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: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: FANCC c.996+1G>T is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing and loss of FANCC function. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Three predict the variant abolishes a 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 8e-06 in 251450 control chromosomes. c.996+1G>T has been reported in the literature in at-least one presumed compound heterozygous individual affected with Fanconi Anemia (Pagliara_2023) and heterozygous individuals affected with Medulloblastoma, and Endometrial cancer (Gordhandas_2023,Waszak_2018). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 37865086, 36744932, 29753700). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 265137). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

NM_000136.2(FANCC):c.996+1G>T is a canonical splice variant classified as likely pathogenic in the context of Fanconi anemia, FANCC-related. c.996+1G>T has not been observed in cases with relevant disease. Functional assessments of this variant are not available in the literature. c.996+1G>T has been observed in population frequency databases (gnomAD: AMR 0.003%). In summary, NM_000136.2(FANCC):c.996+1G>T is a canonical splice variant in a gene where loss of function is a known mechanism of disease, is predicted to disrupt protein function, and has been observed more frequently in cases with the relevant disease than in healthy populations. Please note: this variant was assessed in the context of healthy population screening. -

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 10 of the FANCC gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in FANCC are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17924555). This variant is present in population databases (rs370510954, gnomAD 0.003%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of FANCC-related conditions (PMID: 29753700, 34654685). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 265137). 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 currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.996+1G>T intronic variant results from a G to T substitution one nucleotide after coding exon 9 of the FANCC gene. This alteration has been reported in an individual diagnosed with medulloblastoma (Waszak SM et al. Lancet Oncol., 2018 06;19:785-798). This alteration was also identified in 1 of 2184 patients with a personal history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (Espinel W et al. Cancers (Basel), 2022 May;14:). 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; however, direct evidence is insufficient at this time (Ambry internal data). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as likely pathogenic. -
