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]

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

Variant summary: MUTYH c.998-9C>T alters a nucleotide located at a position not widely known to affect splicing. Consensus agreement among computation tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00039 in 224190 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in MUTYH causing MUTYH-Associated Polyposis (0.00039 vs 0.0046), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.998-9C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with colorectal/breast cancer (example, Aretz_2006, Kury_2007, Sulova_2007, Yurgelun_2015, Tung_2015). These report(s) do 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. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 16557584, 17931073, 17524638, 25186627, 25980754, 20725929, 38806232, 34326862, 32386558, 17368238). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 132703). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

Significance: Likely benign

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 MUTYH c.998-9C>T variant was identified in the heterozygous state in 3 of 3178 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.0009) from individuals or families with Lynch syndrome-associated cancer and/or polyps, or FAP/AFAP (Yurgelun 2015, Aretz 2006). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs3219488) as “With other allele”, ClinVar (classified as benign by GeneDx; as likely benign by Invitae, Color, Prevention Genetics and Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano; and as uncertain significance by Integrated Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America). The variant was not identified in UMD-LSDB. The variant was identified in control databases in 103 of 251118 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0004 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: African in 1 of 22150 chromosomes (freq: 0.00005), Other in 9 of 5946 chromosomes (freq: 0.002), Latino in 20 of 31626 chromosomes (freq: 0.0006), European Non-Finnish in 62 of 112936 chromosomes (freq: 0.0005), East Asian in 10 of 17302 chromosomes (freq: 0.0006), and South Asian in 1 of 28788 chromosomes (freq: 0.00004), while not observed in the Ashkenazi Jewish or European Finnish populations. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and 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. -
