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]

Lynch syndrome Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineMar 28, 2022The c.903G>T (p.Lys301Lys) variant in PMS2 has been identified in at least 2 individuals with PMS2_associated cancers (Matejcic 2020 PMID: 32832836) and has also been reported by other clinical laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID 237932). This variant has also been identified in 0.003% (3/113600) of European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Although this silent variant does not alter an amino acid residue, it is located in the last base of the exon, which is part of the 5’ splice region. Computational tools suggest an impact to splicing. A different variant at the same nucleotide position (c.903G>T, p.Lys301Asn) has been reported in individuals with Lynch syndrome (Senter 2008 PMID: 18602922, Lavoine 2015 PMID: 26318770, Suerink 2015 PMID: 26110232). Additionally, in vitro functional splicing studies have shown that the c.903G>T change causes aberrant splicing that leads to skipping of exon 8 and results in a premature stop codon (van der Klift 2015 PMID: 26247049), suggesting that variants at this position are likely to disrupt RNA splicing. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for autosomal dominant Lynch syndrome. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PS4_Supporting, PM2_Supporting, PP3, PM5_Supporting, PS3_Moderate. -
not provided Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMar 15, 2022Variant at the last nucleotide of the exon in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease, and splice predictors support a deleterious effect; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Observed in individuals with a personal history of prostate cancer in published literature (Matejcic 2020); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 31447099, 32832836) -
Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpSep 19, 2023This sequence change affects codon 301 of the PMS2 mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the PMS2 protein. RNA analysis indicates that this variant induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs267608153, gnomAD 0.002%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with Lynch-related cancers (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 237932). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Studies have shown that this variant results in skipping of exon 8 and introduces a premature termination codon (Invitae). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. This variant disrupts the c.903G nucleotide in the PMS2 gene. Other variant(s) that disrupt this nucleotide have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 18602922, 26110232). This suggests that this nucleotide is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this position are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsFeb 08, 2022The c.903G>A pathogenic mutation (also known as p.K301K), located in coding exon 8 of the PMS2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 903. This nucleotide substitution does not change the lysine at codon 301. However, this change occurs in the last base pair of coding exon 8, which makes it likely to have some effect on normal mRNA splicing. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in abnormal splicing in the set of samples tested (Ambry internal data). This variant has been identified in a proband(s) whose Lynch syndrome-associated tumor demonstrated high microsatellite instability and/or loss of PMS2 expression by immunohistochemistry (IHC) (Ambry internal data). Another alteration impacting the same donor site (c.903G>T) has been shown to have a similar impact on splicing in multiple patients whose Lynch syndrome-associated tumors demonstrated isolated loss of PMS2 on IHC (Senter L et al. Gastroenterology. 2008 August; 135(2):419-28; Tomsic J et al. Clin. Genet. 2013 Mar; 83(3):238-43; van der Klift HM et al. Mol. Genet. Genomic Med 2015 Jul; 3(4):327-45; Ambry internal data). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
Lynch syndrome 4 Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMyriad Genetics, Inc.Sep 19, 2023This variant is considered likely pathogenic. mRNA analysis has demonstrated abnormal mRNA splicing occurs [Myriad internal data]. -
