## Abstract Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is an autosomal dominant syndrome predisposing to colorectal cancer and affects 1 in 5–10,000 births. Inheritance of a mutant allele of the adenomatous polyposis coli (__APC__) gene is the cause of ∼80% of FAP and 20–30% of an attenuated form of FAP

Inactivation of the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene has been shown to initiate the majority of colorectal cancer (CRC), including a familial form called familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). One consequence of the APC mutation is the activation of the ␤-catenin (CTNNB1)/T-cell transcription fa
