Genes affected
FASN (HGNC:3594): (fatty acid synthase) The enzyme encoded by this gene is a multifunctional protein. Its main function is to catalyze the synthesis of palmitate from acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA, in the presence of NADPH, into long-chain saturated fatty acids. In some cancer cell lines, this protein has been found to be fused with estrogen receptor-alpha (ER-alpha), in which the N-terminus of FAS is fused in-frame with the C-terminus of ER-alpha.

Submissions by phenotype

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsOct 02, 2023The c.5062G>A (p.A1688T) alteration is located in exon 29 (coding exon 28) of the FASN gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 5062, causing the alanine (A) at amino acid position 1688 to be replaced by a threonine (T). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Epileptic encephalopathy Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 21, 2023This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1688 of the FASN protein (p.Ala1688Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs368428251, gnomAD 0.03%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FASN-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 531015). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. 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. -
