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.

Variant summary: The RAD51C c.195A>G (p.Arg65Arg) variant involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide, resulting in a synonymous change. One in silico tool predicts a damaging outcome for this variant. 4/5 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. ESE finder predicts that this variant may affect ESE sites. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. This variant was found in 354/122132 control chromosomes (13 homozygotes), predominantly observed in the East Asian subpopulation at a frequency of 0.0396715 (343/8646). This frequency is about 635 times the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic RAD51C variant (0.0000625), suggesting this is likely a benign polymorphism found primarily in the populations of East Asian origin. This variant has been reported in HBOC families, without strong evidence for causality. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories classified this variant as benign. Taken together, this variant is classified as benign. -

RAD51C, EXON 02, c.195A>G, p.Arg65=, Heterozygous, Benign The RAD51C p.Arg65= variant was identified in 4 of 5232 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.001) from individuals or families with breast and ovarian cancers of Australian and Danish ethnicity and was not identified in 427 control chromosomes from healthy individuals (Jonson 2015, Thompson 2012). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs45511291) as “With Likely benign allele”; in the ClinVar and Clinvitae database as benign by Invitae, GeneDx, Ambry Genetics, and Counsyl, and likely benign by Illumina; and in the LOVD 3.0 database 2X with the following statistical data given: 2 of 1053 (freq.=0.002) and 1 of 134 (freq.0.003). The variant was further identified in the 1000 Genomes Project in 41 of 5000 chromosomes (frequency: 0.001); in HAPMAP-EAS in 40 of 1008 chromosomes (frequency: 0.04), HAPMAP-AFR in 1 of 1322 chromosomes (frequency: 0.0001) and the NHLBI GO Exome Sequencing Project in 1 of 8600 European American and in 5 of 4406 African American alleles. The variant was not identified in the Cosmic and MutDB, databases. The variant was identified in control databases in 773 of 277228 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.003 increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant (Genome Aggregation Consortium Feb 27, 2017). The variant was identified in the following population at a frequency greater than 1%: East Asian in 748 of 18868 chromosomes (freq: 0.04). The p.Arg65= variant is not expected to have clinical significance because it does not result in a change of amino acid and is not located in a known consensus splice site. In addition, in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information this variant meets our laboratory's criteria to be classified as benign.
