Genes affected

RAD50 (HGNC:9816): (RAD50 double strand break repair protein) The protein encoded by this gene is highly similar to Saccharomyces cerevisiae Rad50, a protein involved in DNA double-strand break repair. This protein forms a complex with MRE11 and NBS1. The protein complex binds to DNA and displays numerous enzymatic activities that are required for nonhomologous joining of DNA ends. This protein, cooperating with its partners, is important for DNA double-strand break repair, cell cycle checkpoint activation, telomere maintenance, and meiotic recombination. Knockout studies of the mouse homolog suggest this gene is essential for cell growth and viability. Mutations in this gene are the cause of Nijmegen breakage syndrome-like disorder.[provided by RefSeq, Apr 2010]

Intronic +5 splice site variant in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease, and both splice predictors and evolutionary conservation support a deleterious effect, although in the absence of functional evidence the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown.; Observed in individual(s) with personal or family history of breast, ovarian, or other cancer (PMID: 35534704); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 35534704) -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The variant has not been reported in the published literature. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000055 (7/128412 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using software algorithms for the prediction of the effect of nucleotide changes on RAD50 mRNA splicing yielded inconclusive findings . Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.129+5G>A intronic variant results from a G to A substitution 5 nucleotides after coding exon 1 in the RAD50 gene. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change falls in intron 1 of the RAD50 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the RAD50 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs587781409, gnomAD 0.006%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with RAD50-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 140976). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). 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. -

Variant summary: RAD50 c.129+5G>A alters a conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Three predict the variant weakens a canonical 5' donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.2e-05 in 1614082 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 6.8e-05 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within Non-Finnish European control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 1 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in RAD50 causing Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome phenotype (6.3e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of Non-Finnish European origin. c.129+5G>A has been reported in the literature in at-least one individual affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer and the authors of this report classified the variant as VUS (example: de Oliveira_2022). The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 35534704). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 140976). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign. -
