The NM_018836.4(AJAP1):c.163C>T (p.Arg55Trp) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The gene AJAP1 is a tumor suppressor gene (CancerMine: 11 TSG citations). The variant allele was found at a cumulative frequency of 0.0000502 (AC=80) in the gnomAD database across 1,594,156 control chromosomes (no homozygotes observed). The grpmax filtering allele frequency (95% CI) is 0.0000502. In-silico predictor (REVEL) classifies this variant as likely benign. Splicing prediction tools (SpliceAI) predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain Significance (★). The variant has been observed in cBioPortal in 1 sample across 1 study and 1 cancer type; somatic enrichment level: NONE (Observed in at most one deduplicated cBioPortal case.).

Genes affected

AJAP1 (HGNC:30801): (adherens junctions associated protein 1) Enables beta-catenin binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of cell-matrix adhesion; negative regulation of wound healing; and regulation of polarized epithelial cell differentiation. Located in several cellular components, including adherens junction; basolateral plasma membrane; and cell-cell contact zone. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Classification according to ACGS-UK Somatic Oncogenicity v2025

Classification was made for transcript:

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 0 points.

Apply	Criterion Code & Title / Strength	Strength	Rationale / Clinical Context
	O3Absent or very rare in population		Very rare in gnomAD (popmax AF <0.01%) — O3 supporting; GnomAD effective popmax AF = 0.000050 — very rare (O3 supporting [+1])
	B3Computational evidence does not support deleterious effect		Computational evidence does not support a deleterious effect; Missense variant — primary computational scorer does not support an oncogenic/deleterious effect; supports B3
