The FANCG c.1480+1G>C intronic change results in a G to C substitution at the +1 position of intron 11 of the FANCG gene. RNA sequencing data indicates that this variant leads to the retention of the intron, which leads to the formation of a premature termination codon and subsequent nonsense-mediated decay (internal data). Variants that disrupt donor or acceptor splice sites generally result in a loss of protein function, and loss-of-function variants in FANCG are recognized as pathogenic (PMID: 12552564,16199547). This variant has been reported in the literature as homozygous and compound heterozygous in individuals affected with Fanconi Anemia (PMID: 9806548, 12552564, 21659346, 31839986). It has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.0044%% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic. -

Fanconi anemia Pathogenic:2
Variant summary: FANCG c.1480+1G>C is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Three predict the variant abolishes a 5' splicing donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2e-05 in 251494 control chromosomes. c.1480+1G>C has been reported in the literature as a homozygous and compound heterozygous genotype in multiple individuals affected with Fanconi Anemia (Example: Tsangaris_2011, Lauhasurayotin_2019, Auerbach_2003, deWinter_1998) . These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Four clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 11 of the FANCG 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 FANCG are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 12552564). This variant is present in population databases (rs149616199, gnomAD 0.004%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with Fanconi anemia, complementation group G (PMID: 9806548, 12552564). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is also known as IVS11+1G>C. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 6717). 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. -
FANCG-related disorder Pathogenic:1
The FANCG c.1480+1G>C variant is predicted to disrupt the GT donor site and interfere with normal splicing. This variant, also known as IVS11+1G>C, has been reported in several patients with Fanconi anemia and is a founder variant in the French Canadian population (de Winter et al. 1998. PubMed ID: 9806548; Auerbach et al. 2003. PubMed ID: 12552564; Gille et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22778927; http://www.rockefeller.edu/fanconi/). This variant is reported in 0.0044% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice donor site in FANCG are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
