Invitae RCV000049055 SCV000077068 uncertain significance Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2022-10-27 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 186 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Ser186Ala). This variant is present in population databases (rs397509298, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 12845657). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 55633). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt BRCA1 protein function. 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.
Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000579547 SCV000683335 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-06-21 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces serine with alanine at codon 186 of the BRCA1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies reported to have examined this variant but the findings were inconclusive (PMID: 25823446, 30219179). This variant has been detected in at least four individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 12845657, 30254663, 35409996; DOI: 10.1515/tjb-2019-0424) and in two individuals affected with colorectal cancer (PMID: 32658311). This variant has been identified in 1/250732 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The 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.

Ambry Genetics RCV000579547 SCV001186277 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-12-05 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.S186A variant (also known as c.556T>G), located in coding exon 7 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a T to G substitution at nucleotide position 556. The serine at codon 186 is replaced by alanine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration (designated as 675T>G) was detected in an individual who was diagnosed with breast cancer at 28 and whose father was diagnosed with leukemia at 63 (de Sanjosé S, et al. Int. J. Cancer 2003;106(4):588-93). In addition, this alteration was identified in a family who met a regional protocol for BRCA testing (Zuntini R et al. Front Genet, 2018 Sep;9:378). In another study, this alteration was seen in 0/732 breast cancer patients, 2/189 colorectal cancer patients and 0/490 cancer-free elderly controls in a Turkish population (Akcay IM et al. Int J Cancer, 2021 Jan;148:285-295). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
