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.

The APC c.2438A>G; p.Asn813Ser variant (rs201522866) is reported in the literature in individuals with colorectal or pancreatic cancer (Chaffee 2018, Erdem 2020, Yurgelun 2017), and is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 41499). This variant is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.005% (15/282270 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The asparagine at codon 813 is moderately conserved, but computational analyses predict that this variant is tolerated (REVEL: 0.13). The vast majority of pathogenic APC variants are truncating nonsense or frameshift variants (see InSiGHt, Kerr 2013). However, based on available information, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain at this time.

This variant is denoted APC c.2438A>G at the cDNA level, p.Asn813Ser (N813S) at the protein level, and results in the change of an Asparagine to a Serine (AAT>AGT). This variant has been observed in an individual with colorectal cancer and in another with a personal and family history of pancreatic cancer (Yurgelun 2017, Chaffee 2018). Additionally, APC Asn813Ser was studied in a melanoma cell line, which displayed no increase of Axin2 expression and no increase of Wnt signaling (Worm 2004). APC Asn813Ser was observed at an allele frequency of 0.02% (5/30,782) in individuals of South Asian ancestry in large population cohorts (Lek 2016). This variant is not located in a known functional domain. In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports that this variant does not alter protein structure/function. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether APC Asn813Ser is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -

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. -

Variant summary: APC c.2438A>G (p.Asn813Ser) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.6e-05 in 252020 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in APC causing Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (5.6e-05 vs 7.1e-05), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.2438A>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with colorectal cancer or pancreatic cancer (Yurgelun_2017, Erdem_2020, Chaffee_2018). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis. A functional study indicates the variant does not affect downstream targets in the WNT pathway and therefore suggest this variant does not affect APC protein function (Worm_2004). However, the functional significance of these findings are not clear. Six other ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as likely benign (n=4) or uncertain significance (n=2). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign. -
