Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV004564801 SCV002167650 pathogenic Familial adenomatous polyposis 1 2022-01-26 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with APC-related conditions. This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Tyr1854*) in the APC gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 990 amino acid(s) of the APC protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant is expected to disrupt the EB1 and HDLG binding sites, which mediate interactions with the cytoskeleton (PMID: 15311282, 17293347). While functional studies have not been performed to directly test the effect on APC protein function, this suggests that disruption of the C-terminal portion of the protein is functionally important. A different truncation (p.Tyr2645Lysfs*14) that lies downstream of this variant has been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 9824584, 1316610, 27081525, 8381579, 22135120, Invitae). This suggests that deletion of this region of the APC protein is causative of disease. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Ambry Genetics RCV004945777 SCV005460128 likely pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2024-07-24 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Y1854* variant (also known as c.5562C>G), located in coding exon 15 of the APC gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 5562. This changes the amino acid from a tyrosine to a stop codon within coding exon 15. This alteration occurs at the 3' terminus of theAPC gene, is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, and impacts the last 34.9% of the protein. However, premature stop codons are typically deleterious in nature and the impacted region is critical for protein function (Ambry internal data). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic.
