Genes affected
RAD51C (HGNC:9820): (RAD51 paralog C) This gene is a member of the RAD51 family. RAD51 family members are highly similar to bacterial RecA and Saccharomyces cerevisiae Rad51 and are known to be involved in the homologous recombination and repair of DNA. This protein can interact with other RAD51 paralogs and is reported to be important for Holliday junction resolution. Mutations in this gene are associated with Fanconi anemia-like syndrome. This gene is one of four localized to a region of chromosome 17q23 where amplification occurs frequently in breast tumors. Overexpression of the four genes during amplification has been observed and suggests a possible role in tumor progression. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

The RAD51C c.134A>G (p.Glu45Gly) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.12% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). The in silico tool REVEL predicts a benign effect on protein function, but to our knowledge this prediction has not been confirmed by functional studies. This variant has been reported in individuals with a personal and/or family history of breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 21537932, 22451500, 25470109, 26689913). In a large case-control study, this variant was reported in 3 of 60,466 individuals with breast cancer and in 0 of 53,461 control individuals (PMID: 33471991). It has also been identified in an individual with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (PMID: 26689913). This variant is present as heterozygous in two individuals in a database of women older than 70 years of age who have never had cancer (FLOSSIES database, https://whi.color.com/). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals with Fanconi anemia. In summary, the evidence currently available is insufficient to determine the clinical significance of this variant. It has therefore been classified as of uncertain significance. -

The p.E45G variant (also known as c.134A>G), located in coding exon 1 of the RAD51C gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 134. The glutamic acid at codon 45 is replaced by glycine, an amino acid with similar properties. In one study, p.E45G was classified as a variant of unknown significance after being identified in 1 of 492 Spanish BRCA1/2-negative breast cancer families; the proband was a woman diagnosed with breast cancer at 42 years of age, with a family history of a first degree relative with breast cancer diagnosed at 41 (Romero A et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2011 Oct;129:939-46). This alteration has been reported in a renal cancer patient from a cohort of 4034 cancer cases from The Cancer Genome Atlas (Lu C et al. Nat Commun. 2015 Dec;6:10086). This variant was reported in 3/60,466 breast cancer cases and in 0/53,461 controls (Dorling et al. N Engl J Med. 2021 02;384:428-439). This alteration demonstrated retained homology-directed repair (HDR) activity in one functional study (Hu C et al. Cancer Res, 2023 May;:). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 45 of the RAD51C protein (p.Glu45Gly). This variant is present in population databases (rs587781383, gnomAD 0.1%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer and/or kidney clear cell carcinoma (PMID: 21537932, 26689913, 34326862). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 140940). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt RAD51C protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect RAD51C function (PMID: 37253112). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Variant summary: RAD51C c.134A>G (p.Glu45Gly) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.3e-05 in 1614080 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in RAD51C causing Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (4.3e-05 vs 6.3e-05), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.134A>G has been reported in the literature in the TGCA cohort and among individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer (example, Lu_2015, Romero_2011, Kushnir_2012, Bhai_2021). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. 11 submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Multiple submitters reported the variant with conflicting assessments (VUS, n=9, likely benign, n=2). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
