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.

Submissions by phenotype

not provided Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJan 02, 2020Nonsense variant in the C-terminus predicted to result in protein truncation, as the last 42 amino acids are lost including the nuclear localization signal (French 2003); Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek 2016); Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsApr 23, 2024The p.C335* variant (also known as c.1005C>A), located in coding exon 8 of the RAD51C gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 1005. This changes the amino acid from a cysteine to a stop codon within coding exon 8. This alteration occurs at the 3' terminus of RAD51C gene, is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, and only impacts the last 11% of the protein. However, premature stop codons are typically deleterious in nature and a significant portion of the protein is affected (Ambry internal data). Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
Fanconi anemia complementation group O Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpDec 02, 2022This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Cys335*) in the RAD51C gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 42 amino acid(s) of the RAD51C protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs759292615, gnomAD 0.006%). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Cys335 amino acid residue in RAD51C. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 12966089). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 231450). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with RAD51C-related conditions. -
