Invitae | RCV000195397 | SCV000077037 | uncertain significance | Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome | 2023-10-03 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 1836 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Glu1836Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs80356942, gnomAD 0.003%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRCA1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 55605). Advanced modeling performed at Invitae incorporating data from internal and/or published experimental studies (PMID: 30209399) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA1 function. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on BRCA1 function (PMID: 20516115, 21473589, 24845084, 30209399, 30765603). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. |

Ambry Genetics | RCV000219922 | SCV000276176 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2023-01-19 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.E1836K variant (also known as c.5506G>A and 5625G>A), located in coding exon 22 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 5506. The glutamic acid at codon 1836 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with similar properties. One study, which assessed the effect of BRCT missense alterations by structure and sequence based computational analysis, found this alteration to have a probability of affecting structure and function of 0.48 and 0.42, using two sets of analytic features. Additionally, refined sequence based analysis predicted this alteration to affect function (Williams RS et al. J. Biol. Chem. 2003 Dec; 278(52):53007-16). Using several different structural and functional assays, another study found this alteration to be structurally stable; however, they did predict compromised binding activity and specificity, with less than 10% of wild type for both parameters, and found transcriptional activation to be at 55% of wild type, resulting in a classification of uncertain significance for this alteration (Lee MS et al. Cancer Res. 2010 Jun; 70(12):4880-90). Additionally, while one study suggested that this alteration could perturb phosphopeptide recognition and binding (Campbell SJ et al. Structure 2010 Feb; 18(2):167-76), other studies showed that this alteration does not dramatically affect function (Coquelle N et al. Biochemistry 2011 May; 50(21):4579-89; Findlay GM et al. Nature, 2018 Oct;562:217-222). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is conflicting at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. |

RCV000219922 | SCV001352261 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2023-06-28 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This missense variant replaces glutamic acid with lysine at codon 1836 of the BRCA1 protein. Computational prediction tool is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies have reported discrepant findings on variant protein impacts, including modest (PMID: 21473589) to severe disruption (PMID: 20516115) in phosphopeptide binding activity, greater than 50% of wild-type transcriptional activation (PMID: 20516115), and normal function in complementing BRCA1 deficiency and rescue cell proliferation in haploid cells (PMID: 30209399). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has been identified in 2/251336 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. |
