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.

Variant summary: The APC c.120G>A variant affects a conserved nucleotide, resulting in synonymous amino acid change. This variant is found in 81/121234 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0006681, which is about 11 times greater than the estimated maximal expected frequency of a pathogenic allele (0.0000602) in this gene, suggesting this variant is benign. In addition, multiple clinical laboratories have classified this variant as benign/likely benign. The variant of interest has not, to our knowledge, been reported in affected individuals via publications and/or reputable databases/clinical laboratories. Taken together, this variant has been classified as Benign. -

Review Status: no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method: clinical testing

The APC p.Glu40= variant was identified in 4 of 3182 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.0013) from individuals or families with FAP (Kerr 2013). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs142720069) as "With other allele ", and in ClinVar database (classified as benign by Invitae, GeneDx, Color Genimics and two clinical laboratories; as likely benign by Ambry Genetics and three clinical laboratories). The variant was not identified in GeneInsight-COGR, Cosmic, LOVD 3.0, UMD-LSDB, or Zhejiang University, databases. The variant was identified in control databases in 194 of 276970 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0007 increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: African in 128 of 24032 chromosomes (freq: 0.005), Other in 3 of 6454 chromosomes (freq: 0.0005), Latino in 19 of 34412 chromosomes (freq: 0.0006), European in 2 of 126492 chromosomes (freq: 0.00002), Ashkenazi Jewish in 42 of 10150 chromosomes (freq: 0.004), while the variant was not observed in the East Asian, Finnish, and South Asian populations. The p.Glu40= variant is not expected to have clinical significance because it does not result in a change of amino acid and is not located in a known consensus splice site. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and 1 of 5 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing; this is not very predictive of pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -

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

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -
