Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1 PM2 PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000038.6(APC):c.5585dup(p.Leu1862PhefsTer7) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. S1861S) has been classified as Likely benign.

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

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant is located in the 3'-most exon, not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 157 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 5-112841176-C-CT is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr5-112841176-C-CT is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 505558.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

The p.Leu1862PhefsX7 variant in APC has not been previously reported in individuals with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) and was absent from large population studies. This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 1862 and leads to a premature termination codon 7 amino acids downstream. This termination codon occurs within the last exon and is, therefore, likely to escape nonsense mediated decay (NMD) and result in a truncated protein. Truncating variants in the last exon of APC, including multiple variants downstream of this variant, have been reported in individuals with FAP. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, the p.Arg2237X variant is classified as likely pathogenic for FAP in an autosomal dominant manner.
