RCV002024150 | SCV002315739 | likely pathogenic | Familial cancer of breast; Fanconi anemia complementation group J | 2021-09-24 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRIP1-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs748274524, ExAC 0.002%). This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 10 of the BRIP1 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in BRIP1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16116423, 17033622, 21964575). |

RCV002469450 | SCV002766478 | likely pathogenic | Fanconi anemia complementation group J | 2022-11-29 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Variant summary: BRIP1 c.1473+1G>T 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 a 5' splicing donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.2e-06 in 237976 control chromosomes. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.1473+1G>T in individuals affected with BRIP1-Related Disorders and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. |
