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.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 5-112792506-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr5-112792506-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 433612.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr5-112792506-C-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Familial adenomatous polyposis 1 Pathogenic:2

Apr 27, 2023

Myriad Genetics, Inc.

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant creates a termination codon and is predicted to result in premature protein truncation. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln236*) 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). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of familial adenomatous polyposis (PMID: 12007223). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 433612). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Carcinoma of colon Pathogenic:1

Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: no assertion criteria provided

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.Gln236X variant has been reported in the literature in 1/142 proband chromosomes of an individual from a FAP family; it was not found in any of the 100 control chromosomes evaluated (Gavert 2002). It was also reported in the InSiGHT Colon Cancer (x1) database. The variant leads to a premature stop codon at position 236 which is predicted to cause premature truncation or absent protein product and loss of function. Loss of function variants of the APC gene are an established disease mechanism in FAP. In summary, based on the above information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.Q236* variant (also known as c.706C>T), located in coding exon 6 of the APC gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 706. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 6. This mutation has been observed in an Israeli polyposis cohort and in 1/53 South Asian families with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (Gavert N et al. Hum. Mutat., 2002 Jun;19:664; Khan N et al. Sci Rep, 2017 05;7:2214). 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. -
