Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 9 ACMG points: 10P and 1B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP3_Strong BP6

The NM_058216.3(RAD51C):​c.492T>A​(p.Phe164Leu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid substitution has been previously reported as Uncertain significance in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. F164S) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

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.

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 9 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 6 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 3 benign, 45 uncertain in NM_058216.3
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr17-58696779-T-C is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 409845.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.942
• BP6: Variant 17-58696780-T-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr17-58696780-T-A is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 1304613.

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 164 of the RAD51C protein (p.Phe164Leu). 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: 1304613). 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 RAD51C 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.

Significance: Likely benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant is considered likely benign. This variant is strongly associated with less severe personal and family histories of cancer, typical for individuals without pathogenic variants in this gene [PMID: 25085752].
