RING domain of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 250804 control chromosomes. c.191G>A has been widely reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (example, Rebbeck_2018). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Several publications report experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function (example, Findlay_2018). The most pronounced variant effect results in a loss of homology directed repair (HDR) activity. Multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories, a consortium (CIMBA) and an 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 pathogenic (n=9 including the expert panel)/likely pathogenic (n=1). Some submitters cite overlapping evidence utilized in the context of this evaluation. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

This sequence change replaces cysteine with tyrosine at codon 64 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Cys64Tyr). The cysteine residue is highly conserved and there is a large physicochemical difference between cysteine and tyrosine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has been reported to segregate with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer in two families (PMID: 15131401), and has been observed in numerous individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 22034289, 23397983, 18489799, 19949876, 25085752). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 54400). Experimental studies have shown that this missense change abolishes E3 ubiquitin ligase activity (PMID: 11320250). This missense change is located at a functionally conserved residue within the RING domain of the BRCA1 protein (PMID: 8944023, 11526114), and a significant number of previously reported BRCA1 missense mutations have been found at this residue (PMID: 7894491, 19287957, 24516540, 23161852). Based on multifactorial likelihood algorithms using individuals' personal and family history of cancer, this variant has been determined to have a high probability of being pathogenic (PMID: 25085752, 18418466). Therefore, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic .
