Invitae RCV000546890 SCV000626197 likely pathogenic Fanconi anemia 2019-11-18 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 38 of the FANCA gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and likely results in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has been observed in combination with another FANCA variant in individuals with clinical features of Fanconi anemia (PMID: 29098742, Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 456123). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. Donor and acceptor splice site variants typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in FANCA are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19367192). 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.
