ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV001001277 SCV001158452 pathogenic not specified 2019-05-02 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The BRCA1 c.5193+1delG variant (rs397509236), also known as IVS19+1delG, is reported in the literature in a family affected with breast and ovarian cancer, although a pathogenic BRCA2 variant was also reported in this family (Heidemann 2012). The c.5193+1delG variant is absent from general population databases (Exome Variant Server, Genome Aggregation Database), indicating it is not a common polymorphism, and it is reported as pathogenic by several laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID: 55449). This variant abolishes the canonical splice donor site of intron 19, which is likely to disrupt gene function. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV001264597 SCV001442829 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2020-10-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: BRCA1 c.5193+1delG 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: Four predict the variant abolishes canonical 5 splicing donor site and three predict the variant creates a new 5 donor site. At least one publication reports experimental evidence that this variant affects mRNA splicing. Wappenschmidt et al report that the variant did not associate with a suspicious splicing pattern when performed gel electrophoresis of RT-PCR products. However, sequencing revealed the deletion of the last 3nucleotide of exon on mRNA level due to the activation of a cryptic splice site which includes the last nucleotide of that exon (Wappenschmidt_2012). The variant was absent in 251130 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.5193+1delG has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (example: Rebbeck_2018, Wappenschmidt_2012). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Four ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV001264597 SCV001584616 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2023-06-30 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Studies have shown that this premature translational stop signal results in deletion of the last nucleotide of exon 18 due to the activation of a cryptic splice site and introduces a premature termination codon (PMID: 23239986; Invitae). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 55449). This variant is also known as c.5193+1del, IVS19+1delG. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 22535016, 23239986). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (Splice site) in the BRCA1 gene. RNA analysis indicates that this premature translational stop signal induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product.
Ambry Genetics RCV002336196 SCV002643229 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2021-02-08 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.5193+1delG intronic pathogenic mutation, located in intron 17 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide within intron 17 of the BRCA1 gene. This alteration has been reported in conjunction with a BRCA2 mutation an individual with both ovarian cancer and coecum cancer at age 61 years (Heidemann S et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2012 Aug;134(3):1229-39). This alteration was also identified in a large, worldwide study of BRCA1/2 mutation positive families (Rebbeck TR et al. Hum Mutat, 2018 05;39:593-620). In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site and will result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice donor site. RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in abnormal splicing in the set of samples tested (Ambry internal data; Wappenschmidt B et al. PLoS ONE 2012 Dec;7(12):e50800). 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.

Additionally, in vitro splicing analysis shows that the variant results in a frameshift (PMID: 23239986 (2012)). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic.
