Fanconi anemia complementation group C Uncertain:4
- -
This variant was determined to be of uncertain significance according to ACMG Guidelines, 2015 [PMID:25741868]. -
- -
The FANCC c.1249G>A (p.Glu417Lys) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.02% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). The in silico tool REVEL predicts a benign effect on protein function, but to our knowledge this prediction has not been confirmed by functional studies. In summary, the evidence currently available is insufficient to determine the clinical significance of this variant. It has therefore been classified as of uncertain significance. -

In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Observed in individuals with breast cancer and in unaffected controls (PMID: 33471991, 32885271); Absent in individuals with ovarian cancer but observed in unaffected controls (PMID: 32546565); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 14695169, Gordon2000[Book], 33471991, 32546565, 32885271) -
The FANCC c.1249G>A (p.Glu417Lys) variant has been reported in the published literature in an individual with early-onset breast cancer (PMID: 32885271 (2021)). However, in multiple association studies, this variant has been reported both in individuals with breast and ovarian cancer as well as in reportedly healthy individuals (PMIDs: 14695169 (2003), 32546565 (2021), 33471991 (2021) see also LOVD (https://databases.lovd.nl/shared/variants/FANCC)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.0002 (5/24958 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 conflicting predictions that this variant is benign or damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
Fanconi anemia Uncertain:2
This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 417 of the FANCC protein (p.Glu417Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs140687953, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 21520333). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 182485). 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 FANCC protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -

Malignant tumor of breast Uncertain:1
The FANCC p.Glu417Lys variant was identified in 1 of 172 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.006) from individuals or families with breast cancer and was present in 1 of 600 control chromosomes (frequency: 0.002) from healthy individuals (Seal 2003). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs140687953) as "With Uncertain significance allele", ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by GeneDx, Invitae and Ambry Genetics), and LOVD 3.0 (not classified). The variant was identified in control databases in 18 of 277164 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00007 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: African in 5 of 24026 chromosomes (freq: 0.0002), Latino in 2 of 34418 chromosomes (freq: 0.00006), and European Non-Finnish in 11 of 126668 chromosomes (freq: 0.00009), while the variant was not observed in the Other, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, European Finnish, or South Asian populations. The p.Glu417 residue is conserved in mammals but not in more distantly related organisms; however four out of five computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein; this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Benign:1
This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
