Description
This variant is denoted FANCC c.1516T>C at the cDNA level, p.Trp506Arg (W506R) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Tryptophan to an Arginine (TGG>CGG). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. FANCC Trp506Arg was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Since Tryptophan and Arginine differ in polarity, charge, size or other properties, this is considered a non-conservative amino acid substitution. FANCC Trp506Arg occurs at a position that is variable across species and is located in the cdc2 binding domain (Gordon 2000). In silico analyses predict that this variant is unlikely to alter protein structure or function. Based on currently available information, it is unclear whether FANCC Trp506Arg is pathogenic or benign. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance.
