Genes affected

FANCG (HGNC:3588): (FA complementation group G) 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 G. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.07811664 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 4.1, offset of 12, new splice context is: ccctttacggaaatccacAGaga. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 9-35076871-C-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr9-35076871-C-G is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 929687.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr9-35076871-C-G is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 6 of the FANCG 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 FANCG are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 12552564). This variant is present in population databases (rs767518932, gnomAD 0.003%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FANCG-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 929687). 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. -
