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.

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.016408814 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 8.3, offset of -36, new splice context is: accagtttgttttattttAGatg. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 5-112827106-A-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr5-112827106-A-C is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 419874.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Myriad Genetics, Inc.
Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant is considered likely pathogenic. This variant occurs within a consensus splice junction and is predicted to result in abnormal mRNA splicing of either an out-of-frame exon or an in-frame exon necessary for protein stability and/or normal function. Functional studies indicate this variant impacts protein function [PMID: 15459959]. -

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

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site is associated with altered splicing resulting in multiple RNA products (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 419874). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with familial adenomatous polyposis (PMID: 9950360, 19036155; Invitae). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 11 of the APC gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in APC are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17963004, 20685668). -

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

This pathogenic variant is denoted APC c.1409-2A>C or IVS11-2A>C and consists of an A>C nucleotide substitution at the -2 position of intron 11 of the APC gene. The variant destroys a canonical splice acceptor site and is predicted to cause abnormal gene splicing, leading to either an abnormal message that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay or to an abnormal protein product. This variant has been reported in association with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) (Aretz 2004) and we consider it to be pathogenic. -

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

This variant is expected to severely impact normal RNA splicing, and consequently, protein structure and/or function. Found in at least one patient with expected phenotype for this gene. This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). -

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

The c.1409-2A>C intronic pathogenic mutation results from an A to C substitution two nucleotides upstream from coding exon 11 in the APC gene. This mutation was identified in 1/1164 unrelated German index patients with a clinical diagnosis of familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) or attenuated FAP (Aretz S et al. Hum. Mutat., 2004 Nov;24:370-80; Friedl W et al. Hered Cancer Clin Pract, 2005 Sep;3:95-114). A different mutation at the same nucleotide position, c.1409-2A>G, was detected in an AFAP patient and demonstrated aberrant splicing (Aretz S et al. Hum. Mutat., 2004 Nov;24:370-80). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as a disease-causing mutation. -
