Is BRCA1 p.Ser282Ter (c.845C>A) pathogenic?

BRCA1 p.Ser282Ter (c.845C>A) is classified Pathogenic in BRCA1 (ClinVar, Expert panel, 2 submitters; last evaluated 2017-12-15). Absent from gnomAD v4.1; Associated with breast-ovarian cancer, familial, susceptibility to, 1.

What condition is associated with BRCA1 p.Ser282Ter (c.845C>A)?

BRCA1 p.Ser282Ter (c.845C>A) is associated with breast-ovarian cancer, familial, susceptibility to, 1 (ClinVar).

How common is BRCA1 p.Ser282Ter (c.845C>A) in the general population?

BRCA1 p.Ser282Ter (c.845C>A) is absent from gnomAD v4.1 (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.

Computational evidence

Protein change
Missense predictors do not apply to this variant type; conservation carries the signal.
Consequence	nonsense (stop-gain)	predicted loss-of-function in a haploinsufficient gene (ClinGen)
NMD	predicted	premature termination codon in exon 10 of 23
REVEL	0.077	moderately benign-leaning
Splicing
SpliceAI	<0.2	no splice effect predicted · four deltas, not one · how we know
Constraint at this position
Conservation	phyloP 5.1	GERP 1.8, phastCons 1
Overall
CADD	35.0	PHRED · no single calibrated threshold — expert panels disagree

Predicted loss-of-function is descriptive, not an applied PVS1 code.

Absent from gnomAD v4.1. Not observed in any sequenced alleles — a rarity signal (ACMG PM2-supporting), not evidence of pathogenicity on its own.
