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]

FANCC links:

AOPEP (HGNC:1361): (aminopeptidase O (putative)) This gene encodes a member of the M1 zinc aminopeptidase family. The encoded protein is a zinc-dependent metallopeptidase that catalyzes the removal of an amino acid from the amino terminus of a protein or peptide. This protein may play a role in the generation of angiotensin IV. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2010]

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

To the best of our knowledge, the variant has not been reported in the published literature. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000039 (5/129150 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using software algorithms for the prediction of the effect of nucleotide changes on splicing yielded predictions that this variant may affect proper FANCC mRNA splicing . Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.843+5G>A intronic variant results from a G to A substitution 5 nucleotides after coding exon 7 in the FANCC gene. This alteration was detected in a cohort of 1663 Brazilian breast cancer patients who underwent hereditary multigene panel testing (Guindalini RSC et al. Sci Rep, 2022 Mar;12:4190). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. RNA studies have demonstrated this alteration results in abnormal splicing in the set of samples tested (Ambry internal data). Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: FANCC c.843+5G>A alters a conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Two predict the variant abolishes the canonical 5' splicing donor site. Two predict the variant weakens the canonical 5' splicing donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.8e-05 in 251412 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.843+5G>A in individuals affected with Fanconi Anemia Group C and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation (LP, n=2; VUS, n=3). Multiple laboratories reported the variant with conflicting assessments. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change falls in intron 8 of the FANCC gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the FANCC protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs369082921, gnomAD 0.008%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FANCC-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 216291). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. 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. -

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: no assertion criteria provided

Collection Method: clinical testing

The FANCC c.843+5G>A variant is predicted to interfere with splicing. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.0080% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
