Genes affected
APC (HGNC:583): (APC regulator of WNT signaling pathway) This gene encodes a tumor suppressor protein that acts as an antagonist of the Wnt signaling pathway. It is also involved in other processes including cell migration and adhesion, transcriptional activation, and apoptosis. Defects in this gene cause familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), an autosomal dominant pre-malignant disease that usually progresses to malignancy. Mutations in the APC gene have been found to occur in most colorectal cancers, where disease-associated mutations tend to be clustered in a small region designated the mutation cluster region (MCR) and result in a truncated protein product.

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 217991). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with colonic adenomas and colorectal cancer (PMID: 9585611). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln163*) in the APC gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in APC are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17963004, 20685668). -

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 5 of the APC gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals and families affected with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) and attenuated familial adenomatous polyposis (AFAP)(PMID: 9585611, 11247895, 16461775, 19701947, 33134403). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of APC function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.Q163* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.487C>T), located in exon 4 of the APC gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 487. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within exon 4. This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with features consistent with APC-associated polyposis conditions (Abrams HR et al. ACG Case Rep J. 2020 Oct;7(10):e00469; Ambry internal data). This mutation was also identified in six members of a family with hereditary predisposition to colonic adenomas and colorectal cancer. Two family members were diagnosed with colorectal cancer, one at the age of 35 and one at age 60, and four family members were found to have numerous adenomatous colon polyps (Soravia et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 1998;62:1290-1301). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: APC c.487C>T (p.Gln163X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant was absent in 245984 control chromosomes. c.487C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (example, Scott_2001, Soravia_1998, Sieber_2006). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
