Invitae RCV000630961 SCV000751937 pathogenic Fanconi anemia 2024-01-25 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 951 of the FANCA protein (p.Arg951Gln). This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 29, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. This variant is present in population databases (rs755922289, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Fanconi anemia (PMID: 17924555, 22778927, 24584348). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 526433). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects FANCA function (PMID: 12697994). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). This variant disrupts the p.Arg951 amino acid residue in FANCA. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 17924555, 22778927, 24349332, 24584348, 26799702). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Genetic Services Laboratory, University of Chicago RCV001569733 SCV002070494 likely pathogenic not provided 2020-02-14 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The sequence change, c.2852G>A, in exon 29 results in an amino acid change, p.Arg951Gln. This sequence change has been described in the gnomAD database with a low population frequency of 0.01% in European sub-population (dbSNP rs755922289). The p.Arg951Gln change affects a highly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the FANCA protein that is not known to be functional. The p.Arg951Gln substitution appears to be deleterious using several in-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL). The p.Arg951Gln change has been reported in several individuals with Fanconi anemia (PMID: 17924555, 22778927, 24584348). In one of these individuals, this sequence change was shown to be in trans with a different pathogenic sequence change (PMID: 24584348). A different pathogenic sequence change affecting the same amino acid residue, p.Arg951Trp, has also been described in patients with FANCA-related disorders (PMID: 22778927, 17924555, 24584348, 26799702, 17924555, 24584348, 24349332). Functional studies have demonstrated disrupted protein function in the presence of the p.Arg951Gln change (PMID: 12697994). These collective evidences indicate that this sequence change is likely pathogenic.
