RCV001178287 | SCV001342682 | likely pathogenic | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2020-04-06 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant inserts 1 nucleotide in exon 20 of the BRIP1 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal in the last exon. This variant is expected to escape nonsense-mediated decay and be expressed as a truncated protein that lacks the functional domains involved in BRCA1-binding, DNA damage and replication stress responses and attenuation of DNA damage tolerance pathway (PMID: 11301010, 14983014, 20159562, 20173781, 22792074). Although functional studies have not been reported for this variant, this variant is expected to impair important BRIP1 protein function. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BRIP1 function is a known mechanism of disease. Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. |
