Variant summary: MRE11 c.463C>T (p.Arg155Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Calcineurin-like phosphoesterase domain, ApaH type (IPR004843) of 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 4e-06 in 250950 control chromosomes (gnomAD v2.1, exomes dataset). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. The variant, c.463C>T, has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with breast cancer (Young_2016) and stomach cancer (Schwartz_2022), however without providing evidence of causality. The variant has also been reported in 1 / 7325 European American women, who are older than age 70 and cancer free (FLOSSIES database). In a recent large study evaluating breast cancer cases and controls in the Breast Cancer Association Consortium (BCAC), the variant was reported in 6/60466 cases, and in 1/53461 controls (Dorling_2021, reported through LOVD). 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. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
The p.R155C variant (also known as c.463C>T), located in coding exon 5 of the MRE11A gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 463. The arginine at codon 155 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This variant was reported in an individual diagnosed with gastric cancer (Schwartz A et al. Front Oncol, 2022 Aug;12:942741) and an individual diagnosed with early-onset breast cancer (Young EL et al. J Med Genet, 2016 Jun;53:366-76). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
Ataxia-telangiectasia-like disorder Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 155 of the MRE11 protein (p.Arg155Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs587782512, gnomAD 0.005%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MRE11-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 142512). 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 tolerated. 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. -
