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

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 5.7, offset of 1, new splice context is: cttgccctttttaaattaAGggg. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 5-112827107-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr5-112827107-G-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 433621.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: no assertion criteria provided

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.1409-1G>A variant has been identified in the literature in 2 of 2244 proband chromosomes from individuals with FAP and non-FAP colorectal carcinoma (Aretz 2004, Wallis 1999), although no control chromosomes were tested to establish the prevalence of the variant in the general population. It is predicted to cause abnormal splicing because the nucleotide substitution occurs in the -1 position of the splice consensus sequence, and a G at this position is required for normal splicing. In summary, based on the above information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 11 of the APC gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) (PMID: 9950360, 15459959, 19036155, 20685668; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 433621). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in the creation of a novel acceptor site and introduces a premature termination codon (PMID: 15459959). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant is considered likely pathogenic. This variant occurs within a consensus splice junction and is predicted to result in abnormal mRNA splicing of either an out-of-frame exon or an in-frame exon necessary for protein stability and/or normal function. Functional studies indicate this variant impacts protein function [PMID: 15459959]. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.1409-1G>A intronic pathogenic mutation results from a G to A substitution one nucleotide upstream from coding exon 11 of the APC gene. This pathogenic mutation has been reported in multiple FAP families, and it has been shown to create a new acceptor splice site one base pair downstream with a lower splicing efficiency but no indication of exon skipping (Ambry internal data; Wallis YL et al. J Med Genet. 1999 Jan;36(1):14-20; Aretz S et al. Hum Mutat. 2004 Nov;24(5):370-80). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice acceptor site and will result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice acceptor site. In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -
