ABSTRACT
The presence of mutations in the BRCA1 gene (MIM 113705) is widely recognized as a significant genetic predisposition for ovarian cancer. This study investigated the genomic mutations in a Chinese family with a history of ovarian, breast, and rectal adenocarcinoma. A novel germline mutation (Phe1695Val) in BRCA1 was identified through whole-exome sequencing. Subsequently, we performed whole-genome sequencing to identify somatic mutations and analyze mutational signatures in individuals carrying the novel germline mutation. Our findings revealed a correlation between somatic mutational signatures and the BRCA1 germline mutation in the proband with ovarian cancer, while no such association was observed in the tumor tissue from the patient with breast cancer. Furthermore, distinct somatic driver mutations were identified, a truncated mutation in the TP53 gene in the ovarian tumor tissue, and a hotspot mutation in the PIK3CA gene in the breast cancer. According to our findings, the BRCA1 F1695V mutation is linked to ovarian cancer susceptibility in the family and causes specific somatic mutational profiles.
