Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points: 4P and 2B. PM1PM2BP4_Moderate
The NM_000038.6(APC):c.835G>C(p.Gly279Arg) variant causes a missense, splice region change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 2/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. G279C) has been classified as Uncertain significance.
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.

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points.
PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 2 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 3 benign, 17 uncertain in NM_000038.6
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.22355989).
