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.

Genetics and Molecular Pathology, SA Pathology
Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The APC c.4332A>T variant is classified as VUS. The APC c.4332A>T variant is a single nucleotide change in exon 16/16 of the APC gene, which is predicted to change the amino acid glutamine at position 1444 in the protein to histidine. This variant was reported in an individual that had a history of Lynch syndrome-associated cancer (PMID: 25980754) Disease causing variants in APC are predominantly truncating variants and this variant is a missense variant which is not located in the first 15-amino acid repeat of the β-catenin binding domain (codon 1021-1035) (BP1). The variant has been reported in dbSNP (rs748342378) and in the HGMD database: CM1825341. It has been reported as Uncertain significance by other diagnostic laboratories (ClinVar Variation ID: 411562). -

Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces glutamine, which is neutral and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 1444 of the APC protein (p.Gln1444His). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of APC-related conditions (PMID: 25980754). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 411562). 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. -

Ambry Genetics
Significance: Likely benign
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

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. -

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health
Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This missense variant replaces glutamine with histidine at codon 1444 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 performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with Lynch syndrome-associated cancer and/or polyps (PMID: 25980754). This variant has also been identified in 2/251194 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

This missense variant replaces glutamine with histidine at codon 1444 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 performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with Lynch syndrome-associated cancer and/or polyps (PMID: 25980754). This variant has also been identified in 2/251194 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. -
