Description
Frameshift variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect: shown in expression studies to be extremely unstable and to impact cytokinesis (Mikaelsdottir et al., 2004; Jonsdottir et al., 2009); Reported as a founder pathogenic variant in Iceland, accounting for 7-8% of all breast and ovarian cancer in the country (Johannesdottir et al., 1996; Thorlacius et al., 1997; Jonsdottir et al., 2009); Observed in individuals with a personal or family history consistent with pathogenic variants in this gene (Tavtigian et al., 1996; Thorlacius et al., 1997; Azzollini et al., 2017; Chan et al., 2018; Bhaskaran et al., 2019); Truncating variants in this gene are considered pathogenic by a well-established clinical consortium and/or database; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Also known as 999_1003del; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 28199346, 23857704, 8589730, 19478387, 8706004, 23747895, 9150155, 27537391, 28235830, 27062684, 29339979, 10807692, 30720243, 30702160, 30093976, 31159747, 31957001, 29625052, 26689913, 30787465, 31723001, 30350268, 31825140, 34254208, 32341426, 9802270, 30875412, 15571962, 34645131, 15217494)
