Genes affected
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]

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:3

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health
Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This missense variant replaces a highly conserved glutamic acid with lysine at codon 661 of the PMS2 protein. Computational prediction tools are inconsistent with regard to the impact of this variant on protein structure and function. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in a few individuals affected with colorectal cancer in the Icelandic population, whose tumors showed normal PMS2 expression (PMID: 28466842). The variant has been reported to occur at 0.29% frequency in the Icelandic population (PMID: 28466842). In the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD), this variant has only been identified in 4/246208 chromosomes. This variant appears to be a common benign variant in the Icelandic population, but additional studies are necessary to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

The p.E661K variant (also known as c.1981G>A), located in coding exon 11 of the PMS2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1981. The glutamic acid at codon 661 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration was reported as a variant of uncertain significance in a patient with a juvenile polyp diagnosed at age 36 (Jelsig AM et al. Scand. J. Gastroenterol. 2016 Sep;51(9):1118-25). This alteration was detected in a study of 1165 individuals with a history of colorectal cancer or colon polyps as well as 590 controls (Gordon AS et al. Am J Hum Genet, 2019 Sep;105:526-533). It was also observed in 3/1182 Icelandic colorectal cancer patients with normal immunohistochemical (IHC) staining (Haraldsdottir S et al. Nat. Commun. 2017 May;8:14755). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

The p.Glu661Lys variant in PMS2 has not been previously reported in individuals with Lynch syndrome, but has been identified in 2/66538 of European chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs778531080). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that the p.Glu661Lys variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In summary, the clinical signi ficance of the p.Glu661Lys variant is uncertain. -

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

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -

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

This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 661 of the PMS2 protein (p.Glu661Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs778531080, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer, colorectal cancer, and/or uterine cancer (PMID: 27146957, 28466842, 34326862). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 455676). Invitae Evidence Modeling incorporating data from in vitro experimental studies (internal data) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt PMS2 function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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. -
