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.

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant, c.4850_4855del, results in the deletion of 2 amino acid(s) of the APC protein (p.Leu1617_Leu1618del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with APC-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 371929). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.4850_4855delTTCTAC variant (also known as p.L1617_L1618del) is located in coding exon 15 of the APC gene. This variant results from an in-frame TTCTAC deletion at nucleotide positions 4850 to 4855. This results in the in-frame deletion of two leucine residues between codons 1617 and 1618. This amino acid region is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis (Choi Y et al. PLoS ONE. 2012; 7(10):e46688). Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
