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]

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces alanine with threonine at codon 165 of the MUTYH protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast cancer and kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (PMID: 25186627, 26689913, 33471991). This variant has been detected in a breast cancer case-control meta-analysis in 4/60466 breast cancer cases and 11/53461 controls (PMID: 33471991). This variant has also been identified in 12/281892 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. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.A165T variant (also known as c.493G>A), located in coding exon 6 of the MUTYH gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 493. The alanine at codon 165 is replaced by threonine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Familial adenomatous polyposis 2 Uncertain:4

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 165 of the MUTYH protein (p.Ala165Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs201103359, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with MUTYH-related conditions (PMID: 31159747). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 185959). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. 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. -

The MUTYH c.493G>A (p.Ala165Thr) variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals with colon cancer (PMID: 29212164 (2017)), breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMIDs: 25186627 (2015), 30982232 (2019), 31159747 (2019), 33471991 (2021), see LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/)), renal cell carcinoma (PMID: 26689913 (2015)), and biliary tract cancer (PMID: 36243179 (2022)). This variant has also been identified in reportedly healthy individuals (PMIDs: 36243179 (2022), 33471991 (2021), see LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00035 (7/19944 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: MUTYH c.493G>A (p.Ala165Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the HhH-GPD domain (IPR003265) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-05 in 250516 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not higher than the estimated maximum expected for a pathogenic variant in MUTYH causing Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (0.0056), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. The variant, c.493G>A, has been reported in the literature in individuals with a personal- or family history of Breast and/or Ovarian Cancer, and other tumor phenotypes (Tsaousis_2019, Chen_2020). In a recent large study evaluating breast cancer cases and controls in the Breast Cancer Association Consortium (BCAC), the variant was reported in 4/60466 cases, but was also found in 11/53461 controls (Dorling_2021, reported through LOVD). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Seven clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, and all laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The MUTYH c.493G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ala165Thr. This variant has been reported in individuals with breast cancer, an individual with renal clear cell carcinoma, an individual with colon cancer, and an individual undergoing hereditary cancer genetic testing (Supplement, Tung et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25186627; Supplementary Data 12, Lu et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26689913; Table S1, referred to as p.A162T, Raskin et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 29212164; Table S2, Wang et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30982232); Table S5, Tsaousis et al, 2019. PubMed ID: 31159747). This variant is reported in 0.035% of alleles in individuals of East Asian descent in gnomAD. It is interpreted as variant of uncertain significance in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/185959/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
