About Fanconi Anemia Carrier Test | FA Carrier in Wheeling
Fanconi anemia carrier testing looks for two mutations in the FANCC gene: IVS4+4A>T and 322delG.
Fanconi anemia is a rare genetic condition characterized by bone marrow failure, physical abnormalities, and an increased risk of certain cancers. It is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern, meaning that a person must inherit a mutation from each parent to be affected.
The FANCC gene provides instructions for a protein involved in DNA repair. The two mutations detected by this test, IVS4+4A>T and 322delG, are among the variants known to disrupt this process and are associated with Fanconi anemia, type C.
Carriers of a single FANCC mutation typically do not show symptoms of the condition. Testing can identify carriers as well as individuals who have two mutations and are therefore affected. Results should be interpreted by a healthcare provider in the context of family history and other clinical findings.
