RCV000807250 | SCV000947293 | pathogenic | Fanconi anemia complementation group O | 2015-08-02 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. While no subgenic deletions of exons 1-5 in RAD51C have been reported in the literature, experimental studies have shown that this region contains sequence elements that are crucial for RAD51C protein function (PMID: 12966089, 14704354, 15126333). Also, a deletion of 27 nucleotides that affects the first 5 codons of RAD51C (c.-13_14del27) has been reported in a family affected with breast/ovarian cancer and leukemia (PMID: 21750962), probably reflecting the deleterious effect that the loss of the natural initiator methionine has on RAD51C translation. This sequence change is a gross deletion of the genomic region encompassing exons 1-5 of the RAD51C gene. This deletion extends to both edges of the assayed region, and the 5' and 3' boundaries of this event are not known. However, it is expected to result in the loss of 74% of the RAD51C protein (p.Met1_Ala279del), including the initiator methionine. |
