RCV000523904 | SCV000618480 | uncertain significance | not specified | 2017-05-15 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is denoted FANCC c.1546_1547delGCinsTT at the cDNA level, p.Ala516Phe (A516F) at the protein level. The surrounding sequence is CACT[delGC][insTT]TGAG. This in frame deletion and insertion occurs on the same allele (in cis) and results in the missense change of an Alanine to a Phenylalanine (GCT>TTT). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. Neither FANCC c.1546_1547delGCinsTT nor FANCC Ala516Phe were observed in large population cohorts (NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, The 1000 Genomes Consortium 2015, Lek 2016). Since Alanine and Phenylalanine differ in some properties, this is considered a semi-conservative amino acid substitution. FANCC Ala516Phe occurs at a position that is not conserved and is located in the cdc2 binding domain (Gordon & Buchwald 2000). In silico analyses predict that this variant is unlikely to alter protein structure or function. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether FANCC Ala516Phe is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. |
Ambry Genetics | RCV000563212 | SCV000673350 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2017-07-13 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.1546_1547delGCinsTT variant, located in coding exon 14 of the FANCC gene, results from an in-frame deletion of GC and insertion of TT at nucleotide positions 1546 to 1547. This results in the substitution of the alanine residue for a phenylalanine residue at codon 516, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is poorly conserved in available vertebrate species. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. |
