About RAD51C

No gene-level summary was recorded for this case.

LYFE Sciences is an AI system, and it can make mistakes. Criteria may be applied incorrectly, sources may be misread, and a confident-looking classification can still be wrong. Double-check every criterion and its underlying evidence before relying on any call.

Myriad Genetics, Inc. (SCV004019909) classified this variant as Likely benign with criteria provided. This represents a reputable clinical laboratory asserting a benign interpretation. While only a single submitter, it meets BP6 at supporting level.

Recorded classification: Uncertain significance

ClinGen Hereditary Breast, Ovarian and Pancreatic Cancer Expert Panel Specifications to the ACMG/AMP Variant Interpretation Guidelines for RAD51C Version 1.0.0 v1.0.0 lacked a usable explicit final combination framework, so generic ACMG/AMP 2015 final-combination rules were applied as fallback; applied criteria: PM2 supporting, BP6 supporting; combination = 1 supporting + 1 supporting benign, which maps to VUS.

Met Not met Not assessed Not applicable

NM_058216.3:c.431T>C (p.Ile144Thr) in RAD51C is a rare missense variant with extremely low population frequency (gnomAD v2.1 AF=0.0057%, v4.1 AF=0.014%). The ClinGen Hereditary Breast, Ovarian and Pancreatic Cancer Expert Panel has published RAD51C specifications (version 1.0.0) but no per-criterion rules were available for direct application; generic ACMG/AMP 2015 criteria were used as fallback.

The variant is absent or at extremely low frequency in population databases, meeting PM2 at supporting strength (gnomAD v4.1 overall AF=0.014%; 0 homozygotes). gnomAD v4.1 Middle Eastern subpopulation AF=0.279% is noted but remains below the BS1 threshold of 0.3%.

Myriad Genetics classified this variant as Likely benign (SCV004019909, criteria provided), meeting BP6 at supporting strength. However, the cited reference (PMID:25085752) is a BRCA1/BRCA2 reclassification algorithm and does not provide RAD51C-specific evidence.

In silico predictions are inconclusive: REVEL 0.314, BayesDel 0.041, SpliceAI delta 0.01, with Polyphen-2/SIFT suggesting possible damage but SNPs&GO predicting neutrality (PMID:23117857). Neither PP3 nor BP4 is met.

The variant has been observed in one Iraqi Jewish breast cancer proband (PMID:23117857) and one Danish HBOC family (PMID:26740214) but at insufficient frequency for PS4. No functional studies (PS3/BS3), segregation data (PP1/BS4), or de novo observations (PS2/PM6) are available.

The variant is not located in a statistically significant hotspot (PM1 not met), no alternative nucleotide changes at the same residue are established as pathogenic (PM5 not applicable), and RAD51C is not a gene with a low rate of benign missense variation (PP2 not met).

Overall classification: Uncertain significance. One supporting pathogenic criterion (PM2) is balanced by one supporting benign criterion (BP6), with all other criteria either not met or not applicable. This results in indeterminate classification under ACMG/AMP 2015 combination rules.

gnomAD v4.1

This variant is present in gnomAD v4.1 (AF= 0.000141875; MAF= 0.01419%, 229/1614096 alleles, homozygotes = 0) and has highest observed frequency in the Middle Eastern population (AF= 0.00279421; MAF= 0.27942%, 17/6084 alleles, homozygotes = 0); grpmax FAF= 0.0017798.

gnomAD v2.1

This variant is present in gnomAD v2.1 (AF= 5.65615e-05; MAF= 0.00566%, 16/282878 alleles, homozygotes = 0) and has highest observed frequency in the African/African American population (AF= 0.000240308; MAF= 0.02403%, 6/24968 alleles, homozygotes = 0); grpmax FAF= 0.00015629.

gnomAD-Canada

Not available in gnomAD-Canada v1.0.

ClinVar

This variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (18 clinical laboratories) and as Likely benign (1 clinical laboratory). (ClinVarID = 142840)

In silico

SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact for this variant (max delta score = 0.01). REVEL score = 0.314. BayesDel score = 0.0405109.

Functional

OncoKB did not identify variant-specific reviewed functional evidence for this variant; gene-level curated context is available for reviewer follow-up. RAD51C, a DNA repair protein, is altered by mutation or deletion in certain breast cancers.

Somatic

This variant does not lie in a statistically significant hotspot. This variant has not previously been reported in somatic cancers (COSMIC).
