Genes affected
MUTYH (HGNC:7527): (mutY DNA glycosylase) This gene encodes a DNA glycosylase involved in oxidative DNA damage repair. The enzyme excises adenine bases from the DNA backbone at sites where adenine is inappropriately paired with guanine, cytosine, or 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine, a major oxidatively damaged DNA lesion. The protein is localized to the nucleus and mitochondria. This gene product is thought to play a role in signaling apoptosis by the introduction of single-strand breaks following oxidative damage. Mutations in this gene result in heritable predisposition to colorectal cancer, termed MUTYH-associated polyposis (MAP). Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2017]

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

The MUTYH c.1484G>A (p.Arg495His) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.0069% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/1-45796222-C-T?dataset=gnomad_r2_1). In silico tools are not in agreement about the effect of this variant on protein function. Functional studies have examined the DNA glycosylase activity and ability to suppress mutations caused by 8-hydroxyguanine, an oxidized form of guanine, for this variant by a DNA cleavage activity assay and supF forward mutation assay, respectively. Both assays demonstrated that this variant behaves similar to the wild-type (BS3_supporting; PMID: 26694661). This variant has been reported as heterozygous in an individual with endometrial cancer (PMID: 27443514) and a pediatric precursor B-ALL patient (PMID: 33332384). It has also been identified in an individual with breast cancer and several family members with various cancer types (PMID: 30374176); other germline variants, including a likely pathogenic variant in PMS2, were also identified in the family. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as of uncertain significance based on the ACMG/AMP criteria: BS3_supporting. -

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

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 495 of the MUTYH protein (p.Arg495His). This variant is present in population databases (rs144111588, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with endometrial cancer (PMID: 27443514). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 142440). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

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

This missense variant replaces arginine with histidine at codon 495 of the MUTYH protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with melanoma (PMID: 29684080), at least one individual affected with endometrial cancer (PMID: 26832770, 27443514), and reported to occur in 0.12% of the Japanese population (PMID: 26694661). This variant has been identified in 8/272492 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

In the published literature, this variant has been reported in individuals with endometrial cancer (PMID: 27443514 (2016)), melanoma (PMID: 29684080 (2018)), and breast cancer (PMID: 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (https://databases.lovd.nl/shared/variants/MUTYH)). This variant was also reported in unaffected individuals (PMID: 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (https://databases.lovd.nl/shared/variants/MUTYH)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000032 (4/123842 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Variant summary: MUTYH c.1484G>A (p.Arg495His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.1e-05 in 241088 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.1484G>A has been reported in Lynch Syndrome patients in the literature, one in the tumor of a patient who carried a likely pathogenic MSH2 germline variant, as well as in the germline of a patient carrying a pathogenic MSH6 variant (Vargas-Parra_2017, Ring_2016). However, due to the predominantly recessive mode of inheritance attributed to variants in MUTYH, the possibility of incidental carrier status for a pathogenic variant cannot be excluded. The DNA glycosylase activity and ability to suppress mutations caused by 8-hydroxyguanine, an oxidized form of guanine, were examined for the nine variants of type 2 MUTYH, a nuclear form of the enzyme, by DNA cleavage activity assay and supF forward mutation assay, respectively (Shinmura_2016). The variant was similar to WT in DNA glycosylase activity and mutation frequency of the supF gene. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 27443514, 26694661, 28577310, 30374176, 36702877, 35991532, 34816434, 32321774, 36243179, 26673799, 37095444, 34326862). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 142440). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

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

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.Arg495His variant was not identified in the literature. This residue is conserved in mammals but not lower organisms such as chicken or zebrafish where a Lysine (Lys) is present at this position. In addition, computational analyses (PolyPhen, SIFT, AlignGVGD) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein, but this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. This variant was identified in the dbSNP database (ID: rs144111588) but was not validated and in the exome variant server in a European cohort with a frequency of 0.00023 increasing the likelihood that this may be a low frequency rare variant in this population of origin. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -
