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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthMar 27, 2023This missense variant replaces glutamic acid with glutamine at codon 504 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). A functional study has shown that this variant does not impact mismatch-repair activity of the PMS2 protein (PMID: 27435373). This variant has been reported in an individual affected with suspected Lynch syndrome (PMID: 27435373) and in an individual affected with colorectal cancer (PMID: 28135145). This variant has also been identified in 9/282786 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. -
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJun 13, 2018This 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. -
not provided Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoJul 19, 2021The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000062 (8/129134 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in at least two individuals with colorectal cancer (PMIDs: 27435373 (2016), 28135145 (2017)). Tumor analysis from an affected individual who also carried the MLH1 c.1744C>T variant showed microsatellite instability (MSI-H) and loss of MLH1 and PMS2 proteins (PMID: 27435373 (2016)). However, a further functional study indicated that this variant was proficient in mismatch repair activity in vitro (PMID: 27435373 (2016)). Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded conflicting predictions that this variant is benign or damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJan 23, 2023Variant summary: PMS2 c.1510G>C (p.Glu504Gln) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Two predict the variant creates a cryptic 3' acceptor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.8e-05 in 251388 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. The variant, c.1510G>C, has been reported in the literature in individuals suspected with Lynch Syndrome or colorectal cancer (van der Klift_2016, Yurgelum_2017). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer. At least one publication, van der Klift_2016, reports this variant was proficient in mismatch repair (MMR) activity, showing no damaging effect of this variant. Six clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as VUS (n=5) and likely benign (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign. -

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. -
Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 31, 2024This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 504 of the PMS2 protein (p.Glu504Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs368516768, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with colorectal cancer and/or Lynch syndrome (PMID: 27435373, 28135145). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 91305). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt PMS2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect PMS2 function (PMID: 27435373). RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this missense change on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (Invitae). 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. -

Malignant tumor of breast Benign:1
Likely benign, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The PMS2 p.Glu504Gln variant was identified in 2 of 2908 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.0007) from Dutch and American individuals or families with CRC or suspected hereditary cancer (van der Klift 2016,Yurgelun 2017). The variant co-occurred with MLH1 c.1744C>T, p.Leu582Phe in one patient and was found to show proficiency in a functional MMR assay (van der Klift 2016). The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs368516768) “With other allele”, ClinVar (classified uncertain significance by InSIGHT, Invitae, GeneDx and Color, and likely benign by Ambry Genetics). The variant was also identified in control databases in 10 of 277148 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00004 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017), observed in the following populations: African in 1 of 24030 chromosomes (freq: 0.00004) and European Non-Finnish in 9 of 126660 chromosomes (freq: 0.00007); it was not observed in the Other, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, European Finnish, and South Asian populations. The variant was identified by our laboratory in 1 individual with breast cancer, co-occurring with a pathogenic BRCA2 variant (c.2808_2811del, p.Ala938ProfsX21), increasing the likelihood the p.Glu504Gln variant does not have clinical significance in the context of hereditary breast cancer. The p.Glu504 residue is not conserved in mammals and four out of five computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood the variant Gln impacts the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and 2 of 4 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing; this is not very predictive of pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign. -
