Invitae RCV000048431 SCV000076444 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2024-01-25 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Asn1355Lysfs*10) 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 present in population databases (rs80357508, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 8571953, 11802209, 14757871, 21559243). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as 4184del4. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 17674). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Ambry Genetics RCV000131887 SCV000186942 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-03-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.4065_4068delTCAA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a deletion of 4 nucleotides at nucleotide positions 4065 to 4068, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.N1355Kfs*10). This alteration has been reported in multiple families with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer from a variety of ethnic backgrounds (Shattuck-Eidens D et al. JAMA. 1995 Feb;273:535-41; Langston AA et al. N. Engl. J. Med. 1996 Jan;334:137-42; Spitzer E et al. Int. J. Cancer. 2000 Feb;85:474-81; Ahn SH et al. Cancer Lett. 2007 Jan;245:90-5; Cunningham J et al. Sci. Rep. 2014 Feb;4:4026; Rashid MU et al. BMC Cancer. 2016 Aug;16:673; Li JY et al. Int. J. Cancer 2019 Jan;144(2):281-289; Siraj AK et al. Hum. Mutat. 2019 Mar). This mutation was also identified in an individual from a cohort of 191 prostate cancer patients with at least three prostate cancer cases in their families; this individual's family was also noted to be affected with breast and colon cancer (Leongamornlet D et al. Br. J. Cancer. 2014 Mar;110:1663-72). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 4184del4 in published literature. 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.

This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This is a recurrent variant detected in hereditary breast and ovarian cancer families worldwide and has been reported in at least 30 individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 7894493, 8531967, 17018160, 16455195, 20104584, 21324516, 21559243, 23175448, 23633455, 27553291, 28724667, 28831036, 28993434, 29470806, 30078507, 29752822, 30825404, 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA1_000288) and an individual affected with prostate cancer (PMID: 24556621). This variant has been identified in 3/250844 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 RCV000048431 SCV000699105 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2017-08-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: The BRCA1 c.4065_4068delTCAA (p.Asn1355Lysfs) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent BRCA1 protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (e.g. c.4117G>T, p.Glu1373X; c.4158_4162delCTCTC, p.Ser1387fs). This variant has been reported in numerous HBOC patients with positive family history (e.g. Langston 1996, Spitzer 2000, Evans 2004, Borg 2010). This variant is absent in 121322 control chromosomes, suggesting that it is not a common, benign variant. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic.

The p.Asn1355LysfsTer10 variant is reported with the allele frequency (0.001%) in the gnomAD Exomes and is novel (not in any individuals) in 1000 Genomes. This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Pathogenic. This variant causes a frameshift starting with codon Asparagine 1355, changes this amino acid to Lysine residue, and creates a premature Stop codon at position 10 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Asn1355LysfsTer10. Loss-offunction variants in BRCA1 are known to be pathogenic (Borg et al., 2010). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

This variant is listed as pathogenic by multiple laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID: 17674), and is only observed on three alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant causes a frameshift by deleting 4 nucleotides, so it is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Evans DG et al.

It has also been identified in 0.004% (3/68040) European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org, v.3.1). This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 1355 and leads to a premature termination codon 10 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the BRCA1 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal dominant hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC). Additionally, this variant was classified as pathogenic on April 22, 2016 by the ClinGen-approved ENIGMA expert panel (Variation ID 17674). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant HBOC. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PS4, PM2_Supporting, PVS1.

The variant was also identified in the following databases: dbSNP (ID: rs80357508) as “With Pathogenic allele”, ClinVar (18x pathogenic including review by expert panel ENIGMA, 1x likely pathogenic), LOVD 3.0 (23x), UMD-LSDB (88x, causal), and the BIC Database (144x pathogenic). The variant was not identified in Cosmic, MutDB, or the Zhejiang University Database. In addition, the variant was identified by our laboratory in two individuals with breast cancer. The variant was not identified in the control databases: the 1000 Genomes Project, the NHLBI GO Exome Sequencing Project, or the Genome Aggregation Database (Feb 27, 2017). The c.4065_4068delTCAA variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein's amino acid sequence beginning at codon 1355 and leads to a premature stop codon at position 1364. This alteration is then predicted to result in a truncated or absent protein and loss of function. Loss of function variants of the BRCA1 gene are an established mechanism of disease in hereditary breast and ovarian cancer and is the type of variant expected to cause the disorder. In summary, based on the above information this variant meets our laboratory’s criteria to be classified as pathogenic.
