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

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 14 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing variant, NOT destroyed by nmd, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.013244257 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 4.7, offset of -32, new splice context is: tagGTacct. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
• PP3: Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
• PP5: Variant 5-112780904-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr5-112780904-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 218000.Status of the report is reviewed_by_expert_panel, 3 stars. Variant chr5-112780904-G-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Familial adenomatous polyposis 1 Pathogenic:3

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Myriad Genetics, Inc.	Apr 27, 2023	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. -
Likely pathogenic, reviewed by expert panel	curation	ClinGen InSiGHT Hereditary Colorectal Cancer/Polyposis Variant Curation Expert Panel	Feb 18, 2023	The c.645+1G>A variant in APC occurs within the canonical splice donor site +1 of intron 6. It is predicted to result in an inframe skipping of exon 6 (PVS1_Moderate). The results from more than 2 in silico splicing predictors (SpliceAI, MaxEntScan, VarSeak) indicate that this variant may affect splicing by disrupting the donor splice site of intron 6 (PP3 supplanted by PVS1_Moderate). RT-PCR of patient blood demonstrated that the variant impacts splicing by removing exon 6 from the transcript, resulting in an NMD-escaping in-frame event with uncertain impact (PMID: 22987206, PS3 supplanted by PVS1_Moderate). This variant has been reported in 9 families with FAP with a total phenotype score of 6 points (PS4; Ambry, Invitae, GeneDX, Barcelona, Edinburgh and Leiden internal data; PMID 22987206; PMID 17411426; PMID 20685668; PMID 8381580). This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1.1 (PM2_supporting). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Likely Pathogenic for FAP based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen InSiGHT Hereditary Colorectal Cancer/Polyposis Variant Curation Expert Panel: PVS1_Moderate, PS4, and PM2_Supporting; (VCEP specifications version 1; date of approval: 12/12/2022). -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Nov 27, 2023	This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 6 of the APC gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in APC are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17963004, 20685668). 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 (PMID: 8381580, 17411426, 20685668, 22987206). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 218000). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	Apr 27, 2017	This variant is denoted APC c.645+1G>A or IVS6+1G>A and consists of a G>A nucleotide substitution at the +1 position of intron 6 of the APC gene. This variant destroys a canonical splice donor site and is predicted to cause abnormal gene splicing, leading to either an abnormal message that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay or to an abnormal protein product. This variant has been reported in individuals with a history of familial adenomatous polyposis (Olschwang 1993, Lagarde 2010). Based on the currently available information, we consider APC c.645+1G>A to be a likely pathogenic variant. -

The c.645+1G>A intronic pathogenic mutation results from a G to A substitution one nucleotide after coding exon 5 of the APC gene. This alteration was identified in 1/934 French patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) (Lagarde A et al. J. Med. Genet., 2010 Oct;47:721-2), and in a cohort of 160 unrelated patients with FAP (Olschwang S et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet., 1993 Feb;52:273-9). 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 a disease-causing mutation. -
