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]

The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00014 (12/85380 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is consistent with pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in individuals with Fanconi anemia (FA) (PMIDs: 31192125 (2019), 29098742 (2018), 27577878 (2017), 22778927 (2012), 19367192 (2009), 17924555 (2008), 15643609 (2005)) and has been described affected individuals in the homozygous state as well as in trans with another pathogenic FANCA variant. One functional study suggests that this variant has similar properties as the wild-type in regards to phosphorylation and interaction with FANCC, but additional functional studies are needed to conclude this variant’s overall impact on gene and gene product (PMID: 12444097 (2002)). Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is damaging. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

DNA sequence analysis of the FANCA gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.3391A>G, in exon 34 that results in an amino acid change, p.Thr1131Ala. This sequence change has been previously described in several patients with a clinical diagnosis of Fanconi anemia (PMIDs: 19278965, 9371798, 15643609); in some patients in a biallelic state with multi-exonic deletions (PMIDs: 17924555, 19367192) and in one patient in a homozygous state (PMID: 22778927). Some experimental studies showed that the mutant protein behaved similar to wild type-FANCA with respect to its interaction with FANCC, phosphorylation and localization to the nuclei (PMID: 12444097); however, authors proposed that further studies analyzing its mRNA and protein expression are required. The p.Thr1131Ala change affects a highly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the FANCA protein that is known to be functional. In-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL) provide contradictory results for the p.Thr1131Ala substitution. This sequence change has been described in the gnomAD database with a low population frequency of 0.0083% (dbSNP rs574034197). These collective evidences indicate that this sequence change is likely pathogenic. -

Published functional studies demonstrate that the p.(T1131A) variant significantly decreases FANCD2 monoubiquitination (PMID: 28864460); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25525159, 1792455, 27577878, 12444097, 9371798, 19367192, 15643609, 17924555, 26556299, 35417938, 36493725, 36744932, 37865086, 36139606, 31192125, 33332384, 29641532, 22778927, 29098742, 28864460, 39037077, 37688579) -

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

This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1131 of the FANCA protein (p.Thr1131Ala). This variant is present in population databases (rs574034197, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Fanconi anemia (PMID: 1792455, 1927896, 9371798, 12444097, 15643609, 19367192, 22778927). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 237048). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt FANCA protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect FANCA function (PMID: 12444097). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
