About BRCA1

No gene-level summary was recorded for this case.

LYFE Sciences is an AI system, and it can make mistakes. Criteria may be applied incorrectly, sources may be misread, and a confident-looking classification can still be wrong. Double-check every criterion and its underlying evidence before relying on any call.
01The reasoning

How it was classified

The recorded framework is ClinGen BRCA1 VCEP v1.2. The criteria and strengths shown below come from the saved assessment; this page does not recalculate the classification.

ENIGMA BS1_Supporting requires FAF > 0.002% (FAF > 0.00002) and ≤ 0.01% (≤ 0.0001). The gnomAD v2.1 grpmax FAF is 2.299e-05, which marginally exceeds the 0.00002 supporting threshold. However, gnomAD v4.1 grpmax FAF is 1.884e-05, which falls below the same threshold. Given the borderline nature and discrepancy between gnomAD versions, this call warrants human review. The variant has been observed in 6 alleles (v2.1) and 35 alleles (v4.1) with no homozygotes.

Recorded classification: Uncertain significance

Only one criterion met: BS1 at supporting benign strength (gnomAD v2.1 grpmax FAF 2.299e-05 marginally above the 0.00002 threshold, though v4.1 FAF 1.884e-05 falls below). ENIGMA Table 3 requires a minimum of 2 Supporting (Benign) or 1 Strong (Benign) + 1 Supporting (Benign) for Likely Benign. The ENIGMA point-based scoring system assigns -1 point, which falls in the VUS range (-1 to 5). No pathogenic criteria are met. The single borderline BS1_Supporting call is insufficient to reach any classification other than VUS.

NM_007294.4:c.19C>T (p.Arg7Cys) is a missense variant in exon 2 of BRCA1, within the RING domain (aa 2-101).

This variant is present at very low frequency in population databases: gnomAD v2.1 (6/251054 alleles, AF=2.39e-05) and gnomAD v4.1 (35/1613308 alleles, AF=2.17e-05), with no homozygotes observed.

The variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely benign by 11 clinical laboratories and as Uncertain significance by 3 laboratories (ClinVar Variation ID: 37440, review status: criteria provided, single submitter).

ENIGMA Table9 classifies c.19C>T as 'None' (N/A) for both PS3 and BS3 due to discordant functional results: Findlay 2018 (PMID:30209399) reported no functional impact via saturation genome editing, while Bouwman 2020 (PMID:32546644) reported a deleterious effect via HRR complementation assay.

BayesDel no-AF score (0.021) falls below the PP3 threshold (≥0.28) and within the BP4 benign prediction range (≤0.15), but SpliceAI max delta (0.17) exceeds the BP4 threshold (≤0.1), precluding both PP3 and BP4 application under ENIGMA rules.

The Parsons et al. 2019 multifactorial likelihood analysis yielded a combined LR of 1.1146 (neutral zone), providing insufficient evidence for either PP4 or BP5.

The gnomAD v2.1 grpmax FAF of 2.299e-05 marginally exceeds the ENIGMA BS1_Supporting threshold (FAF > 0.00002), but the gnomAD v4.1 FAF of 1.884e-05 falls below this threshold. This borderline frequency evidence was applied as BS1_Supporting with a recommendation for human review.

No pathogenic evidence criteria are met. PVS1, PS1-PS5, PM1, PM2, PM5, PM6, PP1-PP5 are all not met or not applicable. The only criterion met is BS1 at supporting benign strength.

However, gnomAD v4.1 grpmax FAF is 1.884e-05, which falls below the same threshold. Given the borderline nature and discrepancy between gnomAD versions, this call warrants human review.

BP7 N/AENIGMA BP7 applies to silent/intronic variants for splicing data, or to missense variants outside clinically important functional domains for RNA assay data. c.19C>T is a missense variant inside the RING domain (aa 2-101). For missense variants inside a functional domain, BS3 must be met for BP7_Strong(RNA) eligibility, which is not satisfied. BP7_Supporting is restricted to silent/intronic variants. Details ▾Hide ▴
Evidence considered
  • Missense variant inside RING domain
  • BS3 not met
  • BP7 not applicable for this variant type.

  • Genetic analysis of BRCA1 ubiquitin ligase activity and its relationship to breast cancer susceptibility.
    Morris JR et al. · 2006
    Morris et al. analyzed BRCA1 ubiquitin ligase activity and its relationship to breast cancer susceptibility, focusing on the BRCA1-BARD1 RING heterodimer. The paper discusses cancer-associated missense mutations in the RING domain at a general level. NM_007294.4:c.19C>T was not specifically identified in this paper.

  • Standards and guidelines for the interpretation of sequence variants: a joint consensus recommendation of the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics and the Association for Molecular Pathology.
    Joint consensus recommendation of the ACMG and AMP providing standards and guidelines for the interpretation of sequence variants. This is a methodological framework paper that does not discuss individual variants. NM_007294.4:c.19C>T was not identified.

  • Massively Parallel Functional Analysis of BRCA1 RING Domain Variants.
    Starita LM et al. · 2015
    Starita et al. performed massively parallel functional analysis of nearly 2000 missense substitutions in the BRCA1 RING domain, measuring E3 ubiquitin ligase activity and BARD1 binding. c.19C>T (R7C) was among the variants assayed. The ENIGMA Table9 curates this as part of the calibrated functional dataset; results were discordant with Bouwman 2020.

  • A Standardized DNA Variant Scoring System for Pathogenicity Assessments in Mendelian Disorders.
    Karbassi et al. developed a standardized DNA variant scoring system (Sherloc) for pathogenicity assessments in Mendelian disorders. The paper describes a rules-based classification framework. NM_007294.4:c.19C>T was not specifically discussed.

  • Functional Categorization of BRCA1 Variants of Uncertain Clinical Significance in Homologous Recombination Repair Complementation Assays.
    Bouwman et al. performed functional categorization of BRCA1 variants of uncertain clinical significance using homologous recombination repair (HRR) complementation assays. c.19C>T (R7C) was tested and classified as Deleterious. This result was discordant with Findlay 2018 (PMID:30209399), which classified the variant as functionally normal.
