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.

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: no assertion criteria provided

Collection Method: clinical testing

The RAD51C c.186_187delAA variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Gln62Hisfs*10). This variant has been reported to be causative for cancer, although no further information was provided (LaDuca et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28152038). This variant is reported in 0.0080% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD and has been interpreted as pathogenic in the ClinVar database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/141999/). Frameshift variants in RAD51C are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -

Ambry Genetics

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.186_187delAA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 2 of the RAD51C gene, results from a deletion of two nucleotides at nucleotide positions 186 to 187, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.Q62Hfs*10). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln62Hisfs*10) in the RAD51C gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in RAD51C are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20400964, 21990120, 24800917, 29278735). This variant is present in population databases (rs778370098, gnomAD 0.008%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with RAD51C-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 141999). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
