Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -1 ACMG points: 0P and 1B. BP6

The NM_000535.7(PMS2):​c.1238_1239delAAinsGG​(p.Lys413Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. The variant is present in control chromosomes in GnomAd MNV project. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000709 in 2 alleles, including 0 homozygotes. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type MNV, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid substitution has been previously reported as Likely benign in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. K413T) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected

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]

Collection Method: clinical testing

The PMS2 p.Lys413Arg variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in the COGR, Cosmic, MutDB, Insight Colon Cancer Gene Variant Database, Zhejiang University Database, Mismatch Repair Genes Variant Database, or Insight Hereditary Tumors Database. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs587780041) as “With Uncertain significance allele”, ClinVar (as uncertain significance by GeneDx and Invitae, and as likely benign by Ambry Genetics), and Clinvitae (3x) databases. The variant was identified in control databases in 2 of 30932 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.000065 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: African in 1 of 8716 chromosomes (freq: 0.000115), European (Non-Finnish) in 1 of 14990 chromosomes (freq: 0.000067); it was not observed in the Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, European (Finnish), Latino, Other, and South Asian populations. The p.Lys413 residue is not conserved in mammals and the variant amino acid Arginine (Arg) is present in many animals, including rats, mice, and dogs, increasing the likelihood that this variant does not have clinical significance. The variant was identified with a co-occurring pathogenic STK11 variant (p.Asp194Asn), increasing the likelihood that the p.Lys413Arg variant does not have clinical significance. Computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to rule out 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 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. -

Significance: Likely benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

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. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant causes a deletion of two nucleotides and insertion of two new nucleotides, resulting in a missense variant that replaces lysine with arginine at codon 413 of the PMS2 protein. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with PMS2-related disorders in the literature. This variant has not been identified 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. -
