What condition is associated with BRCA1 c.4357+380A>G?

BRCA1 c.4357+380A>G is associated with breast-ovarian cancer, familial, susceptibility to, 1 (ClinVar).

How common is BRCA1 c.4357+380A>G in the general population?

BRCA1 c.4357+380A>G is low-frequency (popmax 1.49%, afr) (gnomAD).

How is Hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer syndrome inherited?

Typically Autosomal dominant (Orphanet). A genetic counselor can assess individual risk for a family.

Rarity supports pathogenicity (ACMG PM2); frequency above a disease-specific BA1/BS1 threshold argues against it. A variant frequent in one ancestry group can be near-absent in others, so a single global figure can mislead.
