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.

Submissions by phenotype

Familial adenomatous polyposis 1 Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 28, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Tyr935Ilefs*19) in the APC gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 1909 amino acid(s) of the APC protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) (PMID: 9375853, 14961559, 17411426, 21779980). This variant is also known as 2800 Del4 and c.2800_2803delACTT. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 429056). This variant is expected to disrupt the EB1 and HDLG binding sites, which mediate interactions with the cytoskeleton (PMID: 15311282, 17293347). While functional studies have not been performed to directly test the effect on APC protein function, this suggests that disruption of the C-terminal portion of the protein is functionally important. A different truncation (p.Tyr2645Lysfs*14) that lies downstream of this variant has been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 9824584, 1316610, 27081525, 8381579, 22135120, Invitae). This suggests that deletion of this region of the APC protein is causative of disease. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMyriad Genetics, Inc.May 05, 2023This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant creates a frameshift predicted to result in premature protein truncation. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthFeb 17, 2020This variant deletes 4 nucleotides in exon 16 of the APC gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in at least 18 individuals affected with FAP across multiple ethnicities (PMID: 10768871, 14961559, 15108288, 15951963, 17411426, 18433509, 19029688, 20223039, 21779980, 8187091, 9375853, 9950360). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of APC function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 19, 2021The c.2802_2805delTTAC pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 15 of the APC gene, results from a deletion of 4 nucleotides at nucleotide positions 2802 to 2805, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.Y935Ifs*19). This alteration occurs at the 3' terminus of theAPC gene, is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, and impacts the last 1909 amino acids of the protein. However, premature stop codons are typically deleterious in nature and the impacted region is critical for protein function (Ambry internal data). Additionally, this mutation has been reported in multiple unrelated FAP families (Khan N et al. Sci Rep. 2017 May;7:2214; Plawski A, Slomski R. J Appl Genet. 2008;49(4):407-14; Friedl W et al. Hered Cancer Clin Pract. 2005 Sep;3:95-114; Wallis YL et al. J. Med. Genet. 1999 Jan;36:14-20). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
Carcinoma of colon Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The APC p.Tyr935IlefsX19 variant was identified in 11 of 4890 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.002) from individuals or families with FAP (Wallis 1999, Friedl 2005, Kanter-Smoler 2008, Plawski 2008, Bisgaard 2004). The variant was also identified in the COSMIC database 3X, and the InSiGHT Colon Cancer Gene Variant Database 19X as pathogenic. The variant was not identified in the Clinvitae database, “Mismatch Repair Genes Variant Database”, “MMR Gene Unclassified Variants Database”, “Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database”, the ClinVar database, GeneInsight COGR database, or UMD. The p.Tyr935IlefsX19 deletion variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein's amino acid sequence beginning at codon 935 and leads to a premature stop codon at position 953. This alteration is then predicted to result in a truncated or absent protein and loss of function. In addition, several studies have reported a mutation in FAP patients 2 bp upstream at c.2800_2803delACTT which leads to a premature stop codon at the same amino acid position, 953 (Miyaki 1994, Enomoto 2000, Armstrong 1997, Stekrova 2007, DeRosa 2003). Loss of function variants of the APC gene are an established mechanism of disease in familial adenomatous polyposis and is the type of variant expected to cause the disorder. In summary, based on the above information, this variant meets our laboratory’s criteria to be classified as pathogenic. -
