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]

This missense variant replaces arginine with leucine at codon 182 of the MUTYH protein. This variant is also known as c.503G>T (p.Arg168Leu) based on an alternative transcript, NM_001048171. 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 reported for this variant. However, two other missense variants at this codon have been reported as loss-of-function in mutation suppressive activity and in vitro glycosylase activity assays (PMID: 20848659, 23322991). This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. Two different missense variants at the same codon, p.Arg182Cys and p.Arg182His, are reported as disease-causing in ClinVar (variation ID: 182689, 187280). These two other missense variants have been reported in heterozygosity with a second pathogenic MUTYH variant in individuals affected with MUTYH-associated polyposis and/or colorectal cancer (PMID: 15366000, 16207212, 16557584, 16890597, 19394335, 20618354). This variant has been identified in 3/282842 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. -

Variant summary: MUTYH c.545G>T (p.Arg182Leu) 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. Different variants affecting the same codon have been classified as pathogenic by our lab (c.544C>T, p.Arg182Cys and c.545G>A, p.Arg182His), supporting the critical relevance of codon 182 to MUTYH protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251468 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.545G>T has been reported in the literature as a biallelic genotype with another pathogenic variant in trans in at-least one individual affected with MUTYH-Associated Polyposis (Thomas_2021) and has also been observed as an informative biallelic genotype in an individual with features of MUTYH-Associated Polyposis tested at our laboratory (internal data). The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 33130102). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 185441). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

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

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 182 of the MUTYH protein (p.Arg182Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs143353451, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of MUTYH-associated polyposis (internal data). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 185441). 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. This variant disrupts the p.Arg182 amino acid residue in MUTYH. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 15236166, 16890597, 18091433, 18301448, 19279422, 20848659, 23322991, 25820570). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. 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:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.R182L variant (also known as c.545G>T), located in coding exon 7 of the MUTYH gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 545. The arginine at codon 182 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This variant has been identified in in conjunction with other MUTYH variants in multiple individuals with features consistent with MUTYH-associated polyposis (Ambry internal data). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the supporting evidence, this variant is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

This missense variant replaces arginine with leucine at codon 182 of the MUTYH protein. This variant is also known as c.503G>T (p.Arg168Leu) based on an alternative transcript, NM_001048171. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported with a second pathogenic variant in individuals affected with MUTYH-associated disease (ClinVar Accession: SCV000215551.7, SCV000938889.6). This variant has been identified in 3/282842 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD).
