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.

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

This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 150 of the APC protein (p.Lys150Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs371085910, gnomAD 0.005%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of familial adenomatous polyposis (PMID: 18199528). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 141928). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt APC protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this missense change on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (internal data). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as 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. -

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

This missense variant replaces lysine with arginine at codon 150 of the APC protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, protein functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast cancer, colorectal adenomas, and rhabdosarcoma in the literature (PMID: 18199528, 21859464, 26580448, 28503720). This variant has been identified in 6/279048 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

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

Variant summary: APC c.449A>G (p.Lys150Arg) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.2e-05 in 273686 control chromosomes. This frequency is not higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in APC causing Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (2.2e-05 vs 7.1e-05), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.449A>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with breast cancer and colon colorectal adenomas (Azzopardi_2008, Rummel_2017). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about an association of the variant with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis indicates that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; In silico analysis is inconclusive as to whether the variant alters gene splicing. In the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown.; Observed in individuals with a personal history of colorectal adenomas, breast cancer, or other cancers (PMID: 18199528, 21859464, 26580448, 27498913, 28503720); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25637381, 21859464, 18199528, 26580448, 27498913, 28152038, 28503720, 16454848, 12070164, 27535533, 11257105, 34301788) -

The APC c.449A>G (p.Lys150Arg) variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals affected with colorectal adenomas (PMIDs: 18199528 (2008), 21859464 (2011)), early-onset breast cancer (PMID: 28503720 (2017)), and pediatric sarcomas (PMIDs: 26580448 (2015), 34301788 (2021)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000031 (4/127816 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

The APC c.449A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Lys150Arg. This variant has been reported in individuals with colorectal adenoma (Azzopardi et al. 2008. PubMed ID: 18199528; Table S1, Minde. 2011. PubMed ID: 21859464 ) and in a patient with invasive early-onset breast cancer (Rummel et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28503720). This variant is reported in 0.0031% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD and is listed in ClinVar as likely benign and uncertain significance (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/141928/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
