Invitae RCV000048806 SCV000076819 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2024-01-03 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp1712*) 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 (rs80357418, gnomAD 0.0009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 12920083, 16683254, 27836010). This variant is also known as c.5255G>A. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 55410). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Ambry Genetics RCV000131830 SCV000186885 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-12-20 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.W1712* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.5136G>A), located in coding exon 16 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 5136. This changes the amino acid from a tryptophan to a stop codon within coding exon 16. This alteration has been detected in numerous breast and/or ovarian cancer families (Ozcelik H et al. J. Med. Genet. 2003 Aug;40(8):e91; van der Hout AH et al. Hum Mutat. 2006 Jul;27(7):654-66; Schenkel LC et al. J Mol Diagn. 2016 Sep;18(5):657-667; Briceno-Balcazar I et al. Colomb Med (Cali). 2017 Jun 30;48(2):58-63). Of note, this alteration is designated as 5255G>A in some 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.

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000131830 SCV000908990 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2021-04-12 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 17 of the BRCA1 gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been observed in individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 12920083, 16683254, 27836010, 29021639). This variant has been identified in 2/251292 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 RCV000048806 SCV000918769 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2018-08-06 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: BRCA1 c.5136G>A (p.Trp1712X) 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 allele was found at a frequency of 4.1e-06 in 246144 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The variant, c.5136G>A, has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer (Briceno-Balcazar_2017, Ozcelik_2003, Rebbeck_2018). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Six ClinVar submissions from other clinical diagnostic laboratories (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as "pathogenic." Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
New York Genome Center RCV000077600 SCV003925198 pathogenic Breast-ovarian cancer, familial, susceptibility to, 1 2022-06-16 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.5136G>A variant in BRCA1 has previously been reported in individuals with hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer [PMID:12920083, 30322717, 29446198,30787465] and it has been curated as pathogenic by an expert panel in ClinVar [ClinVar ID: 55410]. The c.5136G>A variant is observed in 3 alleles with 0 homozygote in population databases (gnomAD v2.1.1 and v3.1.2, TOPMed Freeze 8, All of Us), suggesting it is not a common benign variant in the populations represented in those databases. The c.5136G>A variant in BRCA1 is located in exon 17 of this 23-exon gene, is predicted to incorporate a premature termination codon (p.(Trp1712Ter), and is demonstrated to result in loss-of-function by saturation genome editing assays [PMID: 30209399]. Multiple loss-of-function variants downstream to the c.5136G>A variant have been reported in the literature and ClinVar in individuals with hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer. Based on available evidence this c.5136G>A p.(Trp1712Ter) variant identified in BRCA1 is classified as Pathogenic.
