Ambry Genetics | RCV000491900 | SCV000579829 | pathogenic | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2014-08-07 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.2991_2996delTGGTCA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 15 of the APC gene, results from a deletion of six nucleotides between positions 2991 and 2996. The resulting translational frameshift changes the amino acid at codon 997 from a tyrosine to a stop codon. Since frameshifts and premature stop codons 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). |
