Overview

Fanconi anemia an autosomal recessive genetic disorder that is caused by mutations in various genes of the FANC family.

Causes

There are no environmental-related causes of Fanconi anemia. The cause of Fanconi anemia is a genetic mutation in the hematopoietic stem cell. There are at least 13 genes of which mutations are known to cause FA.[1][2][3][4][5] In the past, the genetic cause was unknown, but the advent of DNA sequencing led to the discovery of multiple genes associated with the disease.

Commonly associated genes

  • FANCA
  • FANCB
  • FANCC
  • FANCD1 (BRCA2)
  • FANCD2
  • FANCE
  • FANCF
  • FANCG

Less commonly associated genes

  • FANCI
  • FANCJ (BRIP1)
  • FANCL
  • FANCM
  • FANCN (PALB2)
  • FANCP (SLX4)
  • FANCS (BRCA1)
  • RAD51C
  • XPF

Mechanism

For an autosomal recessive disorder, both parents must be carriers in order for a child to inherit the condition. If both parents are carriers, there is a 25% risk with each pregnancy for the mother to have an affected child. The carrier frequency in the Ashkenazi Jewish population is about 1/90. Genetic counseling and genetic testing is recommended for families that may be carriers of Fanconi anemia. The presence of a mutation in one of the above genes results in chromosomal instability and ineffective DNA damage response, resulting in the clinical manifestations of the disease.
