Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -9 ACMG points: 0P and 9B. BS1BS2BP1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.715G>C variant in APC is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of alanine by proline at amino acid 239 (p.Ala239Pro). This variant has been observed in ≥ 35 heterozygous individuals with no features or family history of FAP, worth ≥ 10 healthy individual points (BS2; Ambry, Invitae internal data). The highest allele frequency of this variant in gnomAD v2.1.1 (non-cancer) is 0.0002269 in East Asian population, which is higher than the ClinGen InSiGHT Hereditary Colorectal Cancer/Polyposis Variant Curation Expert Panel (HCCP VCEP) threshold (≥ 0.00001) for BS1 (BS1). Finally, APC is defined by the HCCP VCEP as a gene for which primarily truncating variants are known to cause disease (BP1). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Benign for FAP based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the HCCP VCEP: BS1, BS2, BP1. (VCEP specifications version 1; date of approval 12/12/2022). LINK:https://erepo.genome.network/evrepo/ui/classification/CA047113/MONDO:0021056/089

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.

ClinGen InSiGHT Hereditary Colorectal Cancer/Polyposis Variant Curation Expert Panel
Significance:Benign
Review Status:reviewed by expert panel
Collection Method:curation

The c.715G>C variant in APC is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of alanine by proline at amino acid 239 (p.Ala239Pro). This variant has been observed in more than 35 heterozygous individuals with no features or family history of FAP, worth more than 10 healthy individual points (BS2; Ambry, Invitae internal data). The highest allele frequency of this variant in gnomAD v2.1.1 (non-cancer) is 0.0002269 in East Asian population, which is higher than the ClinGen InSiGHT Hereditary Colorectal Cancer/Polyposis Variant Curation Expert Panel (HCCP VCEP) threshold (0.00001) for BS1 (BS1). Finally, APC is defined by the HCCP VCEP as a gene for which primarily truncating variants are known to cause disease (BP1). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Benign for FAP based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the HCCP VCEP: BS1, BS2, BP1. (VCEP specifications version 1; date of approval 12/12/2022). -

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

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 239 of the APC protein (p.Ala239Pro). This variant is present in population databases (rs777760565, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with APC-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 220329). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt APC protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1Benign:1
Mar 07, 2024
Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces alanine with proline at codon 239 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 not been reported in individuals affected with APC-related disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 4/251184 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. -

Ambry Genetics
Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

Classic or attenuated familial adenomatous polyposis Uncertain:1

All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces alanine with proline at codon 239 of the APC protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has been identified in 4/251184 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. -
