Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Genetics and Molecular Pathology, SA Pathology	Apr 19, 2022	The heterozygous variant c.536A>G detected in exon 7 of the MUTYH gene is a missense change resulting in an amino acid substitution from a Tyrosine to a Cysteine at codon 179, p.(Tyr179Cys). This variant has been reported multiple times in both LOVD and ClinVar databases as pathogenic. This variant is one of the common MUTYH pathogenic founder mutations in European populations, which has been reported to co-segregate with colorectal cancer and MUTYH-associated polyposis (MAP) (Aretz et al, Eur J Hum Genet (2014) 22(7):923-9 and Theodoratou et al, British Journal of Cancer (2010) 103(12):1875-84). In populations of European origin, the missense variants p.(Tyr179Cys) and p.(Gly396Asp) account for up to 80% of MUTYH variants identified in MAP patients (Sieber et al, N Engl J Med (2003) 348(9):791-9; Kanter-Smoler et al, Clin Gastroenterol Hepatol (2006) 4(4):499-506 and Aretz et al, Eur J Hum Genet (2014) 22(7):923-9). In healthy controls from different populations, the allele frequencies for this variant range from 0.04 to 0.4% (Aretz et al, Eur J Hum Genet (2014) 22(7):923-9). Functional studies have shown that this missense change disrupts MUTYH protein function (Parker et al, Carcinogenesis, (2005) 26(11):2010-18; Mohsin et al, Gastroentorology (2008) 135(2):499-507 and Ruggieri et al, Oncogene (2013) 32(38):4500-8). Based on current knowledge, this is a pathogenic (Class 5) variant. This patient is a heterozygous carrier of a recessive condition. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Feb 14, 2023	Variant summary: MUTYH c.536A>G (p.Tyr179Cys) 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. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0015 in 251454 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in MUTYH causing MUTYH-Associated Polyposis (0.0015 vs 0.0046), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.536A>G has been reported in the literature in many individuals affected with MUTYH-Associated Polyposis (e.g., Kanter-Smoler, Nielsen_2005). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Several publications report experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, finding that the variant causes loss of protein function, resulting in defective DNA-binding and glycosylase activities (e.g., Komine_2015, Ali_2008). 38 ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) have cited the variant, and all laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Nov 02, 2022	This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 179 of the MUTYH protein (p.Tyr179Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs34612342, gnomAD 0.2%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This variant is a known common cause of MUTYH-associated polyposis (PMID: 23035301). This variant has been reported to co-segregate with disease in individuals affected with colorectal cancer and polyposis (with polyp numbers ranging from 10 to >100) (PMID: 12606733, 16557584, 17489848, 19793053, 21063410, 24444654). MUTYH-related conditions are inherited in an autosomal recessive fashion. However, there is evidence that monoallelic pathogenic MUTYH variants including this particular variant are associated with increased risk of colon cancer (PMID: 16492921, 19394335, 21171015, 24444654). This variant is also known as c.494A>G (p.Tyr165Cys). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 5293). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects MUTYH function (PMID: 11818965, 18534194, 19953527, 20848659). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine	Jul 30, 2015	The p.Tyr179Cys variant in MUTYH is a well-established pathogenic variant for MU TYH-associated polyposis, segregating with disease in multiple affected individu als (Nielsen 2009, Vogt 2009). This variant has also been reported by other clin ical laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID 5293) and been identified in 0.2% (31 0/126692) of European chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, ht tp://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs34612342). Although this variant has bee n seen in the general population, its frequency is low enough to be consistent w ith a recessive carrier frequency. Functional studies indicate this variant affe cts MUTYH enzyme activity (Kundu 2009, Molatore 2009). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for MUTYH-associated polyposis in an autosomal recessive manner based upon presence in multiple affected individua ls, segregation and functional studies.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	St. Jude Molecular Pathology, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital	Aug 31, 2022	The MUTYH c.536A>G (p.Tyr179Cys) is a well-established pathogenic founder mutation for MUTYH-associated polyposis in the European population (PMID: 23035301, 23361220). This variant has been reported to co-segregate with disease in individuals affected with colorectal cancer and polyposis (with polyp numbers ranging from 10 to >100) (PMID: 11818965, 12606733, 16557584, 19032956, 19732775, 27829682). Although MUTYH-associated polyposis is typically caused by biallelic variants affecting the MUTYH gene, there is evidence that monoallelic pathogenic MUTYH variants including this particular variant are associated with increased risk of colon cancer (PMID: 16492921, 19394335, 21063410, 24444654). This variant has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.25% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). The in silico tool REVEL predicts a deleterious effect on protein function, and functional studies have shown that this missense change disrupts MUTYH protein function (PMID: 18534194, 19836313, 19953527, 20418187, 20848659, 22926731, 23108399, 24569162, 25820570). This variant is also known as p.Tyr165Cys in the literature. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina	Jun 14, 2016	Several studies describe the c.494A>G (p.Tyr165Cys) as a common pathogenic variant, also referred to as c.536A>G (p.Tyr179Cys) in the literature. In 2002, Al-Tassan et al. described a family with three siblings with multiple colorectal adenomas and carcinoma, found to be compound heterozygous for the p.Tyr165Cys variant. Four unaffected siblings were all heterozygous for a single variant or homozygous wild-type. Nielson et al. (2005) identified the p.Tyr165Cys variant in a presumed compound heterozygous state in 13 individuals and in a homozygous state in 14 individuals, out of 170 patients with polyposis who previously tested negative for APC mutations. The p.Tyr165Cys variant was the most common variant identified in the study cohort. Control data are unavailable for the p.Tyr165Cys variant which is reported at a frequency of 0.00302 in the European American population of the Exome Sequencing Project. In 2009, Nielsen et al. assessed genotype phenotype relationships of the common p.Tyr165Cys and p.Gly396Asp variants. Patients homozygous for the p.Tyr165Cys variant had a significantly increased chance of developing colorectal cancer compared to patients homozygous for the p.Gly396Asp variant or compound heterozygous for the p.Tyr165Cys and Gly382Asp variants (Nielsen et al. 2009). Ali et al. (2008) demonstrated significantly impaired DNA glycosylase and binding activities of the p.Tyr165Cys variant via in vitro functional assays, which were unable to generate any detectable cleavage products or to bind to the substrates. Similarly, Goto et al. (2010) demonstrated the adenine DNA glycosylase activity of the p. p.Tyr165Cys protein was 4.5% of wild-type. The collective evidence supports p.Tyr165Cys as a pathogenic variant. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories	Aug 07, 2020	The MUTYH c.536A>G; p.Tyr179Cys variant (rs34612342; also known as NM_001048171: c.494A>G; p.Tyr165Cys) has been well described in the literature as one of the two common MUTYH pathogenic variants. It has been observed in homozygous or compound heterozygous form with other pathogenic MUTYH variants in patients with colorectal cancer, familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) or attenuated FAP (Aretz 2014). Functional studies have shown that the p.Tyr179Cys variant results in severely decreased DNA binding and adenine DNA glycosylase activity (Al-Tassan 2002, Ali 2008, Goto 2010, Molatore 2010). Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. REFERENCES Ali M et al. Characterization of mutant MUTYH proteins associated with familial colorectal cancer.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Genetic Services Laboratory, University of Chicago	Jan 11, 2022	DNA sequence analysis of the MUTYH gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.536A>G, in exon 7 that results in an amino acid change, p.Tyr179Cys. This pathogenic sequence change is a known founder mutation in the European population and has been described in the gnomAD database with a frequency of 0.25% in the non-Finnish European population (dbSNP rs34612342). This pathogenic sequence change has previously been described in the homozygous or compound heterozygous state in multiple patients with MUTYH-associated polyposis (PMIDs: 19032956, 11818965; Cleary et al., 2009). Multiple in vitro studies have supported the pathogenic nature of the p.Tyr179Cys change (PMIDs: 24569162, 25820570). The p.Tyr179Cys change affects a highly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the MUTYH protein that is known to be functional. The p.Tyr179Cys substitution appears to be deleterious using several in-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL). -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:6

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	Aug 23, 2021	This missense variant replaces tyrosine with cysteine at codon 179 of the MUTYH protein. This variant is also known p.Tyr165Cys (c.494A>G) based on an alternate transcript NM_001048171. Computational prediction tool suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold ≥0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies have shown that the mutant protein is defective in DNA binding and repair, and glycosylase activity (PMID: 18534194, 19953527). This variant is a well-established pathogenic variant known to cause adenomatous polyposis and colorectal cancer in homozygous and compound heterozygous individuals (PMID: 11818965, 12606733, 16338133, 16492921, 16557584, 17489848, 18534194, 19032956, 19394335, 19793053, 20418187, 21063410, 21171015, 22266422, 23361220, 24444654, 27829682). This variant is one of two most common pathogenic MUTYH variants, which together account for up to 80% of MUTYH-associated disease observed in Caucasian individuals (PMID: 29147111). This variant has been identified in 435/282806 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneKor MSA	Jan 01, 2020	This sequence change replaces tyrosine with cysteine at codon 179 of the MUTYH protein (p.Tyr179Cys). The tyrosine residue is highly conserved and there is a large physicochemical difference between tyrosine and cysteine (Grantham Score 194).This variant, also known as Y165C using an alternative reference sequence, has been published in the literature as one of the two common MUTYH missense mutations in Western populations, and, when found in combination with another pathogenic variant, is known to cause MUTYH-associated polyposis (MAP) (PMID: 19032956). It has been reported to co-segregate with disease in individuals affected with colorectal cancer, familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), and attenuated FAP (PMID: 24444654; 21063410 ; 19793053 ; 17489848, 31159747) Experimental studies have shown that this variant disrupts MUTYH protein function (PMID: 20848659 ; 19953527 ; 11818965 ). The mutation database ClinVar contains entries for this variant (Variation ID:5293). -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Apr 19, 2022	The p.Y179C pathogenic mutation (also known as c.536A>G and p.Y165C) is located in coding exon 7 of the MUTYH gene. This alteration represents a founder mutation in multiple populations and accounts for a significant proportion of pathogenic MUTYH mutations reported to date (Nielsen M et al. Gastroenterology. 2009 Feb;136:471-6; Aretz S et al. Eur. J. Hum. Genet. 2014 Jul;22(7):923-9). A 2-fold increased risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) risk for carriers of a single (mono-allelic) MUTYH mutation has been reported as similar to the CRC risk of those with an affected first degree relative (Jones N et al. Gastroenterology. 2009 Aug;137:489-94; Butterworth AS et al. Eur. J. Cancer. 2006 Jan;42:216-27). A large scale meta-analysis to refine CRC risk estimates associated with MUTYH variants, including more than 20000 cases and 15000 controls, demonstrated an approximately 1.5 fold increase in CRC risk for carriers of the p.Y179C mutation (Theodoratou E et al. Br. J. Cancer. 2010 Dec;103:1875-84). 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 available evidence, this alteration is classified as a pathogenic mutation. -

Carcinoma of colon Pathogenic:2

Pathogenic, no assertion criteria provided	clinical testing	Pathway Genomics	Jul 24, 2014	- -
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria provided	clinical testing	Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System	-	The MUTYH p.Tyr179Cys variant was identified in 878 of 42,504 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.03) from individuals or families with MAP or colorectal cancer (CRC). Of these 292 were heterozygous carriers, 99 were homozygous and 487 were compound heterozygotes. The variant was present in 156 of 31,262 control chromosomes (frequency: 0.005) from healthy individuals (Al-Tassan 2002, Nielsen 2009, Nascimbeni 2010, Theodoratou 2010, Vogt 2009, Sieber 2003). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs34612342) as With Pathogenic allele, ClinVar (classified as pathogenic by GeneDx, Invitae, Ambry Genetics, Color Genomics, Pathway Genomics and more), Clinvitae (classified as pathogenic by ClinVar and Invitae), Cosmic (pathogenic), and in Insight Colon Cancer Gene Variant Database (535x pathogenic). The variant was not identified in MutDB, or UMD-LSDB databases. The variant was identified in control databases in 412 of 277178 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.001486 (Genome Aggregation Consortium Feb 27, 2017). The p.Tyr179 residue is conserved in mammals but not in more distantly related organisms, and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) suggest that the variant may impact the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) do not predict a difference in splicing. In a meta-analysis study (Theodoratou 2010), to assess and refine CRC risk estimates associated with bi-allelic and mono-allelic MUTYH variants, MUTYH bi-allelic carriers demonstrated a 28-fold increase in CRC risk. Significant bi-allelic effects were also observed for G396D and Y179C/G396D compound heterozygotes and a marginal mono-allelic effect for variant Y179C. In summary, based on the above information, this variant meets our laboratory’s criteria to be classified as pathogenic. -
