Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 2 ACMG points: 4P and 2B. PM1PM2BP4_Moderate
The NM_000038.6(APC):c.841A>C(p.Thr281Pro) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 15/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. 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. T281A) has been classified as Likely benign.

Submissions by phenotype
not provided Uncertain:2
Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge
Familial adenomatous polyposis 1 Uncertain:1
This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with APC-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces threonine with proline at codon 281 of the APC protein (p.Thr281Pro). The threonine residue is weakly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between threonine and proline. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. 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.
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
The p.T281P variant (also known as c.841A>C), located in coding exon 8 of the APC gene, results from an A to C substitution at nucleotide position 841. The threonine at codon 281 is replaced by proline, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant has been observed in at least one individual with a personal and/or family history that is consistent with APC-related familial adenomatous polyposis (Ambry internal data). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, in silico predictors for this gene do not accurately predict pathogenicity. Missense alterations in APC are not a common cause of disease (Spier I et al. Genet Med. 2024 Feb;26(2):100992). Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear.
