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.

Submissions by phenotype

Familial adenomatous polyposis 1 Pathogenic:4
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeMar 02, 2016This sequence change deletes 4 nucleotides from exon 16 of the APC mRNA (c.3471_3474delGAGA), causing a frameshift at codon 1157. This creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu1157Aspfs*7) and is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Truncating variants in APC are known to be pathogenic. This particular truncation has been reported in the literature in patients affected with familial adenomatous polyposis (PMID: 10440612, 16676398, 20685668, 17411426, 20223039). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMyriad Genetics, Inc.May 08, 2023This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant creates a frameshift predicted to result in premature protein truncation. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 10, 2023This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu1157Aspfs*7) in the APC gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 1687 amino acid(s) of the APC protein. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with familial adenomatous polyposis (PMID: 10440612, 16676398, 17411426, 20223039, 20685668). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 186532). This variant is expected to disrupt the EB1 and HDLG binding sites, which mediate interactions with the cytoskeleton (PMID: 15311282, 17293347). While functional studies have not been performed to directly test the effect on APC protein function, this suggests that disruption of the C-terminal portion of the protein is functionally important. A different truncation (p.Tyr2645Lysfs*14) that lies downstream of this variant has been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 9824584, 1316610, 27081525, 8381579, 22135120, Invitae). This suggests that deletion of this region of the APC protein is causative of disease. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJul 30, 2020The c.3471_3474delGAGA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 15 of the APC gene, results from a deletion of 4 nucleotides at nucleotide positions 3471 to 3474, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.E1157Dfs*7). This mutation has been reported in multiple individuals with a clinical diagnosis of FAP or AFAP (Norheim Andersen S et al. Scand. J. Gastroenterol.,1999 Jun;34:611-7; Friedl W et al. Hered Cancer Clin Pract, 2005 Sep;3:95-114; Soravia C et al. Int J Colorectal Dis, 2006 Jan;21:79-83; Andresen PA et al. J. Cancer Res. Clin. Oncol., 2009 Oct;135:1463-70; Papp J et al. Fam. Cancer, 2016 Jan;15:85-97). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
