Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points: 2P and 4B. PM2BP4_Strong
The NM_000135.4(FANCA):c.897C>G(p.Phe299Leu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000137 in 1,460,954 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 16/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. F299S) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Fanconi anemia    Uncertain:1 
This sequence change replaces phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 299 of the FANCA protein (p.Phe299Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs765341703, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FANCA-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 643439). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt FANCA protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -
not provided    Uncertain:1 
The FANCA c.897C>G (p.Phe299Leu) variant has not been reported in individuals with FANCA-related conditions in the published literature. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00016 (3/18390 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
