Description
Variant summary: The APC c.7821C>T (p.Ser2607Ser) causes a synonymous change involving a non-conserved nucleotide with 5/5 splice prediction tools predicting no significant impact on splicing, although these predictions have yet to be functionally assessed. The variant of interest was observed in the large, broad control population, ExAC, with an allele frequency of 110/120952 (3 homozygotes, 1/1111), predominantly observed in the South Asian, 107/16502 (3 homozygotes, 1/154), which significantly exceeds the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic APC variant of 1/14,0005 (0.0000714). Therefore, suggesting this variant is a common polymorphism found in population(s) of South Asian orign. The variant of interest, to our knowledge, has not been reported in affected individuals via publications, although multiple reputable clinical laboratories cite the variant as "likely benign/benign." Therefore, taking all available lines of evidence into consideration, the variant of interest is classified as Benign.
