Genes affected

MUTYH (HGNC:7527): (mutY DNA glycosylase) This gene encodes a DNA glycosylase involved in oxidative DNA damage repair. The enzyme excises adenine bases from the DNA backbone at sites where adenine is inappropriately paired with guanine, cytosine, or 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine, a major oxidatively damaged DNA lesion. The protein is localized to the nucleus and mitochondria. This gene product is thought to play a role in signaling apoptosis by the introduction of single-strand breaks following oxidative damage. Mutations in this gene result in heritable predisposition to colorectal cancer, termed MUTYH-associated polyposis (MAP). Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2017]

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg368Glnfs*164) in the MUTYH gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 182 amino acid(s) of the MUTYH protein. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with attenuated familial adenomatous polyposis and colon and breast cancer (PMID: 16941501, 24953332). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is also known as c.1059dupC (Arg354Glnfs*164). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 185770). This variant disrupts the conserved PCNA binding motif of the MUTYH protein, which has been shown to be critical for MUTYH-PCNA binding and repair efficiency (PMID: 11092888, 26377631, 11433026, 11864576). While functional studies have not been performed to directly test the effect of this variant on MUTYH protein function, this suggests that disruption of this region of the protein is causative of disease. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: MUTYH c.1101dupC (p.Arg368GlnfsX164) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 250124 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1101dupC has been reported in the literature in compound heterozygous individuals affected with MUTYH-Associated Polyposis or colorectal cancer (e.g. Lejeune_2006, Castillejo_2014, Thomas_2021). In addition, the variant has been reported in heterozygous individuals affected with breast and ovarian cancer (e.g. Bonache_2018, Feliubadalo_2019, Ramirez-Calvo_2019). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Four ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant inserts 1 nucleotide in exon 12 of the MUTYH gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant is also known as c.1059dupC (Arg354Glnfs*164). This variant has been observed in biallelic individuals affected with colorectal cancer and/or polyposis (PMID: 16941501, 24953332, 33130102). This variant has been identified in 1/250124 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of MUTYH function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.1101dupC pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 12 of the MUTYH gene, results from a duplication of C at nucleotide position 1101, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.R368Qfs*164). This alteration has been detected in conjunction with another MUTYH mutation in patients diagnosed with colorectal cancer and/or polyps (Lejeune S. et al. Hum Mutat. 2006 Oct;27(10):1064; Castillejo A et al. Eur J Cancer. 2014 Sep;50(13):2241-50). This alteration as also been detected as monoallelic in patients diagnosed with breast or ovarian cancer (Bonache S et al. J Cancer Res Clin Oncol. 2018 Oct 10). This variant is designated as 1059dupC in published literature. In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

PVS1, PM3, PM2_supporting c.1101dup, located in exon 12 of the MUTYH gene, consists in the duplication of 1 nucleotide, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon, p.(Arg368Glnfs*164). This alteration affects a critical region to protein function and the PTC is created after 532 codon (PVS1). It is not present in the population database gnomAD v2.1.1, non cancer dataset (PM2_supporting). In addition, it has been reported in ClinVar (5x as pathogenic, 1x as likely pathogenic) and in LOVD (2x likely pathogenic) databases. This variation has been observed in compound heterozygous state in multiple individuals with MUTYH-Associated Polyposis (PMID: PMID: 24953332, PMID: 16941501 and internal data) (PM3_moderate). Computational tools predict no significant impact on splicing. Based on currently available information, the variant c.1101dup is classified as a pathogenic variant according to ACMG guidelines. -

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Collection Method: clinical testing

This duplication of one nucleotide in MUTYH is denoted c.1101dupC at the cDNA level and p.Arg368GlnfsX164 (R368QfsX164) at the protein level. The normal sequence, with the base that is duplicated in brackets, is GCCCCC[dupC]AGGG. The duplication causes a frameshift which changes an Arginine to a Glutamine at codon 368, and creates a premature stop codon at position 164 of the new reading frame. Even though nonsense-mediated decay is not expected to occur due to the position of the variant, it is significant since the last 182 amino acids are no longer translated correctly and are replaced by 163 incorrect ones. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation. MUTYH Arg368GlnfsX164 has been reported in the compound heterozygous state with a pathogenic MUTYH variant in an individual with colorectal and breast cancer (Castillejo 2014). Based on the currently available information, we consider this duplication to be a likely pathogenic variant. -
