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.

The p.D108G variant (also known as c.323A>G), located in coding exon 2 of the RAD51C gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 323. The aspartic acid at codon 108 is replaced by glycine, an amino acid with similar properties. In a homology-directed DNA repair (HDR) assay, this alteration showed a functionally abnormal read-out (Hu C et al. Cancer Res, 2023 Aug;83:2557-2571). This alteration was identified in an individual with a personal and/or family history of breast cancer (Pereira JZ et al. Mol Biol Rep, 2022 Oct;49:9509-9520). This variant was also observed in 1/3251 individuals who met eligibility criteria for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome (Lerner-Ellis J et al. J Cancer Res Clin Oncol, 2021 Mar;147:871-879). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces aspartic acid with glycine at codon 108 of the RAD51C protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function. Functional studies have shown that this variant had a deleterious impact on homology-directed repair, drug response, and foci formation (PMID: 37253112). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals affected with RAD51C-related disorders in the literature. This variant has not been identified 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. -

Malignant tumor of breast Uncertain:1

Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The RAD51C p.Asp108Gly variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in the dbSNP, Cosmic, MutDB, or LOVD 3.0 databases. The variant was identified in ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by Ambry Genetics and Invitae). The variant was not identified in the following control databases: the Exome Aggregation Consortium (August 8th 2016), or the Genome Aggregation Database (Feb 27, 2017). The p.Asp108 residue is conserved across mammals and other organisms, and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) suggest that the variant may impact the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and 2 of 4 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing; this is not very predictive of pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 108 of the RAD51C protein (p.Asp108Gly). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). 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: 480494). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt RAD51C protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. 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. -
