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.

The APC c.5635G>T (p.Ala1879Ser) variant has been reported in the published literature in an individual with suspected Lynch syndrome (PMID: 25980754 (2015)), and individuals with breast cancer (PMID: 35534704 (2022), 34326862 (2021)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000039 (5/128744 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 conflicting predictions that this variant is deleterious or benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

The APC p.Ala1861Ser variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs587779799), ClinVar (classified as likely benign by Ambry Genetics and as a VUS by GeneDx, Invitae, Counsyl and Color for familial adenomatous polyposis 1 and hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome) and Cosmic (FATHMM prediction of pathogenic; score=0.99) but was not identified in LOVD 3.0. The p.Ala1861Ser (alias p.A1879S) variant was identified in 1/1260 individuals undergoing Lynch syndrome testing and classified as a VUS, and was identified in a cohort of 1120 patients with pediatric cancers (Yurgelun_2015_PMID: 25980754; Zhang_2015_PMID: 26580448). The variant was identified in control databases in 8 of 282274 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.000028 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: East Asian in 2 of 19936 chromosomes (freq: 0.0001), African in 1 of 24908 chromosomes (freq: 0.00004) and European (non-Finnish) in 5 of 128744 chromosomes (freq: 0.000039); it was not observed in the Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, European (Finnish), Other and South Asian populations. The variant occurs outside the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. The p.Ala1861 residue is conserved in in mammals but not in more distantly related organisms however computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein; this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. 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.5635G>T (p.Ala1879Ser) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence and three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. However, these predictions have yet to be functionally assessed. The variant, c.5635G>T, was observed with an allele frequency of 0.00002169 in 276676 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in APC causing Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (2.2e-05 vs 7.1e-05), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. The variant, c.5635G>T, was observed in 1 Lynch syndrome patient (Yurgelun_2015) and 1 Hyperdiploid ALL (Zhang_2015), with limited information (i.e., lack of co-segregation and/or co-occurrence data). Multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories via ClinVar submission (evaluations after 2014) have conflicting classifications from "likely benign" to "uncertain significance". Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

This missense variant replaces alanine with serine at codon 1879 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 an individual affected with Lynch syndrome associated cancer and/or polyps (PMID: 25980754) and in an individual affected with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (PMID: 26580448). This variant has also been identified in 8/282274 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. -
