Abstract |
We identified a rare missense germline mutation in BARD1 (c.403G>A or p.Asp135Asn) as pathogenic using integrated genomics and transcriptomics profiling of germline and tumor samples from an early-onset triple-negative breast cancer patient who later was administrated with a PARP inhibitor for 2 months. We demonstrated in cell and mouse models that, compared to the wild-type, (1) c.403G>A mutant cell lines were more sensitive to irradiation, a DNA damage agent, and a PARP inhibitor; (2) c.403G>A mutation inhibited interaction between BARD1 and RAD51 (but not BRCA1); and (3) c.403G>A mutant mice were hypersensitive to ionizing radiation. Our study shed lights on the clinical interpretation of rare germline mutations of BARD1. |
