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

The c.3468_3470dupAGA variant (also known as p.E1157dup), located in coding exon 15 of the APC gene, results from an in-frame duplication of AGA at nucleotide positions 3468 to 3470. This results in the duplication of a glutamic acid residue at codon 1157. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be neutral by in silico analysis (Choi Y et al. PLoS ONE. 2012; 7(10):e46688). Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant causes a duplication of glutamic acid at codon 1157 of the APC protein. 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 1/250976 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. -

This variant, c.3468_3470dup, results in the insertion of 1 amino acid(s) of the APC protein (p.Glu1157dup), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (rs775186654, gnomAD 0.002%). 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: 420248). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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. -

This in-frame duplication of 3 nucleotides in APC is denoted c.3468_3470dupAGA at the cDNA level and p.Glu1157dup (E1157dup) at the protein level. The normal sequence, with the bases that are duplicated in braces, is AAGA[AGA]GAGA. This duplication of a single Glutamic Acid residue occurs at a position that is not conserved and is located in a Serine-rich region, a Beta-catenin binding domain, and a region responsible for down-regulation through a process mediated by direct ubiquitination (Azzopardi 2008, UniProt). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. Since in-frame duplications may or may not inhibit proper protein functioning, the clinical significance of this finding remains unclear at this time and we consider APC Glu1157dup to be a variant of uncertain significance. -

The APC c.3468_3470dup (p.Glu1157dup) variant has not been reported in individuals with APC-related conditions in the published literature. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000004 (1/250976 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
