Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PM2

The NM_000038.6(APC):​c.2840G>T​(p.Cys947Phe) variant causes a missense change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. C947Y) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthSep 17, 2021This missense variant replaces cysteine with phenylalanine at codon 947 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 not been identified 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. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJun 07, 2021The p.C947F variant (also known as c.2840G>T), located in coding exon 15 of the APC gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 2840. The cysteine at codon 947 is replaced by phenylalanine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is well 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. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpDec 22, 2017Variant summary: The APC c.2840G>T (p.Cys947Phe) variant involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide and 4/5 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. However, these predictions have yet to be functionally assessed. This variant is absent in 245618 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The variant of interest has not, to our knowledge, been reported in affected individuals via publications and/or reputable databases/clinical diagnostic laboratories. Because of the absence of clinical information and the lack of functional studies, the variant is classified as a "Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS)," until additional information becomes available. -
Familial adenomatous polyposis 1 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJun 19, 2023This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). 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. 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. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 469777). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with APC-related conditions. This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 947 of the APC protein (p.Cys947Phe). -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxNov 03, 2022Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
