| Ambry Genetics | RCV000129955 | SCV000184779 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2022-10-15 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.Q508E variant (also known as c.1522C>G), located in coding exon 10 of the RAD50 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 1522. The glutamine at codon 508 is replaced by glutamic acid, an amino acid with highly 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. |
| Invitae | RCV000129955 | SCV000829800 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2023-11-02 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces glutamine, which is neutral and polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 508 of the RAD50 protein (p.Gln508Glu). This variant is present in population databases (rs587781749, gnomAD 0.0009%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with RAD50-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 141441). 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 RAD50 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. |
