Description

The c.572-1G>C intronic variant results from a G to C substitution one nucleotide before coding exon 4 of the RAD51C gene. This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice acceptor site; however, direct evidence is insufficient at this time (Ambry internal data). Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as likely pathogenic.

Description

This variant causes a G>C nucleotide substitution at the -1 position of intron 3 of the RAD51C gene. Splice site prediction tools predict that this variant may have a significant impact on RNA splicing. A minigene splicing assay has shown that this variant resulted in the out-of-frame skipping of exon 4 (PMID: 35740625). This variant has been reported in an individual affected with ovarian cancer (PMID: 26261251). Different substitutions in canonical splice site positions at this acceptor site, c.572-1G>T and c.572-2A>G, have been reported in one individual each affected with breast cancer or ovarian cancer (PMID: 27908594, 30949688). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of RAD51C function is a known mechanism of disease. Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic.
