Genes affected
NTHL1 (HGNC:8028): (nth like DNA glycosylase 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a DNA N-glycosylase of the endonuclease III family. Like a similar protein in E. coli, the encoded protein has DNA glycosylase activity on DNA substrates containing oxidized pyrimidine residues and has apurinic/apyrimidinic lyase activity.

Collection Method:clinical testing

The NTHL1 c.274C>T (p.Arg92Cys) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.13% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). The in silico tool REVEL predicts a deleterious effect on protein function, but to our knowledge this prediction has not been confirmed by functional studies. This variant has been reported in individuals with colorectal cancer, breast cancer and precursor B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (PMID: 32620917, 32295625, 32620917). It has also been identified in 3/1358 non-cancer controls collected as part of a study of individuals with multiple primary cancers (PMID: 29641532). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals with NTHL1-associated polyposis. In summary, the evidence currently available is insufficient to determine the clinical significance of this variant. It has therefore been classified as of uncertain significance. -

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

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. -
