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]

See Shirts et al 2018, PMID 29887214. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthAug 28, 2023This missense variant replaces arginine with histidine at codon 169 of the PMS2 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). A functional study analyzing somatic driver variants was inconclusive for this variant (PMID: 29887214). have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 31433215) and an individual affected with breast cancer (PMID: 30039884). This variant has been identified in 3/281050 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. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsSep 15, 2023The p.R169H variant (also known as c.506G>A), located in coding exon 5 of the PMS2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 506. The arginine at codon 169 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. Using a Bayesian analysis that incorporates tumor mutation data, this variant was classified as a variant of uncertain significance (Shirts BH et al. Am J Hum Genet. 2018 Jul 5;103(1):19-29). In an in vitro complementation assay, this variant had reduced mismatch repair activity compared to wild type PMS2 (Rayner E et al. Hum Mutat, 2022 Sep;43:1249-1258). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthAug 17, 2023This missense variant replaces arginine with histidine at codon 169 of the PMS2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 31433215) and an individual affected with breast cancer (PMID: 30039884). This variant has been identified in 3/281050 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. -
PMS2-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesJun 22, 2023The PMS2 c.506G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg169His. This variant has been reported in a patient with Lynch syndrome (Okkels et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 31433215), an individual with breast cancer (Dong et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 30039884), and in a study of somatic mutations in tumors (Table S3, Shirts et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29887214). This variant is reported in 0.0023% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/7-6042115-C-T) and is interpreted as uncertain in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/182811/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxOct 27, 2017This variant is denoted PMS2 c.506G>A at the cDNA level, p.Arg169His (R169H) at the protein level, and results in the change of an Arginine to a Histidine (CGC>CAC). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. PMS2 Arg169His was not observed at a significant allele frequency in large population cohorts (Lek 2016). Since Arginine and Histidine share similar properties, this is considered a conservative amino acid substitution. PMS2 Arg169His occurs at a position that is conserved across species and is located in the ATPase domain (Guarne 2001). In silico analyses predict that this variant is probably damaging to protein structure and function. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether PMS2 Arg169His is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance -
Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 15, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 169 of the PMS2 protein (p.Arg169His). This variant is present in population databases (rs730881917, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer and clinical features of Lynch syndrome (PMID: 30039884, 31433215). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 182811). 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 expected to disrupt PMS2 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects PMS2 function (PMID: 35451539). 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. -
