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 sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1655 of the APC protein (p.Thr1655Ala). This variant is present in population databases (rs759441332, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with colorectal cancer (PMID: 30267214). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 236610). 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. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: The APC c.4963A>G (p.Thr1655Ala) variant involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide and 3/4 in silico tools (SNPs&GO not captured due to low reliability index) predict a damaging outcome, although these predictions have yet to be functionally assessed. This variant was found in 1/123124 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000081, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic APC variant (0.0000714). In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories classified this variant as uncertain significance. The variant of interest has not, to our knowledge, been reported in affected individuals via publications. 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. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The APC c.4963A>G (p.Thr1655Ala) variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals with colorectal cancer (PMID: 30267214 (2018)), breast cancer (PMID: 25186627 (2015)), and glioma (PMID: 26580448 (2015)). It has also been observed in a reportedly healthy individual (PMID: 18199528 (2008)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000044 (5/113144 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

This missense variant replaces threonine with alanine at codon 1655 of the APC protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with glioma, breast, and colorectal cancer in the literature (PMID: 25186627, 26580448,30267214), and has also been reported in a healthy individual (PMID: 18199528). This variant has been identified in 6/250776 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. -
