Fanconi Anemia

Assembled from catalogue records November 2, 2026

Fanconi Anemia, as genome-wide studies have reported it: 492 positions from 1 study. Assembled by code from the GWAS Catalog's records and kept current as positions arrive; every figure is the studies' own.

What this condition connects to

Prevalence
Not taken from these records, which report study sizes rather than how common the condition is.
Inheritance
Polygenic in the records: 492 positions at genome-wide significance across 1 study, each common variant of small effect. Nothing here says how much of the condition is inherited.

Genome-wide studies have so far placed 492 positions on Fanconi Anemia, from 1 study; the GWAS Catalog files the condition as "Fanconi anemia". MyGeneLog's code assembles this page from those records and rebuilds it when a new position is reported — nothing here was written by hand, and nothing here goes beyond what the records say.

The studies, one by one

A study. From it, 492 positions on this page: rs1004943548 (FANCD2), rs1007481549 (FANCD2), rs1011870043 (FANCM), rs1013628944 (FANCI), rs1015551647 (FANCA), rs1017506584 (FANCI), rs1028935047 (SLX4), rs1030580842 (FANCM), and 484 more.

The positions

The catalogue maps the 492 positions to 11 genes: FANCD2, FANCM, FANCI, FANCA, SLX4, FANCL, FANCF, FANCG, FANCC, BRIP1, FANCB. That mapping says where a position sits, in a gene or beside one — not what it does. For what each study measured, follow its citation above.

What these records can and cannot tell you

It is a record of what genome-wide studies have reported about Fanconi Anemia, kept current by code. It is not a description of the condition, an estimate of how common it is, or guidance of any kind — a page that took those from association records would be inventing them. Each variant page linked here carries that study's own record for the position in fixed sentences, and ClinVar's record where one exists.

Clinical detail

Genotype and diagnosis

Fanconi Anemia is diagnosed by a clinician — not from a genotype. None of the 492 variants on this page is used by any guideline to predict, screen for or diagnose it.

Everything here comes from population-level association records, put together by code. Those records compare groups of people; they do not examine anyone, and they give no guidance on care. For symptoms, testing or treatment, ask a clinician.

Questions about Fanconi Anemia

What is Fanconi Anemia?

Fanconi Anemia is the condition the GWAS Catalog files under "Fanconi anemia". This page does not define it in its own words; it lists what genome-wide studies have reported: 492 positions from 1 study, with each study's sample and citation.

Is Fanconi Anemia genetic?

Genes play a part: 492 positions have been linked to it. But each is a common variant of small effect, and a link found across a population does not cause the condition in any one person.

Which genes are linked to Fanconi Anemia on this page?

The catalogue maps the positions to 11 genes: FANCD2, FANCM, FANCI, FANCA, SLX4, FANCL, FANCF, FANCG, FANCC, BRIP1, FANCB. These are where the positions sit, not proof of how they act.

Can these variants predict whether I will get Fanconi Anemia?

No. They are population-level findings of small effect. Fanconi Anemia is diagnosed by a clinician, and no guideline uses a genotype to predict it.
