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]

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsFeb 17, 2023The p.G968E variant (also known as c.2903G>A), located in coding exon 18 of the RAD50 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 2903. The glycine at codon 968 is replaced by glutamic acid, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration has been detected in 1/1824 patients with triple negative breast cancer who were unselected for a family history of breast or ovarian cancer (Couch FJ et al. J. Clin. Oncol., 2015 Feb;33:304-11). This alteration was reported in 1/60,466 breast cancer cases and in 0/53,461 controls (Dorling et al. N Engl J Med. 2021 02;384:428-439). This alteration was detected in a patient with uterine serous carcinoma (Frimer M et al. Gynecol Oncol, 2016 Apr;141:101-7). This variant was also identified in a cohort of 3,579 African males diagnosed with prostate cancer who underwent multi-gene panel testing of 19 DNA repair and cancer predisposition genes (Matejcic M et al. JCO Precis Oncol, 2020 Jan;4:32-43). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 29, 2024This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 968 of the RAD50 protein (p.Gly968Glu). This variant is present in population databases (rs199895166, gnomAD 0.07%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer and endometrial cancer (PMID: 25452441, 27016235). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 184957). 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 not expected to disrupt RAD50 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJul 13, 2023Variant summary: RAD50 c.2903G>A (p.Gly968Glu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.2e-05 in 248662 control chromosomes in gnomAD. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in RAD50 causing Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (5.2e-05 vs 6.3e-05), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.2903G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with uterine serous carcinoma or Breast Cancer without strong evidence for causality (example: Couch_2015, Frimer_2016). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 25452441, 27016235). Four submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
