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.

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points.

PVS1

Splicing variant, NOT destroyed by nmd, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.009728082 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 4.4, offset of 0 (no position change), new splice context is: gagGTagta. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.

PM2

Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano	Feb 01, 2023	The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000004 (1/251098 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant (also known as c.729+2del) has been reported in at least one individual with breast cancer (PMID: 29625052 (2018)). Analysis of this variant using software algorithms for the prediction of the effect of nucleotide changes on splicing yielded predictions that this variant may affect proper APC mRNA splicing . Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	Jun 10, 2021	Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek 2016); In silico analysis, which includes splice predictors and evolutionary conservation, suggests this variant may impact gene splicing. In the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown.; Observed in an individual with breast cancer (Huang 2018); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 29625052) -

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. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 411402). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 29625052). This variant is present in population databases (rs780245766, gnomAD 0.007%). This sequence change falls in intron 7 of the APC gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the APC protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. -

This variant causes a deletion of T in the +3 position in intron 7 of the APC gene. Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. 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 1/251098 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. -

The c.729+3delT intronic variant, located in intron 6 of the APC gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide within intron 6 of the APC gene. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
