Genes affected
SLX4 (HGNC:23845): (SLX4 structure-specific endonuclease subunit) This gene encodes a protein that functions as an assembly component of multiple structure-specific endonucleases. These endonuclease complexes are required for repair of specific types of DNA lesions and critical for cellular responses to replication fork failure. Mutations in this gene were found in patients with Fanconi anemia. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2016]

Submissions by phenotype

Fanconi anemia Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpOct 19, 2022This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 278 of the SLX4 protein (p.Arg278Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs141597706, gnomAD 0.08%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with cancer (PMID: 23211700, 30306255, 30613976). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 456338). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpNov 03, 2022Variant summary: BTBD12 (also known as SLX4) c.832C>T (p.Arg278Trp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00021 in 282844 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00085 within the Latino subpopulation in the gnomAD database. c.832C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with breast/ovarian cancer and with renal cancer (e.g. de Garibay_2013, Bonache_2018, Lee_2018, Rizzolo_2019). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Fanconi Anemia. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Three ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
