Description

The p.D259G variant (also known as c.776A>G), located in coding exon 4 of the BARD1 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 776. The aspartic acid at codon 259 is replaced by glycine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant was observed in an individual with early onset-breast cancer amongst a cohort of 1781 non-Ashkenazi Jewish individuals undergoing BRCA1/2 gene testing based on a personal history of breast cancer (Tung N et al. Cancer, 2015 Jan;121:25-33). This variant was detected in a cohort 97 (35 African American and 62 European American) seemingly unrelated breast cancer cases (Bishop MR et al. PLoS One, 2020 Aug;15:e0238295). This variant was also identified in a cohort of 3579 African males diagnosed with prostate cancer who underwent multi-gene panel testing of 19 DNA repair and cancer predisposition genes (Matejcic M et al. JCO Precis Oncol, 2020 Jan;4:32-43). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.

Description

This missense variant replaces aspartic acid with glycine at codon 259 of the BARD1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 25186627, 32866190), an individual affected with prostate cancer (PMID: 32832836), and in individual(s) who underwent hereditary cancer genetic testing (PMID: 25318351). In an international breast cancer case-control meta-analysis, this variant was detected in 2/60466 cases and 1/53461 unaffected controls (PMID: 33471991). This variant has been identified in 2/257946 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
