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.

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with APC-related disease. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces valine with methionine at codon 915 of the APC protein (p.Val915Met). The valine residue is moderately conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between valine and methionine.

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.V915M variant (also known as c.2743G>A), located in coding exon 15 of the APC gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 2743. The valine at codon 915 is replaced by methionine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. In addition, in silico predictors for this gene do not accurately predict pathogenicity. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear.
