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:2
Oct 26, 2023
Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces proline with threonine at codon 246 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). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with PMS2-related disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 5/247584 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.

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

The p.P246T variant (also known as c.736C>A), located in coding exon 7 of the PMS2 gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 736. The proline at codon 246 is replaced by threonine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is well 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.

This variant has been identified in 5/247584 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD).

Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Uncertain:1
Dec 15, 2024
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 246 of the PMS2 protein (p.Pro246Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs765668173, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PMS2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 434028). 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
Neuberg Centre For Genomic Medicine, NCGM
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The missense variant c.736C>A (p.Pro246Thr) in PMS2 gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Uncertain significance.The p.Pro246Thr variant is novel (not in any individuals) in 1000 Genomes and allele frequency of 0.00002020 is reported in gnomAD. The amino acid Pro at position 246 is changed to a Thr changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. In silico tools predict the variant to be tolerated. The residue is conserved across species. The amino acid change p.Pro246Thr in PMS2 is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Uncertain Significance .

Endometrial carcinoma Uncertain:1
Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.Pro246Thr variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in the GeneInsight, HGMD, COSMIC, Mut, MMR, InSiGHT Colon Cancer and ClinVar databases. The p.Pro246 residue is conserved/not conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein; this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. Four out of five computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein.The p.Pro246Thr variant is predicted to cause a missense mutation, which has an unknown impact on the protein. In summary, based on the above information this variant meets our laboratory's criteria to be classified as a VARIANT OF UNKNOWN SIGNIFICANCE.
