Ambry Genetics RCV000219713 SCV000276754 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-11-10 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.3612delA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 3612, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.A1206Pfs*4). This mutation has been reported in multiple individuals/families with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) syndrome (Stoppa-Lyonnet D et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 1997 May;60:1021-30; Safra T et al. Ann. Oncol. 2013 Nov;24 Suppl 8:viii63-viii68; Meindl A et al. Int. J. Cancer. 2002 Feb;97:472-80). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 3731delA in published literature. 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 RCV000255282 SCV000321430 pathogenic not provided 2015-06-11 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This deletion of one nucleotide in BRCA1 is denoted c.3612delA at the cDNA level and p.Ala1206ProfsX4 (A1206PfsX4) at the protein level. The normal sequence, with the base that is deleted in braces, is GAAG[A]GGGG. The deletion causes a frameshift, which changes an Alanine to a Proline at codon 1206, and creates a premature stop codon at position 4 of the new reading frame. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. BRCA1 c.3612delA, previously reported as BRCA1 3731delA using alternate nomenclature, has been reported in association with breast and ovarian cancer (Stoppa-Lyonnet 1997, Safra 2013). we consider this variant to be pathogenic.

Invitae RCV001386165 SCV001586299 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2023-05-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37533). This variant is also known as c.3731delA. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 9150149, 24131973). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ala1206Profs*4) 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).
Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano RCV000255282 SCV002046328 pathogenic not provided 2020-10-21 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This frameshift variant has been reported in individuals suspected of having hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer syndrome in the published literature (PMID: 24131973 (2002), 11802209 (2002), 9150149 (1997)). This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV001386165 SCV002103840 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2022-02-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: BRCA1 c.3612delA (p.Ala1206ProfsX4) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant was absent in 251168 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.3612delA has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (e.g. Rebbeck_2018, Safra_2013, Stoppa-Lyonnet_1997). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Seven ClinVar submitters, including one expert panel (ENIGMA) have assessed the variant since 2014: all have classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 9150149, 11802209, 24131973, 33471991). This variant has not been identified 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.
