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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 16-89742802-CCT-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr16-89742802-CCT-C is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 370466.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr16-89742802-CCT-C is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic]. Variant chr16-89742802-CCT-C is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Lifecell International Pvt. Ltd	-	A Heterozygous Frameshift variant c.3761_3762delAG in Exon 37 of the FANCA gene that results in the amino acid substitution p.Glu1254fs*23 was identified. The observed variant novel in gnomAD exomes and genomes, respectively. The severity of the impact of this variant on the protein is high, based on the effect of the protein and REVEL score . Rare Exome Variant Ensemble Learner (REVEL) is an ensembl method for predicting the pathogenicity of missense variants based on a combination of scores from 13 individual tools: MutPred, FATHMM v2.3, VEST 3.0, PolyPhen-2, SIFT, PROVEAN, MutationAssessor, MutationTaster, LRT, GERP++, SiPhy, phyloP, and phastCons. The REVEL score for an individual missense variant can range from 0 to 1, with higher scores reflecting greater likelihood that the variant is disease-causing. ClinVar has also classified this variant as Pathogenic (variant ID: 370466). This variant was reported among the patients for Fanconi Anemia (Levran O et al., 1997). Based on the above evidence this variant has been classified as Pathogenic according to the ACMG guidelines. -
