Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000535.7(PMS2):c.2192T>A(p.Leu731Ter) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. L731L) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.
PMS2 (HGNC:9122): (PMS1 homolog 2, mismatch repair system component) The protein encoded by this gene is a key component of the mismatch repair system that functions to correct DNA mismatches and small insertions and deletions that can occur during DNA replication and homologous recombination. This protein forms heterodimers with the gene product of the mutL homolog 1 (MLH1) gene to form the MutL-alpha heterodimer. The MutL-alpha heterodimer possesses an endonucleolytic activity that is activated following recognition of mismatches and insertion/deletion loops by the MutS-alpha and MutS-beta heterodimers, and is necessary for removal of the mismatched DNA. There is a DQHA(X)2E(X)4E motif found at the C-terminus of the protein encoded by this gene that forms part of the active site of the nuclease. Mutations in this gene have been associated with hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC; also known as Lynch syndrome) and Turcot syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2016]
Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.
PVS1
?
PVS1 - null variant (nonsense, frameshift, canonical ±1 or 2 splice sites, initiation codon, single or multiexon deletion) in a gene where LOF is a known mechanism of disease
Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
PM2
?
PM2 - Absent from controls (or at extremely low frequency if recessive) in Exome Sequencing Project, 1000 Genomes Project, or Exome Aggregation Consortium
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
?
PP5 - Reputable source recently reports variant as pathogenic, but the evidence is not available to the laboratory to perform an independent evaluation
Variant 7-5978679-A-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-5978679-A-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 480369.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
The p.L731* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.2192T>A), located in coding exon 13 of the PMS2 gene, results from a T to A substitution at nucleotide position 2192. This changes the amino acid from a leucine to a stop codon within coding exon 13. One study identified a different alteration leading to the same premature stop codon, p.L731* (c.2192T>G), in three Jewish families from Iran with Lynch syndrome (Goldberg Y et al. Clin. Genet., 2015 Jun;87:549-53). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
