Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points: 7P and 0B. PVS1_ModeratePM2_SupportingPS4

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: 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 ≥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).

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.

Familial adenomatous polyposis 1 Pathogenic:3
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpNov 27, 2023This 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 submitterclinical testingMyriad Genetics, Inc.Apr 27, 2023This 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. -

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).

not provided Pathogenic:2Uncertain:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxApr 27, 2017This 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. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 18, 2019The 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. -
