Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano RCV000505828 SCV000296355 pathogenic not provided 2024-01-18 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The BRCA1 c.212+1G>A variant disrupts a canonical splice-donor site and interferes with normal BRCA1 mRNA splicing. This variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMIDs: 31454914 (2019), 28294317 (2017), 23479189 (2013), 22505045 (2012), 8533757 (1995)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000004 (1/249638 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is consistent with pathogenicity. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic.

Ambry Genetics RCV000509688 SCV000607763 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-10-19 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.212+1G>A intronic pathogenic mutation results from a G to A substitution one nucleotide after coding exon 3 of the BRCA1 gene. This mutation has been reported in multiple breast and/or ovarian cancer families (Friedman LS et al. Am J Hum Genet. 1995 Dec;57(6):1284-97; de Juan Jiménez I et al. Fam Cancer. 2013 Dec;12(4):767-77; Rebbeck TR et al. Hum. Mutat. 2018 05;39:593-620). Several studies have shown that this alteration leads to the deletion of the last 22 base pairs of coding exon 3 and creates a premature termination codon (Ambry internal data; Friedman LS et al. Am J Hum Genet. 1995 Dec;57(6):1284-97; Menéndez M et al. Breast Cancer Res Treat. 2012 Apr;132(3):979-92; Houdayer C et al. Hum Mutat. 2012 Aug;33(8):1228-38; Sanz DJ et al. Clin. Cancer Res., 2010 Mar;16:1957-67). One functional study found that this nucleotide substitution is deleterious in a high throughput genome editing haploid cell survival assay (Findlay GM et al. Nature. 2018 10;562:217-222). A multifactorial likelihood ratio analysis, which included segregation, pathology, co-occurrence, and family history data, determined that this alteration is pathogenic (Parsons MT et al. Hum. Mutat. 2019 09;40(9):1557-1578). Of note, this mutation is also designated as IVS5+1G>A in published literature. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as a disease-causing mutation.
Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000509688 SCV000683014 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2021-03-23 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant causes a G to A nucleotide substitution at the +1 position of intron 4 of the BRCA1 gene. RNA studies showed this variant resulted in the use of a cryptic splice donor site in exon 4 creating a premature translation termination signal and the in-frame skipping of exon 4 impacting the RING domain (PMID: 8533757, 20215541, 31843900). A functional study reported that this variant impacts BRCA1 function in a haploid human cell proliferation assay (PMID: 30209399). This variant has been detected in multiple individuals and families affected with breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 8533757, 20215541, 22798144, 23479189, 28294317), and has been found to segregate with disease in families with a segregation likelihood ratio for pathogenicity of 1794.1757 (PMID: 8533757, 31131967). This variant has been identified in 1/249638 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BRCA1 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000496861 SCV000918781 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2019-10-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: BRCA1 c.212+1G>A is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Five predict the variant abolishes a 5 splicing donor site. A functional study, Houdayer_2012, confirmed these predictions. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 249638 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.212+1G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer (Diez_2003, Lang_2017, Kim_2012, Rebbeck_2018). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Five ClinVar submissions (evaluation after 2014) cites the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000496861 SCV001586071 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2025-01-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 4 of the BRCA1 gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or altered protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs80358042, gnomAD 0.003%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 8533757, 20215541, 23479189, 28477318). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37446). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in activation of a cryptic splice site, and produces a non-functional protein and/or introduces a premature termination codon (PMID: 20215541, 22505045; internal data). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
