Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PM2

The NM_058216.3(RAD51C):c.118G>A(p.Glu40Lys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000684 in 1,461,886 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. E40D) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Center for Genomics, Ann and Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago	Jul 09, 2021	RAD51C NM_058216.1 exon 1 p.Glu40Lys (c.118G>A): This variant has not been reported in the literature and is not present in large control databases. This variant is present in ClinVar (Variation ID:188123). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools suggest that this variant may not impact the protein. In summary, data on this variant is insufficient for disease classification. Therefore, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Jun 08, 2023	The p.E40K variant (also known as c.118G>A), located in coding exon 1 of the RAD51C gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 118. The glutamic acid at codon 40 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 40 of the RAD51C protein (p.Glu40Lys). 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: 188123). 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. -
