RCV001285944 | SCV001472457 | pathogenic | Hereditary factor VIII deficiency disease | 2019-12-12 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The F8 c.6995G>A; p.Trp2332Ter variant, also known as Trp2313Stop, is reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with moderate to severe hemophilia A (Jayandharan 2005, Johnsen 2017). This variant is absent from general population databases (Exome Variant Server, Genome Aggregation Database), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant results in a premature termination codon in the last exon of the F8 gene. While this may not lead to nonsense-mediated decay, it is expected to create a truncated protein. Additionally, another nonsense variant at this codon (c.6996G>A; p.Trp2332Ter) and several downstream truncating variants have been described in individuals with hemophilia A and are considered pathogenic (Green 2008, Johnsen 2017, Nair 2010). Based on available information, the c.6995G>A; p.Trp2332Ter variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Green PM et al.
