Genes affected
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]

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

The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.002%). Predicted Consequence/Location: Start-lost: reinitiation of translation may occur at a downstream alternate start codon but still result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function as there have been pathogenic variants reported upstream of the alternate start codon. The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic with clinical assertions and evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000435134 /PMID: 10090479). Therefore, this variant is classified as Likely pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

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

This sequence change affects the initiator methionine of the FANCA mRNA. The next in-frame methionine is located at codon 116. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. Disruption of the initiator codon has been observed in individuals with Fanconi anemia (PMID: 10090479, 15643609, 16084127, 22778927, 23898106, 24584348). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 435134). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
