Our verdict is Benign. Variant got -13 ACMG points: 0P and 13B. BP4_StrongBP6_Very_StrongBP7
The NM_000535.7(PMS2):c.831G>A(p.Thr277=) variant causes a synonymous change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000539 in 1,613,502 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely benign (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. T277T) has been classified as Likely benign.
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]
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.7).

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -

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. -

The PMS2 p.Thr277= variant was not identified in the literature. The variant was identified in ClinVar (classified as likely benign by Invitae, Ambry Genetics, and Color; and as benign by GeneDx). The variant was identified in control databases in 22 of 246186 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00009 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: Other in 1 of 5484 chromosomes (freq: 0.0002), European Non-Finnish in 9 of 111646 chromosomes (freq: 0.00008), European Finnish in 1 of 22300 chromosomes (freq: 0.00005), and South Asian in 11 of 30782 chromosomes (freq: 0.0004), while it was not observed in the African, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, or East Asian populations. The p.Thr277= variant is not expected to have clinical significance because it does not result in a change of amino acid and is not located in a known consensus splice site. In addition, in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign. -
