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]

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.164-1G>C intronic pathogenic mutation results from a G to C substitution one nucleotide upstream from coding exon 3 of the PMS2 gene. This variant has been identified in probands whose Lynch syndrome-associated tumor demonstrated high microsatellite instability and/or loss of PMS2 expression by immunohistochemistry (IHC; Li S et al. J. Med. Genet. 2020 Jan;57:62-69; Ambry internal data). This alteration was also detected in an individual diagnosed with colorectal cancer at 45, and an individual diagnosed with endometrial cancer at 55 with demonstrated high microsatellite instability; however, the IHC results for the endometrial cancer demonstrated loss of MSH6 expression and were non-interpretable for PMS2 (Goodenberger ML et al. Genet Med, 2016 Jan;18:13-9; Wang Q et al. J Med Genet, 2020 07;57:487-499). In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice acceptor site and will result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice acceptor site. RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in abnormal splicing in the set of samples tested (Ambry internal data). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as a disease-causing mutation. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant causes a G to C nucleotide substitution at the -1 position of intron 2 of the PMS2 gene. Functional RNA studies have shown that this variant causes a partial deletion of exon 3, resulting in premature truncation (PMID: 32761968). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 25856668, 31992580; ClinVar SCV000216319.6, SCV000572224.5). This variant has been identified in 1/248116 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of PMS2 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.164-1G>C variant in the PMS2 gene is located at the canonical splice site of intron 2 and is predicted to cause alternative splicing, resulting in an absent or disrupted protein product. Experimental study of mRNA transcripts from patient samples showed partial deletion of exon 3 and truncated protein (PMID: 32761968). The variant has been reported in multiple individuals with Lynch syndrome-associated cancers (PMID: 31992580, 28514183, 32761968, 34793666, 30376427). Loss-of-function variants in PMS2 are known to be pathogenic for Lynch syndrome (PMID: 28514183, 25512458, 35223509). The variant is reported in ClinVar (ID: 186061). The variant is rare in the general population according to gnomAD (1/248116). Therefore, the c.164-1G>C variant of PMS2 has been classified as pathogenic. -

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 2 of the PMS2 gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or altered protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs763308607, gnomAD 0.006%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with PMS2-related conditions (PMID: 23709753, 25856668, 28514183, 31992580, 32761968). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 186061). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in activation of a cryptic splice site, and produces a non-functional protein and/or introduces a premature termination codon (internal data). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
