RCV001802578 | SCV002048948 | pathogenic | Hereditary factor VIII deficiency disease | 2020-12-30 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The F8 c.4758G>A; p.Trp1586Ter variant is reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with moderate to severe hemophilia A (see F8 database and references therein, Pinto 2016, Villarreal-Martinez 2020). In vitro functional analyses demonstrate that individuals with this variant have factor VIII activity of <5% (F8 database, Pinto 2016, Villarreal-Martinez 2020). This variant is absent from general population databases (Exome Variant Server, Genome Aggregation Database), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. Additionally, another nonsense variant at this codon (c.4757G>A, p.Trp1586Ter) has been reported in individuals with severe hemophilia A and is considered pathogenic (F8 database, Laurie 2007). This variant induces an early termination codon and is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: F8 variant database link: https://f8-db.eahad.org/ Laurie AD et al.
