RCV001376844 | SCV001574023 | likely pathogenic | Fanconi anemia | 2020-07-22 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is a gross deletion of the genomic region encompassing exon(s) 18-43 of the FANCD2 gene. The 5' boundary is likely confined to intron 17. The 3' end of this event is unknown as it extends through the termination codon beyond the assayed region for this gene and may encompass additional genes. While this deletion is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to create a truncated protein product or disrupt mRNA translation. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with FANCD2-related conditions. Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. This variant disrupts the p.Arg815 amino acid residue in FANCD2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 17436244, 27041517). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. 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. |
