Genes affected
FANCC (HGNC:3584): (FA complementation group C) 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 C. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: FANCC c.455dupA (p.Asn152LysfsX9) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.6e-05 in 250668 control chromosomes. c.455dupA has been reported in the literature in at-least one individual affected with Fanconi Anemia and has been subsequently cited by others in settings of tumor testing (example, Yates_2006, Ameziane_2008, Pilonetto_2017, Kato_2017, Cheng_2015, Waszak_2018). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Five 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 (n=4)/likely pathogenic(n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Asn152Lysfs*9) in the FANCC gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in FANCC are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17924555). This variant is present in population databases (rs774170058, gnomAD 0.004%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Fanconi anemia (PMID: 16429406). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 409657). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Frameshift variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease; Observed in individuals with colorectal, medulloblastoma, melanoma, and stomach cancer (PMID: 26689913, 29625052, 29753700, 33050356); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 35417938, 29038235, 25801821, 28717661, 29753700, 17924555, 26689913, 29922827, 29625052, 33050356, 36451132, 16429406, 37558815, Kolesnikova2024[CaseReport])

The c.455dupA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 4 of the FANCC gene, results from a duplication of A at nucleotide position 455, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.N152Kfs*9). This mutation (designated as c.455_456dupA) has been reported in the compound heterozygous state with another FANCC mutation in a patient with Fanconi anemia (Yates J et al. Hum. Mutat. 2006 Feb;27:214). It was also observed in an 11-year-old male with medulloblastoma (Waszak SM et al. Lancet Oncol. 2018 06;19:785-798). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
