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.

Familial adenomatous polyposis 1 Uncertain:3
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Baylor Genetics | Mar 20, 2024 | - - |

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp | Jan 02, 2025 | This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 981 of the APC protein (p.Pro981Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs587779784, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with colorectal adenomas (PMID: 18199528). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 127282). 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:3
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Mar 02, 2023 | The p.P981R variant (also known as c.2942C>G), located in coding exon 15 of the APC gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 2942. The proline at codon 981 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This alteration has been reported in a cohort of 691 North American patients with colorectal adenomas (Azzopardi D et al. Cancer Res., 2008 Jan;68:358-63) and has also been reported in a cohort of of individuals diagnosed with colorectal cancer under the age of 65 (Rosenthal EA. Hum Genet. 2018 Oct;137(10):795-806). This amino acid position is highly 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. - |

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health | Nov 09, 2023 | This missense variant replaces proline with arginine at codon 981 of the APC protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in two individuals affected with colorectal adenoma as well as in individuals affected with colorectal cancer (PMID: 18199528, 21859464, 26480326, 30267214). This variant has been identified in 3/251288 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. - |

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp | Jun 05, 2023 | Variant summary: APC c.2942C>G (p.Pro981Arg) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 253226 control chromosomes (gnomAD and Azzopardi_2008). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.2942C>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with colorectal adenomas and colorectal cancer, without strong evidence for causality (e.g. Azzopardi_2008, Cohen_2016, Minde_2011, Rosenthal_2018). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 21859464, 18199528, 26480326, 30267214). Six submitters have provided clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and all classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. - |
Classic or attenuated familial adenomatous polyposis Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health | Dec 13, 2023 | This missense variant replaces proline with arginine at codon 981 of the APC protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in two individuals affected with colorectal adenoma as well as in individuals affected with colorectal cancer (PMID: 18199528, 21859464, 26480326, 30267214). This variant has been identified in 3/251288 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. - |
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | GeneDx | Oct 09, 2018 | This variant is denoted APC c.2942C>G at the cDNA level, p.Pro981Arg (P981R) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Proline to an Arginine (CCC>CGC). This variant was observed in two individuals with colorectal adenomas who were classified as non-FAP, non-MAP patients (Azzopardi 2008). APC Pro981Arg was not observed at a significant allele frequency in large population cohorts (Lek 2016). This variant is not located in a known functional domain. In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether APC Pro981Arg is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. - |
