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]

The PMS2 c.936G>A (p.Met312Ile) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.1% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (BS1; https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/7-6031656-C-T). This variant results in a conservative amino acid change at a poorly conserved residue, and six of seven in silico tools predict a benign effect of this variant on protein function (BP4). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely benign based on the ACMG/AMP criteria: BS1, BP4. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

The PMS2 c.3G>A variant is predicted to disrupt the translation initiation site (Start Loss). This variant has been reported in individuals with leukemia, breast, and kidney cancer (Supplement, Tung et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25186627; Table S4a, referred to as M312I/rs139194813, Zhang et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26580448; Table S9, TCGA ID: KIRP_5561-10A, Yehia et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29684080). This variant is reported in 0.10% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD and has conflicting interpretations regarding its pathogenicity in ClinVar, ranging from benign to uncertain (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/142959/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Variant summary: PMS2 c.936G>A (p.Met312Ile) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the DNA mismatch repair protein, N-terminal domain (IPR002099) and S5 domain 2-like domains (IPR013507) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 9.6e-05 in 282666 control chromosomes (gnomAD), predominantly at a frequency of 0.001 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 14 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in PMS2 causing Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer phenotype (7.1e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African or African-American origin. Although this data should be interpreted with caution for PMS2 variants since there are a large number of pseudogenes, the sequence surrounding this variant appears to have low pseudogene overlap via BLAT. c.936G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with pediatric cancer, breast cancer, and hereditary colorectal cancer without evidence for causality (examples- Zhang_2015, Tung_2014, Marabelli_2020). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Nine ClinVar submitters have assessed the variant since 2014: two classify the variant as uncertain significance, six as likely benign, and one as benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
