Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points: 0P and 2B. BP4BP6

The NM_000038.6(APC):c.3479C>A(p.Thr1160Lys) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00027 in 1,613,950 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. T1160A) has been classified as Likely benign.

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

This missense variant replaces threonine with lysine at codon 1160 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). Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in one individual each affected with familial adenomatous polyposis (PMID: 18199528), colorectal cancer (PMID: 29212164), serrated polyposis syndrome (PMID: 35128723), breast cancer (PMID: 29684080) and in an individual(s) with an unspecified cancer (PMID: 28873162). This variant has also been observed in multiple individuals in the general population who were selected for phenotypes not directly related to cancer (PMID: 22703879, 25637381). This variant has been identified in 32/282180 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 alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

Variant summary: APC c.3479C>A (p.Thr1160Lys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the one of the 15 residue repeat domains (IPR009240) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00027 in 1613950 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00048 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within Non-Finnish European control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 7 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in APC causing Familial Adenomatous Polyposis phenotype (7.1e-05). c.3479C>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with non-FAP non-MAP colorectal adenomas (example, Azzopardi 2008), in a family with colorectal cancer without polyps (example, Raskin 2017) and as a VUS in settings of multigene panel testing performed in an individual with Serrated Polyposis Syndrome (SPS) (example, Murphy_2022). These report(s) 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: 22703879, 18199528, 26580448, 29212164, 35128723). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 41503). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant identified in a genome or exome case(s) and assessed due to predicted null impact of the variant or pathogenic assertions in the literature or databases. Disclaimer: This variant has not undergone full assessment. The following are preliminary notes: This variant is classified as DM in HGMD - it has been seen in one patient with colorectal adenoma and one unaffected patient. It has been classified with 1 star as VUS by 4 sumitters (GeneDx, Invitae, CSER_CC_NCGL, Biesecker lab) and Likely benign by 1 (Ambry). MaxMAF is 0.02% in ExAC (high for disease prevalence). -

Review Status:no assertion criteria provided

Collection Method:clinical testing

The APC c.3479C>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Thr1160Lys. This variant was reported in multiple individuals with colorectal adenoma, but was also present in one unaffected 48 year old family member (Azzopardi et al. 2008. PubMed ID: 18199528; Table S1, Minde et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 21859464; Raskin et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 29212164). This variant is reported in 0.023% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/5-112174770-C-A) and has conflicting interpretations regarding its pathogenicity in ClinVar, ranging from benign to uncertain (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/41503/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
