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:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 2299 of the APC protein (p.Pro2299Leu). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of familial adenomatous polyposis (PMID: 34897210). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 230835). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae 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

This variant is denoted APC c.6896C>T at the cDNA level, p.Pro2299Leu (P2299L) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Proline to a Leucine (CCT>CTT). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. APC Pro2299Leu was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Since Proline and Leucine differ in some properties, this is considered a semi-conservative amino acid substitution. APC Pro2299Leu occurs at a position that is not conserved and is located within a Serine-rich region and within the Basic domain (Azzopardi 2008, UniProt). In silico analyses are inconsistent regarding the effect this variant may have on protein structure and function. Based on currently available information, it is unclear whether APC Pro2299Leu is pathogenic or benign. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance.

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.P2299L variant (also known as c.6896C>T), located in coding exon 15 of the APC gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 6896. The proline at codon 2299 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, in silico predictors for this gene do not accurately predict pathogenicity. 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 missense variant replaces proline with leucine at codon 2299 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 at risk of being affected with familial adenomatous polyposis or colorectal cancer (PMID: 31269945, 34897210). This variant has been identified in 5/1613990 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.

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: APC c.6896C>T (p.Pro2299Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Adenomatous polyposis coli protein basic domain (IPR009234) 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 8e-06 in 251036 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.6896C>T has been reported in the literature in individual(s) affected with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (e.g. Kim_2019, Park_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. Five ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.
