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]

Fanconi anemia Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJul 25, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser947*) 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). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 558253). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Fanconi anemia (PMID: 9371798, 12955722, 24584348, 29098742). This variant is present in population databases (rs745568821, gnomAD 0.003%). -
