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

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg1858*) in the APC gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 986 amino acid(s) of the APC protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). 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: 486765). 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. 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. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The APC c.5572C>T; p.Arg1858Ter variant (rs1270783041), to our knowledge, is not reported in the medical literature but is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 486765). This variant is also absent from the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant results in a premature termination codon in the last exon of the APC gene. While this may not lead to nonsense-mediated decay, it is expected to create a truncated protein lacking the last 985 amino acids. Additionally, several downstream truncating variants have been described in individuals with familial adenomatous polyposis and are considered pathogenic (see InSiGHt, Eccles 2001, Kerr 2013). Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Link to InSiGHt: https://www.insight-group.org/syndromes/adenomatous-polyposis/. Eccles D et al.

All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 16 of the APC gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is predicted to escape nonsense-mediated decay and be expressed as a truncated protein lacking the last 986 amino acids. Although functional studies have not been reported, this variant is expected to disrupt part of beta-catenin binding, SAMP-repeats, basic domain, EB1 binding, and HDLG binding (PMID: 23185543, 21858148). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals affected with APC-related disorders in the literature. 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. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

The APC c.5572C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg1858*). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature or a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. It is interpreted as pathogenic in ClinVar (https://preview.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/486765/). This variant occurs in the last exon of APC. However, other protein truncating variants occurring downstream of this variant are reported to be causative for APC related disease (Miyoshi et al. 1992. PubMed ID: 1316610; Kerr et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23159591). Truncating variants in APC are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.R1858* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.5572C>T), located in coding exon 15 of the APC gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 5572. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 15. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
