Genes affected
RAD51D (HGNC:9823): (RAD51 paralog D) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the RAD51 protein family. RAD51 family members are highly similar to bacterial RecA and Saccharomyces cerevisiae Rad51, which are known to be involved in the homologous recombination and repair of DNA. This protein forms a complex with several other members of the RAD51 family, including RAD51L1, RAD51L2, and XRCC2. The protein complex formed with this protein has been shown to catalyze homologous pairing between single- and double-stranded DNA, and is thought to play a role in the early stage of recombinational repair of DNA. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Read-through transcription also exists between this gene and the downstream ring finger and FYVE-like domain containing 1 (RFFL) gene.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys91Ilefs*13) in the RAD51D gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in RAD51D are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 21822267). This variant is present in population databases (rs753862052, gnomAD 0.08%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with male breast cancer and ovarian and breast cancer (PMID: 21822267, 28008555). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 239394). RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this premature translational stop signal on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (internal data). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The RAD51D c.270_271dup (p.Lys91Ilefs*13) variant alters the translational reading frame of the RAD51D mRNA and causes the premature termination of RAD51D protein synthesis. This variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMIDs: 32318955 (2020), 32068069 (2020), 31780705 (2019), 30982232 (2019), 30875412 (2019), 29566657 (2018), 29020732 (2018), 29348823 (2017)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00076 (14/18394 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is consistent with pathogenicity. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

The c.270_271dupTA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 4 of the RAD51D gene, results from a duplication of TA at nucleotide position 270, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.K91Ifs*13). This mutation has been detected in multiple ovarian cancer patients as well as male and female breast cancer patients (Loveday C et al. Nat. Genet. 2011 Sep;43:879-82; Frey MK et al. Gynecol. Oncol. 2015 Nov;139:211-5; Susswein LR et al. Genet. Med. 2016 Aug;18:823-32; Pritzlaff M et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2017 Feb;161:575-586; Sun J et al. Clin. Cancer Res. 2017 Oct;23:6113-6119; Hirasawa A et al. Oncotarget. 2017 Nov;8:112258-112267; Wang YA et al. BMC Cancer. 2018 Mar;18:315; Eoh KJ et al. Cancer Res Treat. 2018 Jul;50:917-925). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

This variant inserts 2 nucleotides in exon 4 of the RAD51D gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in multiple individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 21822267, 28008555, 29020732, 29348823, 32068069, 32359370, 35186721, 36544182, 37833926, 38905575; DOI: 10.46308/kmj.2023.00283). This variant also has been detected in a two breast cancer case-control studies in 15/60463 cases and 5/53461 unaffected individuals (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID RAD51D_000038) and in 3/831 cases and 2/839 unaffected individuals (PMID: 32318955). This variant has been identified in 14/251448 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of RAD51D function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: RAD51D c.270_271dupTA (p.Lys91IlefsX13) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 6.3e-05 in 253126 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00076 within the East Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database. c.270_271dupTA has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Breast and Ovarian Cancer (example: Loveday_2011, Sun_2017, Zeng_2020). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. In addition, a recent large case-control study evaluating breast cancer cases and controls and a large scale meta-analyses evaluating ovarian cancer cases and controls found a moderate risk association of RAD51D truncating variants with familial breast cancer (overall odds ratio (OR) =1.80, 95% Cis: 1.112.93, p=0.018) as well as with ovarian cancer (overall OR = 6.94, 95% CI: 5.109.44; p< 0.0001) (Dorling_2021, Suszynska_2020). Six other ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
