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 p.Pro2170= variant was identified in 1 of 42 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.02) from individuals or families with FAP (Leon 2013). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs138571760) as "With other allele", ClinVar (classified as benign by GeneDx and Integrated Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America; as likely benign by Invitae, Ambry Genetics and four other submitters). The variant was not identified in LOVD 3.0. The variant was identified in our laboratory with a co-occurring pathogenic APC variant (c.3329C>G (p.Ser1110*)), increasing the likelihood that the p.Pro2170= variant does not have clinical significance. The variant was identified in control databases in 25 of 275938 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00009 increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: African in 10 of 23862 chromosomes (freq: 0.0004), Other in 3 of 6442 chromosomes (freq: 0.0005), Latino in 7 of 34288 chromosomes (freq: 0.0002), European in 5 of 126090 chromosomes (freq: 0.00004), while the variant was not observed in the Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, Finnish, and South Asian populations. The p.Pro2170= variant is not expected to have clinical significance because it does not result in a change of amino acid and is not located in a known consensus splice site. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and 2 of 4 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing; this is not very predictive of pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: The APC c.6510A>C (p.Pro2170Pro) variant causes a synonymous change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide, which 3/5 splice prediction tools predict an impact on normal splicing. ESE finder predicts that this variant may alter ESE binding. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. This variant was found in 10/119892 control chromosomes, predominantly observed in the African subpopulation at a frequency of 0.000725 (7/9652). This frequency is about 10 times the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic APC variant (0.0000714), suggesting this is likely a benign polymorphism found primarily in population(s) of African origin. A publication cites the variant in affected individual, however, with limited information (ie, lack of co-occurrence and cosegregation data) and listing it as a "constitutional polymorphism" without providing evidence to evaluate. In addition, a clinical diagnostic laboratory cites the variant with a classification of "likely benign." Therefore, the variant of interest has been classified as Benign. -

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -

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. -
