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.

BS1Supporting
BS1 · supporting

ENIGMA BS1_Supporting applies when filter allele frequency (FAF) is above 0.002% (FAF > 0.00002) and ≤ 0.01% (FAF ≤ 0.0001) in gnomAD v2.1 and/or v3.1/v4.1 non-cancer, non-founder populations. The maximum FAF is 4.101e-05 (0.0041%) in gnomAD v4.1, which falls within the BS1_Supporting range (>0.002%, ≤0.01%). The variant is observed in 5/282,204 alleles in v2.1 and 64/1,613,982 alleles in v4.1, with highest frequency in the European (non-Finnish) population (v4.1 NFE AF=0.00517%).

BP1Strong
BP1 · strong

ENIGMA BP1_Strong applies to in-frame deletions outside a clinically important functional domain with no splicing predicted (SpliceAI ≤ 0.1). The p.Glu1000_Glu1001del deletion is at positions 1000-1001, which is outside the three ENIGMA-defined clinically important functional domains: RING (aa 2-101), coiled-coil (aa 1391-1424), and BRCT (aa 1650-1857). SpliceAI max delta score is 0.01, indicating no predicted splicing impact.

Recorded classification: Likely benign

ENIGMA BRCA1 v1.2.0 Table 3 combination rules. Two benign criteria are met: BP1_Strong (in-frame deletion outside clinically important functional domains with no splicing predicted; SpliceAI max delta=0.01) and BS1_Supporting (FAF 0.0041% in gnomAD v4.1, within >0.002% and ≤0.01% range). No pathogenic criteria are met. 1 Strong (Benign) + 1 Supporting (Benign) satisfies ENIGMA Table 3 Likely Benign combination rule. ENIGMA point system: BP1_Strong (-4) + BS1_Supporting (-1) = -5, which falls in Likely Benign range (-6 to -2).

NM_007294.4:c.2998_3003del is an in-frame deletion of 6 nucleotides in BRCA1 exon 10 resulting in deletion of two glutamic acid residues at positions 1000-1001 (p.Glu1000_Glu1001del). This is not a null variant; PVS1 does not apply.

The variant is present in gnomAD at low frequency: 5/282,204 alleles in v2.1 (AF=0.00177%) and 64/1,613,982 alleles in v4.1 (AF=0.00397%), with a maximum filter allele frequency of 0.0041%. This meets ENIGMA BS1_Supporting (FAF >0.002% and ≤0.01%).

The deletion is located at amino acid positions 1000-1001, outside the three ENIGMA-defined clinically important functional domains (RING aa 2-101, coiled-coil aa 1391-1424, BRCT aa 1650-1857). SpliceAI predicts no splicing impact (max delta = 0.01). This meets ENIGMA BP1_Strong for an in-frame deletion outside functional domains with no splicing predicted.

Clinical-history likelihood ratio from Li et al. 2020 (PMID:31853058) is 0.545 based on 7 probands, falling in the neutral zone. Neither PP4 nor BP5 is applied.

The variant was reported as a variant of unknown significance in 1 of 258 ovarian cancer patients by Smith et al. 2001 (PMID:11733976), identified in the RAD51-binding region of BRCA1. This observation alone does not meet any pathogenic criterion threshold.

Overall classification: Likely Benign. Using the ENIGMA point system: BP1_Strong (-4) + BS1_Supporting (-1) = -5 points, which falls in the Likely Benign range (-6 to -2). No pathogenic criteria are met.

PVS1 NM_007294.4:c.2998_3003del is an in-frame 6-bp deletion resulting in p.(Glu1000_Glu1001del). PVS1 under ENIGMA BRCA1 v1.2.0 applies exclusively to null variants (nonsense, frameshift, canonical splice ±1,2, initiation codon, or single/multi-exon deletion). This in-frame deletion does not introduce a premature termination codon or alter the reading frame and is not assigned PVS1 in the ENIGMA Table 4 exon-level decision matrix for BRCA1 exon 10(11).

  • BRCA1 germline mutations and polymorphisms in a clinic-based series of ovarian cancer cases: a Gynecologic Oncology Group study.
    Smith SA et al. · 2001
    The variant c.2998_3003del (reported as 3117del6, p.Glu1000_Glu1001del) was identified as a variant of unknown significance in 1 of 258 unselected ovarian cancer patients. The deleted residues are noted as evolutionarily conserved and located in the RAD51-binding domain. The proband had no family history of breast or ovarian cancer.

Statements for reports

The evidence statements recorded by the interpretation pipeline. They have not been reinterpreted by the page.

gnomAD v4.1

This variant is present in gnomAD v4.1 (AF= 3.96535e-05; MAF= 0.00397%, 64/1613982 alleles, homozygotes = 0) and has highest observed frequency in the European (non-Finnish) population (AF= 5.16947e-05; MAF= 0.00517%, 61/1180004 alleles, homozygotes = 0); grpmax FAF= 4.101e-05.

gnomAD v2.1

This variant is present in gnomAD v2.1 (AF= 1.77177e-05; MAF= 0.00177%, 5/282204 alleles, homozygotes = 0) and has highest observed frequency in the European (non-Finnish) population (AF= 3.88066e-05; MAF= 0.00388%, 5/128844 alleles, homozygotes = 0); grpmax FAF= 1.124e-05.

gnomAD-Canada

Absent from gnomAD-Canada v1.0.

ClinVar

This variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (9 clinical laboratories) and as Likely benign (3 clinical laboratories). (ClinVarID = 54743)

In silico

SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact for this variant (max delta score = 0.01).

Functional

OncoKB did not identify variant-specific reviewed functional evidence for this variant; gene-level curated context is available for reviewer follow-up. BRCA1, a tumor suppressor involved in the DNA damage response, is mutated in various cancer types.

Somatic

This variant does not lie in a statistically significant hotspot. This variant has not previously been reported in somatic cancers (COSMIC).

Cancer Hotspots

This variant does not lie in a statistically significant hotspot.
