This variant is denoted PMS2 c.1918G>A at the cDNA level, p.Glu640Lys (E640K) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Glutamic Acid to a Lysine (GAA>AAA). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as a germline variant; however, it has been reported as a somatic variant in a lung tumor (Shi 2016). PMS2 Glu640Lys was not observed at a significant allele frequency in large population cohorts (Lek 2016). PMS2 Glu640Lys is located in the MLH1 interaction domain (Kondo 2001). In-silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports that this variant does not alter protein structure/function. Based on currently available information, it is unclear whether PMS2 Glu640Lys is pathogenic or benign. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
This missense variant replaces glutamic acid with lysine at codon 640 of the PMS2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has been identified in 1/251322 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. -
The p.E640K variant (also known as c.1918G>A), located in coding exon 11 of the PMS2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1918. The glutamic acid at codon 640 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is poorly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Lynch syndrome 1 Uncertain:1

Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 640 of the PMS2 protein (p.Glu640Lys). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 35449176). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 360542). 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. -
Lynch syndrome 4 Uncertain:1
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. -
