Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PVS1 PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000038.6(APC):​c.524_531+4delCTGAAAATGTAA​(p.Thr175PhefsTer2667) variant causes a frameshift, splice donor, splice region, intron change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type DEL_BIG, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. T175T) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

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.

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. Loss-of-function variants in APC are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17963004, 20685668). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with APC-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 217993). This variant is a deletion of the genomic region encompassing part of exon 5 (c.524_531+4del) of the APC gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and likely results in an absent or disrupted protein product. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.524_531+4del12 pathogenic mutation, located at the 3' end of coding exon 4 in the APC gene, results from a deletion of 8 coding nucleotides and 4 intronic nucleotides at positions c.524 to c.531+4. Since both frameshifts and canonical splice donor site disruptions are typically deleterious in nature, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation (ACMG Recommendations for Standards for Interpretation and Reporting of Sequence Variations. Revision 2007. Genet Med. 2008;10:294). -
