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]

Submissions by phenotype

Fanconi anemia Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpFeb 16, 2023This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 2 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 (rs587777945, gnomAD 0.003%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with a hematological condition (PMID: 34008892). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 135543). 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. -
FANCC-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesDec 14, 2022The FANCC c.166-2A>G variant is predicted to disrupt the AG splice acceptor site and interfere with normal splicing. This variant has been reported in the homozygous state in an individual with hematological abnormalities (Marinakis et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 34008892. Table S3). This variant is reported in 0.0029% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/9-98009800-T-C). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice acceptor site in FANCC are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsFeb 01, 2022The c.166-2A>G intronic variant results from an A to G substitution two nucleotides upstream from coding exon 2 in the FANCC gene. This variant has been identified as homozygous in a carrier with hematological abnormalities (Marinakis NM et al. Am J Med Genet A, 2021 08;185:2561-2571).This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice acceptor site; however, direct evidence is insufficient at this time (Ambry internal data). 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. -
