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.

Apr 28, 2023
Myriad Genetics, Inc.
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. -

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 9 of the APC gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and likely results in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with familial adenomatous polyposis (PMID: 8844222, 20685668). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 233970). Donor and acceptor splice site variants 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). 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. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.933+1G>A intronic pathogenic mutation results from a G to A substitution one nucleotide after coding exon 8 of the APC gene. Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. This mutation has been identified in an FAP kindred (Wells D et al, Hum. Mutat. 1996 ; 8(2):193-5) and in colonic polyposis patients (Lagarde A et al. J Med Genet, 2010 Oct;47:721-2; Ambry internal data). This mutation was also reported on multigene panel testing in a cohort of individuals considered to be at high risk for hereditary colon cancer (Park JS et al. Dis Colon Rectum, 2022 Jun;65:793-803). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. Based on the supporting evidence, this variant is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
