About Fanconi Anemia Carrier Test | FA Carrier in Aurora
This test analyzes two mutations in the FANCC gene that are linked to Fanconi anemia, type C.
Fanconi anemia is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern, meaning a person must inherit a mutation from each parent to be affected. Carriers have one altered copy of the gene and typically do not show symptoms, but they can pass the mutation to their children.
The test detects two specific mutations: IVS4+4A>T and 322delG. These changes are among the most common mutations associated with Fanconi anemia, type C in certain populations. Identifying them can clarify carrier status and help assess the chance of having an affected child.
Results are reported for each mutation tested. A negative result does not rule out all possible mutations in the FANCC gene or other genes related to Fanconi anemia, since testing is limited to the two variants specified.
