Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 0 ACMG points: 0P and 0B.
The NM_000535.7(PMS2):c.355G>A(p.Asp119Asn) variant causes a missense, splice region change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000106 in 1,610,490 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. 13/23 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★).

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
This missense variant replaces aspartic acid with asparagine at codon 119 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 2/282534 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.D119N variant (also known as c.355G>A), located in coding exon 5 of the PMS2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 355. The aspartic acid at codon 119 is replaced by asparagine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant was reported in 0/60,466 breast cancer cases and in 1/53,461 controls (Dorling et al. N Engl J Med. 2021 02;384:428-439). This amino acid position is well 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. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Variant summary: PMS2 c.355G>A (p.Asp119Asn) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the DNA mismatch repair protein family, N-terminal domain (IPR002099) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. In addition, the variant is located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing: 5/5 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251140 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This observation needs to be cautiously considered due to the possibility of the PMS2 pseudogene being captured. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.355G>A in individuals affected with Lynch Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Two other clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, and both of them classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Breast and/or ovarian cancer Uncertain:1

PMS2-related disorder Uncertain:1
The PMS2 c.355G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Asp119Asn. This variant was reported in one control but not in affected individuals in a large breast cancer case-control study (described as chr7_6042266_C_T in Supplementary Data, Breast Cancer Association et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 33471991). This variant is reported in 0.0040% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD and is interpreted as uncertain significance in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/455716/). 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
Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek 2016); In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 119 of the PMS2 protein (p.Asp119Asn). This variant is present in population databases (rs587781913, gnomAD 0.004%). 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: 455716). 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. -
