The RAD50 gene encodes a protein that works as part of the MRN complex, which detects and repairs double-strand breaks in DNA. This protein is essential for cell growth and viability and helps preserve genome stability through DNA repair, cell cycle checkpoint activation, telomere maintenance, and meiotic recombination. Inherited mutations in RAD50 cause Nijmegen breakage syndrome-like disorder, characterized by progressive microcephaly, short stature, and an increased risk of cancer. RAD50 functions as a tumor suppressor, and loss-of-function mutations in it are found in several human cancers.
This variant
RAD50 encodes an MRN-complex protein essential for DNA double-strand-break repair, and its loss of function causes Nijmegen breakage syndrome-like disorder and contributes to cancer as a tumor suppressor. For p.Leu370Phe, a missense change absent from ~2 million population alleles with benign-leaning in silico predictions but no clinical or functional data, the VUS classification means neither a damaging nor a benign role in RAD50-associated disease is established.

No RAD50 ClinGen CSPEC/VCEP exists, so generic ACMG/AMP 2015 rules apply: PM2 (moderate) and BP4 (supporting) conflict in direction and meet no combination threshold, yielding VUS.
Classification rationale
PM2BP4VUS
RAD50 c.1110A>Cmissense
PM2 (Moderate): absent from gnomAD v2.1, v4.1, and gnomAD-Canada — AF = 0 across ~2 million alleles, below the <0.1% cutoff. BP4 (Supporting): REVEL 0.131, BayesDel -0.441836, and SpliceAI max delta 0.01 are concordant for no impact. Final: Variant of Uncertain Significance — the conflicting 1 moderate (PM2) + 1 supporting (BP4) combination meets no Pathogenic, Likely Pathogenic, Benign, or Likely Benign threshold under generic ACMG/AMP 2015.
PM2 + BP4→VUS
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.
