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.

Significance:Likely pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 312 of the RAD51C protein (p.Arg312Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs779834376, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Fanconi anemia (PMID: 29278735). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 229887). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt RAD51C protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Studies have shown that this missense change is associated with inconclusive levels of altered splicing (internal data). 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 missense variant replaces arginine with glutamine at codon 312 of the RAD51C protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual having clinical features of Fanconi anemia in compound heterozygosity with a splice site variant c.571+5G>A (PMID: 2927873). In a breast cancer case-control study, this variant has been reported in 1/60466 cases and 1/53461 unaffected controls (OR=0.884; 95%CI 0.055 to 14.136; p-value=1; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID RAD51C_000200) (PMID: 33471991). This variant has been identified in 6/251358 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.R312Q variant (also known as c.935G>A), located in coding exon 7 of the RAD51C gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 935. The arginine at codon 312 is replaced by glutamine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant has been reported in conjunction with another variant in RAD51C in an individual diagnosed with clinical features of Fanconi anemia (Jacquinet A et al. Eur J Med Genet, 2018 May;61:257-261). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
