Our verdict is Benign. Variant got -13 ACMG points: 0P and 13B. BP4_StrongBP6_Very_StrongBP7
The NM_000535.7(PMS2):c.1656T>C(p.His552His) variant causes a synonymous change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000533 in 1,614,000 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely benign (★★).
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]
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.91).

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

The PMS2 p.His552= variant was not identified in the literature. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs113726095) as "With Likely benign allele" and ClinVar (classified as likely benign by Invitae, Ambry Genetics, GeneDx and Color). The variant was identified in 21 of 276914 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00008 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). It was observed in the following populations: African in 5 of 23880 chromosomes (freq: 0.0002), Other in 1 of 6466 chromosomes (freq: 0.0002), Latino in 2 of 34420 chromosomes (freq: 0.00006), European in 10 of 126558 chromosomes (freq: 0.00008), and South Asian in 3 of 30782 chromosomes (freq: 0.00009); it was not observed in the Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, or Finnish populations. The p.His552= variant is not expected to have clinical significance because it does not result in a change of amino acid and is not located in a known consensus splice site. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign. -
