Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -1 ACMG points: 1P and 2B. BS2_SupportingPM2_SupportingBP1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.8438C>A variant in APC is a missense variant predicted to cause the substitution of Threonine by Lysine at amino acid position 2813 (p.Thr2813Lys). This variant has been observed in ≥ 3 individuals with no features or family history of FAP, which is worth 3 healthy individual points (BS2_supporting; Invitae and Ambry internal data). APC is defined by the ClinGen InSiGHT Hereditary Colorectal Cancer/Polyposis Variant Curation Expert Panel (HCCP VCEP) as a gene for which primarily truncating variants are known to cause disease (BP1). This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1.1 (PM2_supporting). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Likely Benign for FAP. Although there are both pathogenic and benign types of evidence for this variant, the pathogenic evidence is not considered inconsistent with the final classification. ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the HCCP VCEP: BS2_supporting, and BP1. (VCEP specifications version 1; date of approval: 12/12/2022).

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.

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

In summary, this variant has uncertain impact on APC function. The available evidence is currently insufficient to determine its role in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a APC-related disease. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 411374). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces threonine with lysine at codon 2813 of the APC protein (p.Thr2813Lys). The threonine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between threonine and lysine. -

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:reviewed by expert panel
Collection Method:curation

The c.8438C>A variant in APC is a missense variant predicted to cause the substitution of Threonine by Lysine at amino acid position 2813 (p.Thr2813Lys). This variant has been observed in more than 3 individuals with no features or family history of FAP, which is worth 3 healthy individual points (BS2_supporting; Invitae and Ambry internal data). APC is defined by the ClinGen InSiGHT Hereditary Colorectal Cancer/Polyposis Variant Curation Expert Panel (HCCP VCEP) as a gene for which primarily truncating variants are known to cause disease (BP1). This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1.1 (PM2_supporting). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Likely Benign for FAP. Although there are both pathogenic and benign types of evidence for this variant, the pathogenic evidence is not considered inconsistent with the final classification. ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the HCCP VCEP: BS2_supporting, and BP1. (VCEP specifications version 1; date of approval: 12/12/2022). -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1

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

The p.T2813K variant (also known as c.8438C>A), located in coding exon 15 of the APC gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 8438. The threonine at codon 2813 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, in silico predictors for this gene do not accurately predict pathogenicity. Missense alterations in APC are not a common cause of disease (Spier I et al. Genet Med. 2024 Feb;26(2):100992). Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
