Missense variant in a coldspot region where missense variants are very unlikely to be pathogenic (PMID:31911673).
This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 695 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Asp695Asn). This variant is present in population databases (rs28897681, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 9523200, 31907386). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 54455). 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 BRCA1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect BRCA1 function (PMID: 23867111, 26689913, 32546644). 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.
This submission and the accompanying classification are no longer maintained by the submitter. For more information on current observations and classification, please contact variantquestions@myriad.com.

VCEP Guidelines

Applied ACMG/AMP Criteria (VCEP Specific) VCEP Guidelines
PVS1
PVS1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PVS1 is: 'Very Strong Null variant (nonsense, frameshift, splice site (+/−1,2), initiation codon, single or multi-exon deletion) in a gene where loss of function is a known mechanism of disease.' The evidence for this variant shows: it is a missense change (D695N), not a null variant. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PS1
PS1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PS1 is: 'Strong Apply PS1 for predicted missense substitutions where a previously classified pathogenic variant results in the same amino acid change.' The evidence for this variant shows: no previously established pathogenic variant results in the same D695N amino acid change. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PS2
PS2 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PS2 is: 'De novo (paternity and maternity confirmed) in a patient with the disease and no family history.' The evidence for this variant shows: no data on de novo occurrence. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PS3
PS3 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PS3 is: 'Strong Well-established in vitro or in vivo functional studies supportive of a damaging effect.' The evidence for this variant shows: functional assay (cisplatin response) indicates a likely neutral effect on protein function. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PS4
PS4 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PS4 is: 'Strong The prevalence of the variant in affected individuals is significantly increased compared to controls (case-control with p≤0.05 and OR≥4).' The evidence for this variant shows: no case-control or prevalence data in affected individuals. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM1
PM1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM1 is: 'Moderate Applies to variants located in a mutational hot spot or well‐studied functional domain without benign variation.' The evidence for this variant shows: D695N is located outside the defined clinically important functional domains (RING 2-101, coiled-coil 1391-1424, BRCT 1650-1857). Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
