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.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthJul 19, 2021This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 9 of the RAD51C gene, creating a premature translation stop signal in the last coding exon. While this mutant transcript is predicted to escape nonsense-mediated decay, it is expected to delete 7 amino acids from the C-terminus of the RAD51C protein. While to our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant, cells with a variant protein missing the 11 amino acids from the C-terminus have been reported to have reduced mitomycin C resistance (PMID: 12966089). This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has been identified in 4/280040 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 09, 2022The p.R370* variant (also known as c.1108C>T) located in coding exon 9 of the RAD51C gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1108. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 9. This alteration was detected in a cohort of 116 patients from Chinese familial breast cancer families (Dong L et al. Cancer Biol Med, 2021 Sep;19:850-70). This alteration occurs at the 3' terminus of the RAD51C gene, is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNAdecay, and only impacts the last seven amino acids of the protein. The exact functional effect of this alteration is unknown. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 23, 2024Variant summary: RAD51C c.1108C>T (p.Arg370X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein, and no downtream pathogenic variants have been reported. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 248636 control chromosomes. c.1108C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Breast Cancer, Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and Acute pancreatitis, without strong evidence for causality (Bagherzadeh_2020, Dong_2022, Yin_2022). 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. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 32809180, 34570441, 35171259). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 187300). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJun 18, 2024Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation as the last 7 amino acids are lost, although loss-of-function variants have not been reported downstream of this position in the protein; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 12966089, 14704354, 37298034, 34570441, 32809180, 35171259) -
Fanconi anemia complementation group O Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 23, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg370*) in the RAD51C gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 7 amino acid(s) of the RAD51C protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs756744016, gnomAD 0.006%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 32809180, 34570441). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 187300). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. 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. -
