Genes affected
ZNF276 (HGNC:23330): (zinc finger protein 276) Enables sequence-specific double-stranded DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in kinetochore. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
FANCA (HGNC:3582): (FA complementation group A) 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 A. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. Mutations in this gene are the most common cause of Fanconi anemia. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.014194139 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 3.2, offset of 24, new splice context is: aagGTgtcc. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 16-89740803-C-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr16-89740803-C-G is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 456123.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Fanconi anemia Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 25, 2024This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 38 of the FANCA gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in FANCA are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19367192). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.003%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Fanconi anemia (PMID: 29098742; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 456123). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
FANCA-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesFeb 26, 2024The FANCA c.3828+1G>C variant is predicted to disrupt the GT donor site and interfere with normal splicing. This variant is predicted to abolish the consensus exon 38 splice donor site according to available splice prediction programs (Alamut Visual plus v1.6.1) and has been reported in a patient with Fanconi anemia who also harbored a large deletion of the FANCA gene presumably on the opposite chromosome (Kimble et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29098742). A different variant affecting the same splice site, c.3828+1G>T has also been reported to cause FA (Castella et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 21273304) suggesting that disruption of the exon 38 splice donor site is not tolerated. This variant is reported in 0.0031% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD and is interpreted as pathogenic in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/456123/). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice donor site in FANCA are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
