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

Classification made for transcript

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 0.029532967 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 9.9, offset of 4, new splice context is: gtgtttgctgttctcggcAGgac. Cryptic site results in frameshift 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 16-89758707-T-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr16-89758707-T-G is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 557092.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr16-89758707-T-G is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 557092). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with Fanconi anemia (PMID: 15643609). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.01%). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 29 of the FANCA 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 FANCA are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19367192). -

Genetic Services Laboratory, University of Chicago

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

DNA sequence analysis of the FANCA gene demonstrated a splice mutation in the canonical acceptor site of intron 29. This pathogenic sequence change has been previously described in patients with Fanconi anemia (PMID: 15643609) and is predicted to affect normal splicing of the FANCA mRNA and result in a truncated protein. This sequence change was identified with another pathogenic FANCA variant in a patient. -
