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]

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change is predicted to result in an abnormal transcript, which may be degraded, or may lead to the production of a truncated FANCA protein with potentially abnormal function. This pathogenic sequence change has previously been described in patients with Fanconi anemia (Morgan NV, et al., 1999; Savino M et al., 1997; De Rocco D et al., 2014; Nicchia E, et al., 2015). -

Fanconi anemia Pathogenic:2

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu288*) in the FANCA gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in FANCA are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19367192). This variant is present in population databases (rs148100796, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with Fanconi anemia (PMID: 10521298, 12697994, 22778927). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 134239). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences
Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method: clinical testing

The FANCA c.862G>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Glu288*). This variant has been reported previously to be causative for Fanconi anemia (Morgan et al. 1999. PubMed ID: 10521298; Gille et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22778927). This variant is reported in 0.011% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD and is interpreted as pathogenic in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/134239/). Nonsense variants in FANCA are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
