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.

This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 2593 of the APC protein (p.Asn2593Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs367676584, gnomAD 0.005%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with colorectal adenomas (PMID: 18199528). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 161205). 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%. RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this missense change on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (internal data). 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. -

This variant is denoted APC c.7778A>G at the cDNA level, p.Asn2593Ser (N2593S) at the protein level, and results in the change of an Asparagine to a Serine (AAC>AGC). This variant was observed in one individual with fewer than 10 colorectal adenomas (Azzopardi 2008). APC Asn2593Ser was not observed at a significant allele frequency in large population cohorts (Lek 2016). This variant is located in the EB1 binding domain (Azzopardi 2008). In-silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports that this variant does not alter protein structure/function. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether APC Asn2593Ser is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

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. -

Classic or attenuated familial adenomatous polyposis Uncertain:1

All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces asparagine with serine at codon 2593 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). Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with familial adenomatous polyposis or multiple colorectal polyps (PMID 18199528, 21859464), or renal papillary cell carcinoma (PMID: 29684080). This variant has been identified in 6/282106 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. -
