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 22 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 6.7, offset of 47, new splice context is: tggcagtgtaatttccacAGatc. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP3
Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
PP5
Variant 16-89796020-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr16-89796020-T-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 557309.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr16-89796020-T-C is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Fanconi anemia Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 17, 2023This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 10 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). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with fanconi anemia (PMID: 15643609, 33224012). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 557309). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
