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]

This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 221 of the FANCA protein (p.Met221Val). 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. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with pancreatic cancer (PMID: 15591268). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 408195). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt FANCA protein function. 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. -

The FANCA c.661A>G (p.Met221Val) variant has been reported in the published literature in an individual with pancreatic cancer (PMID: 15591268 (2004)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000079 (10/127146 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. 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 benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Variant summary: FANCA c.661A>G (p.Met221Val) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Fanconi anaemia group A protein, N-terminal domain (IPR031729) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.2e-05 in 249370 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.661A>G has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with Pancreatic cancer (Rogers_2004). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Fanconi Anemia. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 15591268). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 408195). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
