Familial adenomatous polyposis 1 Uncertain:2

ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 495354). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt APC protein function. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 71 of the APC protein (p.Arg71Cys). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with APC-related conditions. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
This missense variant replaces arginine with cysteine at codon 71 of the APC protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with colorectal cancer (PMID: 26900293). This variant has been identified in 2/282192 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
The p.R71C variant (also known as c.211C>T), located in coding exon 2 of the APC gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 211. The arginine at codon 71 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, in silico predictors for this gene do not accurately predict pathogenicity. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Classic or attenuated familial adenomatous polyposis Uncertain:1
This missense variant replaces arginine with cysteine at codon 71 of the APC protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with colorectal cancer (PMID: 26900293). This variant has been identified in 2/282192 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Variant summary: The APC c.211C>T (p.Arg71Cys) variant involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide and 5/5 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. This variant was found in 1/245800 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000041, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic APC variant (0.0000714). A publication cites the variant to occur in a CrC cohort, however, additional information is not provided (ie, co-occurrence and cosegregation data). The variant of interest has not, to our knowledge, been reported in affected individuals via clinical diagnostic laboratories and/or reputable databases. Therefore, due to the limited available information, the variant of interest has been classified as a "Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS)," until additional information becomes available (ie, clinical and/or functional studies). -
