Genes affected
FANCL (HGNC:20748): (FA complementation group L) This gene encodes a ubiquitin ligase that is a member of the Fanconi anemia complementation group (FANC). Members of this group are related by their assembly into a common nuclear protein complex rather than by sequence similarity. This gene encodes the protein for complementation group L that mediates monoubiquitination of FANCD2 as well as FANCI. Fanconi anemia is a genetically heterogeneous recessive disorder characterized by cytogenetic instability, hypersensitivity to DNA crosslinking agents, increased chromosomal breakage, and defective DNA repair. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2018]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submittercurationSema4, Sema4Jun 24, 2021- -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 02, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser351Phefs*2) in the FANCL gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 25 amino acid(s) of the FANCL protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs765729177, gnomAD 0.05%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (PMID: 28678401, 30306255, 30625039, 36451132). This variant is also known as c.1049_1050del (p.Q355fs) and c.1066_1067del (p.Ser356Phefs*2). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 408227). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. This variant disrupts the PHD/RING finger domain of the FANCL protein, which is necessary for FANCL interaction with Ube2t and Ube2w, and subsequent monoubiquitination of FANCD2 (PMID: 12973351, 17938197, 19111657, 24389026, 26149689). While functional studies have not been performed to directly test the effect of this variant on FANCL protein function, this suggests that disruption of this region of the protein is causative of disease. 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. -
