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]

Collection Method:clinical testing

The stop gained variant c.811C>T (p.Gln271Ter) in FANCA gene has been reported previously in patients affected with Fanconi anemia (Chandra et al., 2005; Levran et al., 2005). The p.Pro790GlnfsTer98 variant is reported with the allele frequency (0.001%) in the gnomAD Exomes and is novel (not in any individuals) in 1000 Genomes. It has been submitted to ClinVar with varying interpretations: Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic. The nucleotide change in FANCA is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation. Loss-offunction variants in FANCA are known to be pathogenic (Moghrabi et al., 2009). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln271*) in the FANCA gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in FANCA are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19367192). This variant is present in population databases (rs372163487, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Fanconi anemia (PMID: 15643609, 16084127, 21659346, 29098742). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 371093). 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. -
