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]

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

This variant causes a C to T nucleotide substitution at the +2 position of intron 14 of the MUTYH gene. 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. This variant has been identified in 37/282888 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. -

The MUTYH c.1476+2C>T variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals with breast cancer (PMID: 25186627 (2015)) or other unspecified advanced cancers (PMID: 28873162 (2017)), as well as in a reportedly healthy individual (PMID: 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/genes/MUTYH)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.0011 (27/24970 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using software algorithms for the prediction of the effect of nucleotide changes on splicing yielded predictions that this variant does not affect MUTYH mRNA splicing. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

This alteration is classified as 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. -

Variant summary: MUTYH c.1476+2C>T is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. 5/5 computational tools predict that this variant strengthens the canonical 5' splicing donor site (i.e. it seems to change a non-classical splice site into a classic, consensus splice site), therefore no significant impact on normal splicing is expected. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00012 in 251488 control chromosomes, predominantly within the African or African-American subpopulation at a frequency of 0.0012 in the gnomAD database. This frequency is not higher than the expected maximum for a pathogenic variant in MUTYH causing MUTYH-associated Polyposis (0.0046), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1476+2C>T has been reported in the literature as a VUS in 2 individuals affected with breast cancer undergoing multigene panel testing (example, Tung_2014). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with MUTYH-associated Polyposis. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Seven other clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, and classified the variant as VUS (n=6), or benign (n=1). Some submitters cite overlapping evidence utilized in the context of this evaluation. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS). -

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences
Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method: clinical testing

The MUTYH c.1476+2C>T variant is predicted to interfere with splicing. This variant is predicted to restore the donor splice site in intron 14 to a consensus splice site (GT) based on available splicing prediction programs (Alamut v2.11). This variant was reported as uncertain significance in two individuals with breast cancer (see Cohort 1 and Cohort 2 in Supporting Data; Tung et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25186627). This variant is reported in 0.11% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD, and has conflicting interpretations regarding its pathogenicity in ClinVar, ranging from benign to uncertain (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/187040/). Although we suspect that this variant may be benign, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
