Ambry Genetics | RCV001009663 | SCV001169758 | likely pathogenic | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2021-10-29 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.1004_1005delGCinsAA variant (also known as p.C335*), located in coding exon 8 of the RAD51C gene, results from an in-frame deletion of GC and insertion of AA at nucleotide positions 1004 to 1005. This changes the amino acid from a cysteine to a stop codon within coding exon 8. This alteration occurs at the 3' terminus of theRAD51C gene, is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, and only impacts the last 42 amino acids of the protein. However, premature stop codons are typically deleterious in nature and the impacted region is critical for protein function (Ambry internal data). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. |
