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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJun 03, 2024Variant summary: FANCA c.3157C>T (p.Arg1053Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00021 in 251440 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in FANCA causing Fanconi Anemia (0.00021 vs 0.0022), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.3157C>T has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (Chandrasekharappa_2017). This report does 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 has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 28678401). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 408205). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGenetic Services Laboratory, University of ChicagoNov 02, 2020DNA sequence analysis of the FANCA gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.3157C>T, in exon 32 that results in an amino acid change, p.Arg1053Cys. This sequence change does not appear to have been previously described in patients with FANCA-related disorders and has been described in the gnomAD database with a low population frequency of 0.087% in the Latino subpopulation (dbSNP rs376103033). The p.Arg1053Cys change affects a poorly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the FANCA protein that is not known to be functional. The p.Arg1053Cys substitution appears to be benign using several in-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL). Due to these evidences and the lack of functional studies, the clinical significance of the p.Arg1053Cys change remains unknown at this time. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingCenter for Genomics, Ann and Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of ChicagoApr 02, 2021FANCA NM_000135.3 exon 32 p.Arg1053Cys (c.3157C>T): This variant has not been reported in the literature but is present in 0.02% (4/15274) of Latino alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/16-89749812-G-A?dataset=gnomad_r3). This variant is present in ClinVar (Variation ID:408205). This variant amino acid Cysteine (Cys) is present in several species including multiple primates and other mammals and is not well conserved among evolutionarily distant species; this suggests that this variant may not impact the protein. Additional computational prediction tools do not suggest an impact. In summary, data on this variant is insufficient for disease classification. Therefore, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoJul 03, 2024The FANCA c.3157C>T (p.Arg1053Cys) variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals affected with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) (PMID: 26580448 (2015)), head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) (PMID: 28678401 (2017)), and ovarian cancer (PMID: 32546565 (2021)). This variant has also been reported in reportedly healthy individuals (PMID: 32546565 (2021)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00087 (31/35434 chromosomes in Admixed American subpopulation (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is higher than would generally be expected for pathogenic variants in this gene. 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. -
