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:Likely pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 6 of the MUTYH gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in MUTYH are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 18534194, 20663686). This variant is present in population databases (rs786203161, gnomAD 0.004%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MUTYH-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 186709). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site is associated with inconclusive levels of altered splicing (internal data). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic.

Significance:Likely pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.505-2A>C intronic variant results from an A to C substitution two nucleotides upstream from coding exon 7 in the MUTYH gene. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. 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; however, direct evidence is insufficient at this time (Ambry internal data). 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 likely pathogenic.

Significance:Likely pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant causes an A to C nucleotide substitution at the -2 position of intron 6 of the MUTYH gene. This variant may also be known as c.421-2A>C and c.463-2A>C in the literature based on different reference transcripts. Splice site prediction tools predict that this variant may have a significant impact on RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. However, a different variant at the -1 position of this splice site with the same predicted splicing impact has been observed in an individual with a pathogenic MUTYH covariant and early-onset attenuated polyposis (PMID: 16557584, 19032956). This variant has been identified in 2/282836 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 Likely Pathogenic.
