Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1Uncertain:1
The c.904G>A variant (also known as p.G302R), located in coding exon 6 of the RAD51C gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 904. The amino acid change results in glycine to arginine at codon 302, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. However, this change occurs in the last base pair of coding exon 6, which makes it likely to have some effect on normal mRNA splicing. 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 and may result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice donor site. RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in abnormal splicing in the set of samples tested (Ambry internal data). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
This variant causes a G to A nucleotide substitution at the last nucleotide of exon 6 of the RAD51C gene and replaces glycine with arginine at codon 302 of the RAD51C protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may have a significant impact on RNA splicing, although this prediction has not been confirmed in published RNA studies. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer 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. -

Fanconi anemia complementation group O Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 302 of the RAD51C protein (p.Gly302Arg). RNA analysis indicates that this missense change induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or altered protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer or ovarian cancer (PMID: 35534704, 35957908). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 478781). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Studies have shown that this missense change results in skipping of exon 7, and produces a non-functional protein and/or introduces a premature termination codon (internal data). 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. -
