Ambry Genetics | RCV002439756 | SCV002746598 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2022-08-18 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.2906-1G>C intronic variant results from a G to C substitution one nucleotide upstream from coding exon 19 of the BRIP1 gene. Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to result in aberrant splicing. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice acceptor site and will result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice acceptor site; however, direct evidence is insufficient at this time (Ambry internal data). The resulting transcript is predicted to be in-frame and is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNAdecay; however, direct evidence is unavailable. The exact functional effect of the altered amino acid sequence is unknown. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. |
