Genes affected
FANCM (HGNC:23168): (FA complementation group M) The Fanconi anemia complementation group (FANC) currently includes FANCA, FANCB, FANCC, FANCD1 (also called BRCA2), FANCD2, FANCE, FANCF, FANCG, FANCI, FANCJ (also called BRIP1), FANCL, FANCM and FANCN (also called PALB2). The previously defined group FANCH is the same as FANCA. Fanconi anemia is a genetically heterogeneous recessive disorder characterized by cytogenetic instability, hypersensitivity to DNA crosslinking agents, increased chromosomal breakage, and defective DNA repair. The members of the Fanconi anemia complementation group do not share sequence similarity; they are related by their assembly into a common nuclear protein complex. This gene encodes the protein for complementation group M. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2015]

Fanconi anemia Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 27, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg658*) in the FANCM gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in FANCM are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 29895858, 30075111). This variant is present in population databases (rs368728266, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has been observed to be homozygous in an individual with breast cancer and other oncological malignancies and in an individual with breast cancer, pancytopenia, and chromosome fragility (PMID: 28837162). In addition, this variant has been observed to be heterozygous in individuals affected with ovarian cancer, polycythemia vera, and breast cancer (PMID: 21681190, 26822949, 29351780, 29287190, 28033443, 28881617); and in a large case-control study, this variant was observed more frequently in individuals with ER-negative breast cancer (OR=2.44, 95% CI [1.12-5.34], p=0.034) or triple-negative breast cancer (OR=3.79, 95% CI [1.56-9.18], p=0.009) than among controls (PMID: 31700994). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 444327). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on protein structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental data suggest that this variant might not result in nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. However, experimental studies showed that it affects FANCM function (PMID: 31700994). This variant disrupts the C-terminal ERCC4 nuclease domain and the helix-hairpin-helix (HhH) motifs of the FANCM protein, which are critical for the interaction between FANCM and FAAP24, chromatin localization of the FANCM/FAAP24 complex and the activation of the FA core complex (PMID: 17289582, 23932590, 18174376, 19379763, 24003026). While functional studies have not been performed to directly test the effect of this variant on FANCM protein function, this suggests that disruption of this region of the protein may be causative of disease. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
