Genes affected

RAD51D (HGNC:9823): (RAD51 paralog D) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the RAD51 protein family. RAD51 family members are highly similar to bacterial RecA and Saccharomyces cerevisiae Rad51, which are known to be involved in the homologous recombination and repair of DNA. This protein forms a complex with several other members of the RAD51 family, including RAD51L1, RAD51L2, and XRCC2. The protein complex formed with this protein has been shown to catalyze homologous pairing between single- and double-stranded DNA, and is thought to play a role in the early stage of recombinational repair of DNA. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Read-through transcription also exists between this gene and the downstream ring finger and FYVE-like domain containing 1 (RFFL) gene.

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant causes an A to T nucleotide substitution at the canonical -2 position of intron 9 splice acceptor site of the RAD51D gene. A RNA study has shown that this variant results in the use of cryptic splice acceptor site which then cause a deletion of 7 nucleotides from the beginning of exon 9 (c.904_910del) (PMID: 31843900). The mutant transcript is expected to escape nonsense-mediated decay and be expressed as a truncated protein (p.Pro302Valfs*6) that lacks the C-terminus of the ATPase domain (PMID: 14704354, 19327148, 21111057) and RAD51C interaction domain (PMID: 10749867, 14704354, 19327148). Although protein functional studies have not been reported, this variant is likely to disrupt RAD51D function. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with ovarian cancer (PMID: 29020732), breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 26046366), leiomyosarcoma (PMID: 34838098), and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PMID: 37024097). This variant has been identified in 1/251488 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.904-2A>T intronic variant results from an A to T substitution two nucleotides upstream from coding exon 10 in the RAD51D gene. This alteration was seen in a patient diagnosed with ovarian cancer at age 58 (Eoh KJ et al. Cancer Res Treat. 2017 Sep). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice acceptor site and will result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice acceptor site. RNA analyses have shown that this alteration leads to an aberrant splicing by activation of cryptic acceptor site (Casadei S et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 2019 Dec; Ambry internal data). The resulting transcript is predicted not to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNAdecay; however, direct evidence is unavailable. The exact functional effect of the missing amino acids is unknown; however, structural analysis suggests that this region contains a highly conserved ATP cap, which functions to hold the ATP in place and is likely to impact nucleoprotein filament stability (Amunugama R et al. J. Biol. Chem. 2012 Mar; 287(12):8724-36). Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 9 of the RAD51D gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and likely disrupts the C-terminus of the protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with biliary cancer, ovarian cancer and retroperitoneal leiomyosarcoma (PMID: 29020732, 34838098). This variant is also known as c.964-2A>T. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 472631). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in activation of a cryptic splice site and introduces a new termination codon (Invitae). However the mRNA is not expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Variant summary: RAD51D c.904-2A>T alters a conserved nucleotide located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Four predict the variant abolishes the canonical 3' splice acceptor site. Four predict the variant strengthens an alternate cryptic exonic 3' splice acceptor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251488 control chromosomes. c.904-2A>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with a variety of cancers such as Peritoneum Leiomyosarcoma (Futagawa_2021), Biliary tract cholangiocarcinoma (Wardell_2018), Breast carcinoma (Kaneyasu_2020, Johnston_2015) and Ovarian serous carcinoma (Eoh_2018). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation (Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic, n=4; VUS, n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

The RAD51D c.904-2A>T variant disrupts a canonical splice-acceptor site and is predicted to interfere with normal RAD51D mRNA splicing. This variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 26046366 (2015), 29020732 (2018)), retroperitoneal leiomyosarcoma (PMID: 34838098 (2021)), endometrial cancer (PMID: 36744932 (2023)), and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PMID: 37024097 (2023)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000004 (1/251488 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic. -
