Invitae | RCV001231125 | SCV001403632 | uncertain significance | Fanconi anemia | 2019-11-18 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces lysine with tryptophan at codon 143 of the FANCA protein (p.Lys143Trp). The lysine residue is weakly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between lysine and tryptophan. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with FANCA-related conditions. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. |
