RCV000475483 | SCV000547354 | uncertain significance | Familial cancer of breast; Fanconi anemia complementation group J | 2024-01-16 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 597 of the BRIP1 protein (p.Ala597Gly). RNA analysis indicates that this missense change induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRIP1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 407858). 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 not expected to disrupt BRIP1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Studies have shown that this missense change results in activation of a cryptic splice site and introduces a premature termination codon (Invitae). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. 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. |
