Ambry Genetics | RCV004517827 | SCV005029218 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2024-09-25 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.1227delT variant, located in coding exon 8 of the BRIP1 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 1227, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.S409Rfs*2). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, however; in silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice donor site leading to an in-frame deletion of 37 amino acids. RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in a transcript predicted to lead to a protein with an in-frame deletion; however, the exact functional impact of the deleted amino acid(s) is unknown at this time (Ambry internal data).This nucleotide position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. |
