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.

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. A different truncation (p.Tyr2645Lysfs*14) that lies downstream of this variant has been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 9824584, 1316610, 27081525, 8381579, 22135120, Invitae). This suggests that deletion of this region of the APC protein is causative of disease. This variant is expected to disrupt the EB1 and HDLG binding sites, which mediate interactions with the cytoskeleton (PMID: 15311282, 17293347). While functional studies have not been performed to directly test the effect on APC protein function, this suggests that disruption of the C-terminal portion of the protein is functionally important. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 232078). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with familial adenomatous polyposis (PMID: 11247896). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln1071*) in the APC gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 1773 amino acid(s) of the APC protein. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2

Apr 15, 2020

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant changes 1 nucleotide, creating a premature translation stop signal in the last coding exon of the APC gene. While this mutant transcript is predicted to escape nonsense-mediated decay, it is expected to delete 1773 amino acids at the C-terminal end of the APC protein and disrupt the EB1 and HDLG binding domains. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with familial adenomatous polyposis (PMID: 23159591). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of APC function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.Q1071* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.3211C>T), located in coding exon 15 of the APC gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 3211. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 15. This alteration occurs at the 3' terminus of theAPC gene, is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, and impacts the last 1773 amino acids of the protein. However, premature stop codons are typically deleterious in nature and the impacted region is critical for protein function and a significant portion of the protein is affected (Ambry internal data). This mutation has been reported in multiple individuals diagnosed with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) or attenuated FAP (AFAP) (Friedl W et al. Gut, 2001 Apr;48:515-21; Friedl W et al. Hered Cancer Clin Pract, 2005 Sep;3:95-114; Kerr SE et al. J Mol Diagn, 2013 Jan;15:31-43). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
