Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PM1
The NM_000038.6(APC):c.1279C>A(p.His427Asn) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000028 in 1,461,724 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. H427Y) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:4

The p.H427N variant (also known as c.1279C>A), located in coding exon 9 of the APC gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 1279. The histidine at codon 427 is replaced by asparagine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant was reported as a variant of unknown significance in 1/1197 individuals from Greece, Romania, and Turkey undergoing evaluation for inherited cancer predisposition (Tsaousis GN et al. BMC Cancer, 2019 Jun;19:535). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, in silico predictors for this gene do not accurately predict pathogenicity. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
This missense variant replaces histidine with asparagine at codon 427 of the APC protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with APC-related disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 3/250682 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. -

not specified Uncertain:3
Variant summary: APC c.1279C>A (p.His427Asn) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) repeat (IPR041257) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 250682 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.1279C>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with prostate cancer and with a family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (examples: Mateo_2020, Tsaousis_2019). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with familial adenomatous polyposis. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 31874108, 31159747). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 127276). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Familial adenomatous polyposis 1 Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces histidine, which is basic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 427 of the APC protein (p.His427Asn). This variant is present in population databases (rs587779781, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with a personal or family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 31159747). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 127276). 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%. 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. -
Classic or attenuated familial adenomatous polyposis Uncertain:1

not provided Uncertain:1
This variant is denoted APC c.1279C>A at the cDNA level, p.His427Asn (H427N) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Histidine to an Asparagine (CAT>AAT). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as a pathogenic or benign germline variant. APC His427Asn was not observed at a significant allele frequency 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 a deleterious effect. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether APC His427Asn is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -
