Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -19 ACMG points: 0P and 19B. BP4_ModerateBP6_Very_StrongBP7BS1BS2

The NM_000038.6(APC):c.1959G>A(p.Arg653Arg) variant causes a splice region, synonymous change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00423 in 1,610,582 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 31 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely benign (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. R653R) has been classified as Pathogenic.

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.

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. -

Variant summary: The APC c.1959G>A (p.Arg653Arg) variant involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide one nucleotide downstream from the intron-exon boundary, resulting in a synonymous change. 4/5 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Consistent with these predictions, in vitro as well as ex vivo analysis shows that this variant does not cause abnormal splicing (Aretz_2004, Grandval_2014). This variant was found in 538/119468 control chromosomes (including 6 homozygotes), predominantly observed in the European (Finnish), subpopulation at a frequency of 0.0323708 (213/6580). This frequency is about 453 times greater than the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic APC variant (0.0000714), suggesting this is a benign polymorphism found primarily in the populations of European (Finnish) origin. This variant has also been reported in several FAP patients (Aretz_2004, Stekrova_2007, Grandval_2014, UMD); however, some patients also carried another deleterious variant in the same gene, strongly suggesting for the benign outcome. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories and one reputable database have classified this variant as benign. Taken together, this variant is classified as Benign. -

This alteration is classified as 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 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. -
